The villains are the Forsaken. If you're going to name the Dark One as the villain, then the Creator is the protagonist. These two gods use proxies to destroy/maintain the Wheel.
It's Rand vs the Forsaken, or the Creator vs the Dark One... you can't mix them.

The Forsaken are not THE villain(s), they are cannon fodder!

Cannoli misses the point. The Forsaken are all villains. It is the Dark One that is the true evil

The Forsaken are henchmen. Like the eels in The Little Mermaid or the hyenas in The Lion King

My point is simply that you are mistaking their place in the hierarchy

The Dark One is the threat. He is the enemy from whom the world needs saving, NOT the Forsaken
