I addressed this in one of my posts. King Thordan =/= Archbishob Thordan VII

If it was power for its own sake that he was after, there was no reason for him to wait to pull out the primal card after he got his hands on the key to Azys Lla. He could have cracked open the containment bays and slurped up all the eikon juice while we were still dismantling golems in Idyllshire. He didn't do that. He waited for us to arrive to Azys Lla and duke it out with Lahabrea and Igeyorhm to see if we could take them out on our own before wasting that one chance he had at killing them. It's only after when it becomes clear that two Ascians is too much for one WoL to handle that he transforms to finish off Lahabrea.

I'm not saying that Thordan was a hero. Not after what he did to Zephirin and the others. I'm merely contesting the claim that he was a power-hungry megalomaniac.
