Predictions for 5.3?

[KageTokage]

I'm really scratching my head as to how Elidibus' little scheme of sending a mess of WoL wannabes running about Norvrandt is going to end up being a thorn in our sides.

Unless perhaps he wants them to somehow throw things out of balance and restart the flood of light... assuming that's even possible.

Perhaps whatever new dungeon is announced in 5.3 might give us some ideas.

I woudne't pit it past him to speak the half-truth of the Warriors of Darkness clashing with the Warriors of Light once, or do something to the vein of the bloody banquet and frame the current Warrior of Darkness for murder (perhaps of the Exarch or "Ardbert"?) to force a repeat of history (in that those that helped saved the world are vilified for it)

The problem here is the Flood of Light wouldn't do anything for Elidibus at the moment because without Black Rose there is no pending calamity that we are aware of to allow a Rejoining to take place. That would be counterproductive for Elidibus to do to say the least. My guess goes back to his speech about wanting to 'keep us mired in the first', it seems to be an action more to disrupt our progress specifically. But how he intends to do so? That's still a hard thing to determine, as he basically creating a bunch of people with hero complexes.

My theory he intends to mislead these heroes against us somehow, maybe by creating an illusion of some kind of threat, though I must say trying to pin anything on the "Warrior of Darkness" normally would be difficult. Then again, get enough people who think they're doing the right thing and I wouldn't be surprised on what they could do.
