I get the impression that, having created Azem's crystal, he still had something of a sentimental streak and "took Azem to exciting places". (Inbetween conquering and ruining interesting places, but it's the thought that counts...)
That's the feeling I got. Seriously I wanted to have a sassy line of something like "Of course you did. You had how many years to travel? Partly to scope out places to use as rejoining sites; I'm sure.". As how else would there be sentimental nods to explain why symbols of Azem pop up every where?
