Default Creator-Preservor-Destroyer OR Why Sarda Must Die

So what we have here is a case where WM created the Universe and then disappeared completely to give way to Sarda who managed things up till now. If the trend continues it seems to me that Sarda must somehow "disappear" to make way for the Destroyer, probably BM, so that the cycle can be made complete. Thus I am guessing that the Onion Kid is going to lose yet another guardian.

Did WM create the universe? Or did Sarda just lead WM to believe that?
In Sarda's ascended logic, the concept of existence and non-existence could be a false dilemma, why does something have to be created to exist? Simple! To appeal to the limited minds that cannot comprehend the layers of reality Sarda lives in.

I think it's interesting that people even try to rationalize Sarda's situation, where in fact he's made it quite clear that his position is too obfuscated from reason for mortals to understand, which should clearly include the readers of the comic.

C',mon, I respect alternative view points, but that is still stretching it. The story thus far leads us to believe that it was WM who did it. Sarda even commented about how he knew what people he screwed with felt like now.

Anyways, Sarda has two running trends going against him and pointing to him dying. My guess is that Ranger will kill Sarda in some improbable way and become the new guardian of Onion Kid, thus sealing Ranger's fate as well.

We know that Black Mage is the Destroyer. At least, in his Hell King form.

Something difficult to precisely identify about the latest comic (Sarda-Ranger confrontation) makes me think Sarda is about to die.

1) The fact that Ranger is still alive despite the fact that Sarda could have finished him by now?

2) The way Sarda sent the O'kid into another room?

3) The way its anticlimatic for Ranger to die and we want to see something interesting?

4) The other two reasons I have already listed?

Who says he was screwing with her by doing that? I'd take a wild guess, but when you are above the level of gods and try to explain to mortals who worship them the truths of the matter they tend to be disenchanted, like with all magic -> science.
He could have been preserving her mental and emotional wellbeing for all I know, among millions and millions of other possible theories pertaining to obscure metaphysics and an equally obscure house pantheon.

More like how Sarda suddenly and inexplicably started talking like an amalgamation of Black Mage and Red Mage.

Awake was talking about when Sarda realized that he screwed himself over by sending her to the "pocket dimension".

Red King has a spectacular disco-style aura about.

I think if Sarda was going to die it would have been when Berserker tried to Berserk him, something tells me he won't die though. Maybe because of how omnipotent he is. Or because the universe exists to hurt BM and nothing would make him happier than Sarda dying. Or that fact that Ranger and Ranger and was bested by Red Mage and Black Mage.

Or maybe it's the fact that I really wanna see Ranger die and like Sarda.
