Well you have to wonder, what is Sarda going to do after he kills them all?

Go off and create his own universe? Maybe have life in it?

Hilariously, I get where this is coming from, and it makes a lot of sense. I don't have a great deal of confidence that it's right, but I love the theory.

EDIT:
Quote:
- Red Mage suggests sacrificing what's most important to them to summon something powerful enough to defeat Sarda to their aid. Red Mage sacrifices his seemingly-infinite knowledge (Hence his hesitation to say he has a plan), Thief sacrifices his skills as a thief/con-artist, Fighter sacrifices all the power he's gained (Which he views as important for its ability to protect), and Black Mage sacrifices himself/his evil.
This fits with the thing where Sarda talked to the LWs about "having to sacrifice what's closest to you for power", and I've been wondering where that is going to come in.

Um...


Is there a plot incoherency or am I dreaming?

Before coming to this alleged incoherency I was wondering... Didn't Red Mage read the EMPTY datasphere? Emptied from Black Mage previous reading.
How could he acquire infinite knowledge if that sph...SQUARE was empty?


As for the main incoherency, Sarda already knew everything the Light Warriors were going to do and everything they were going to say, when Onion kid wasn't around to witness those facts. Sarda also said he existed in six dimensions in time at once. If so he indeed wouldn't need Onion Kid to witness stuff in order to know what is going to happen. Meaning the last comics are incoherent?
I couldn't find the episodes again though but I had them under my eyes just a few days ago.

The possible explanation of "Sarda lied, he didn't know what he claimed to" isn't really satisfying unless it is reported either by Brian or in the comic itself, otherwise it's pretty low speculation.

Hmm.. Sarda has all this magic, i bet he showed OK what else has happened, because Sarda knows what they are doing and what's going on while he isn't there.

And yes, at this point, Sarda doesn't know, in my opinion, what's going to happen. Why wouldn't Sarda get to the beginning of the universe to stop it all and stop White Mage?

I actually think RM's planshould work.

Oh please, if there's any chance of the light warriors succeeding here, it's going to be by accident or circumstance.

Less satisfying than implying that Brian didn't plan this out from the beginning? If he did, and we know he did, the most logical explanation is that Sarda was, in fact, lying.

Black Mage didn't empty it when he glanced at it. Red Mage was looking, dare I say reading, intently and that's what emptied the datasphere.

I don't get why everyone finds this satisfactory and logical.

One minute Sarda gets pre-bored of stuff from the future(notice how he says future, and not past, which implies he can see the future, and doesn't remember his past as onion kid), he openly states he knows what people are going to say because he exists in six directions in time simultaneously which are forward, backward, spiraled, sideways, looped, and cross-wise, and now suddenly he admits himself he can't see the future.

Even if that were true and he was lying up until now, why did he suddenly stop lying? Did he get bored?

I'm guessing it's either there's something not revealed yet, or Brian just doesn't give a damn.

I am inclined towards the latter.

That would be possible Waw, but it's still random speculation until it gets addressed in the comic or by Brian, unless someone points us to another comic that proves these concerns wrong.

Once again, I submit my theory of Astos-style pun-murder. Thief let Fighter do it this time.


Fighter: Brehehehem.

Fighter: IT SARDA IMAGINE HOW HARD WE'RE GONNA KICK YOUR ASS!

Fighter has his arms up. Pause for 3 panels. Sarda explodes.

Sarda kills the LWs, then simply dies of ludicrously old age... The end.

Random off the wall theory time again kids! RM will find a way to send the party forward in time to when Sarda sends himself back to four seconds after the beginning of the Universe, thus negating all advantage Sarda may have. Aside from the Demi-God thing.
