How ironic... It turns out that the Traveller is the evil entity and the Speaker is a false prophet. The Light is actually the destroying element and the Darkness is simply reacting to having their world's destroyed by the Traveler and are seeking revenge. We have been lied to by this false prophet and duped into creating more destruction and suffering with promises of there one day being a most wonderful plain on which to exist when 'The Light Prevails'! Yeah, sounds about right...
