windlnk on Conspiracy theory Nicol Bolas master …

6 years ago

Basically I'm going to explain Bolas' master plan since the eldrazi were released and how he has manipulated it and what I think his final goal is going to be. (This is all based on the idea that his current goal is regaining his godlike powers he lost in the mending.)

It starts roughly 100 years before the current story events when Bolas starts gathering pieces for his plan B (plan A is the one on Alara that Ajani messed up.) When he helps Liliana make her pact with the 4 demons. Mainly the 2 on inninstrad are the ones I'm going to be focusing on here. fast forward to about when the eldrazi are released and Bolas Gives an order to Kothoped to have Liliana fetch the Chain Veil. (we've seen with Razaketh that he can order these demons around.) Additionally he had Griselbrand intentionally allow himself to be imprisoned in the Helvault. The ultimate goal of all this is that Liliana destroys the vault and frees Nahiri right as she can see the titans loose on Zendikar. yadda yadda yadda the end result of all this is that he knows that Nahiri drunk with rage will lure one of the titans to inninstrad to get revenge on Sorin which she does. Essentially Emrakul's imprisonment within the silver moon was also part of Bolas' plan. This is where things get iffy but basically the general idea of all of this is that encased in a moon made of silver Emrakul will be able to be transported by a replica of Urza's time machine and be sent back into the past of Dominara (moved there by Tezzy and the planar bridge). (More logically the whole thing with the planar bridge is that it can transport the lazotep coated undead army to any plane bolas wants but this is more fun.) Since this theory doesn't really explain what bolas needs Amonkhet for I've devised a little bit of crackpot nonsense to explain it. The reason Amonkhet is important is because it is the home of Spatula of the Ages (Notice the Egyptian marking on the card.) Which is capable of playing down the Time Machine due to it's silver border. Which is the only reason he would go to Amonkhet in the contingency of this theory it's how he gets the time machine.
