A thought about the final bosses of Ys

[gctKAZ]

So it seems like every land that Adol visits has some kind of ancient destructive (optional: super-evil) being that will bring destruction and chaos to the world if left to its devices.

Is it really destruction of the world? Or can they be content to just ruin their homelands without affecting their neighbours? Because even though these lands are mostly disconnected across oceans, presumably they are on the same planet. So why stop the waves of destruction at the land's borders? Would Ernst and Galbalan meet at the borders of their wastelands, bump fists, and say "Yo, 'sup dawg? By the way, you coming over for poker on Friday?" Or would there be an huge evil battle to see who really is the ruler of the planet?

Actually most of them take place on a re-imagined Europe. And most of the final Bosses or main antagonists have something to do with the Eldeen, Feena and Reah's race

...Someone needs to make this happen.

NOW.

Galbalan would probably flatten Ernst for thinking he could control him.

Napishtim would be as boring as ever

Well, if you observe all final bosses...
1. Dahm / Kain Fact would probably try to be the ruler / god of the planet. I don't count Dark Fact since Ys 1 and Ys 2 are technically one game.
2. Galbalan would probably go on to destroy everything since it tells Adol that it would destroy everything that has to do with the Eldeen civilization and its human controllers.
3. Eldeel for Mask of Ys would be same as Dahm since he thinks it's only natural that Eldeens rule over puny humans.
4. Arem for Dawn of Ys pretty much declares to Adol that he will unleash hell on earth before the fight so I guess it's destruction.
5. Jabir is into conquering the world since that's what he used the kingdom of Kefin for.
6. Ernst would try to rule over the world with Napishitim.
7. Tia and her dragon gods are just happy to wipe out all living beings in Altago before Altago's loss of balance harms the rest of the world. One has to wonder how they would feel if they look at the demon beings running amok in other parts of the world. It's kinda funny because Ys Origin explains that if there is light then there has to be darkness so it's only natural that the black peal start producing demons and ruin the kingdom of Ys once Ys enjoys enough prosperity. So what's the proper balance anyway? The one where people get just tortured enough by demons born of darkness but not get wiped out by it?

Looking at all that, Galbalan and Arem are the ones that need to die even for other villains and if those two fail, then it would be a race to world domination between remaining ones except Tia.

You certainly have to commend Adol... he's saved the world from ridiculously powerful entities of destruction so many times yet still lives to tell the tale. That takes one heck of a dude.
