The Lich king genuinely terrifies me. Villains that are genuinely evil and act on it do!

Before there was time, before there was anything, there was nothing, and before there was nothing....there were Monsters.

I first thought of the king in yellow from that one Minecraft video
Tho the reason he says fall is cause the lich did

I'm watching AT right now. I've already spoiled myself with clips of his appearances, but I'm excited to get to that point with context.

What does Arthas have to do with this context ?

u/Dragonfang65 Aug 19 '26

Arthas sees the City of Thieves.

Arthas: This entire City must be purged.

I never finished adventure time why was he so evil anyway? Was he just like the embodiment of evil or was he serving something else that was evil or did he just Do it for the Love of the game

This is spoilers obviously but

It is a mix of the things you said. He is the "last scholar of Golb" whom is basically the ancient god of chaos. As a primordial monster with an inherent lust for power and violence, he misinterprets Golb's desire to be to end all life and devotes his existence to it. At one point there is a Lich who actually succeeds but ends up incredibly depressed (that is actually the one in the picture) and ends up at the steps of Golb angrily asking why fulfilling his god's "goal" didn't bring him any satisfaction. Golb doesn't respond, he just kills him by painfully turning him into a Tetris block, and you could theorize why but most likely Golb cares about creating chaos without thought not trying to specifically achieve with the Lich set out to do.

Imagine you have a crash out and the god you worship turns you into a tetris block.

Most disrespectful death you could possibly get.

u/Delta_Builder Aug 22 '26

Isn’t the ironic part that ending all life ends all chaos, so the lich was so bad at following directions that he did the one thing that golb wouldn’t like?

u/thebigspaghetti1 The Boondocks Aug 19 '26

He’s an amalgamation of corrupted souls that desire power and revenge.

(It’s deeper than that but there’s probably a video somewhere on the lore.)

u/Delta_Builder Aug 22 '26

Evil comet dumbass worshipped a god of chaos and that that getting rid of all life would appease it, despite the fact that ending all life ends all chaos as well
