How was the Dark One created, i.e. is he a fallen angel, an inherent part of the universe, etc.?

I envision the Dark One as being the dark counterpart, the dark balance if you will, to the Creator...carrying on the theme, the ying yang, light dark, necessity of balance theme that has run through the books. It's somewhat Manichean i know, but I think it works.

The first rule of being a ninja is "do no harm". Unless you intend to do harm, then do lots of harm.

Using the True Power to win Tarmon Gai'don goes against every moral in the series.
