  1. There's a number of things I find odd about the entire Balthazar chained up in the Mists/Lyssa's mirror situation - either it's 'oh-so-convenient' writing or there's a bigger picture. Rytlock actually stumbling upon his sword. Though we can't say for sure how big that particular area of The Mists is or how long Rytlock was travelling for, since he himself doesn't know (which makes sense), I still find it very convenient he happened to find it. Not only that, but the sword just so happened to end up right next to a chained up ex-God. Again, could just be coincidence - it happens! This shouts for how incompetent the Gods are, but hey, maybe they just don't care. The other thing I find odd is that a portal back to Tyria just so happens to open the moment Balth's chains are cut. Could Balthazar have enough power to open a portal up? Possibly - he relit Sohothin and ended up reforging his armour the moment he was free, but I wonder why he didn't just open up a portal anyway and hope someone stumbles upon him through it and free him. Could be a number of reasons why - he can't guarantee what ends up arriving and it could kill him in his defenceless state for one, but still, a little bit odd. He gets Lyssa's mirror after he was freed to hide himself from the other Gods and general Tyrian citizens until he absorbed enough power. He could have obtained this from her reliquary in Orr, or he could have obtained this somewhere in The Mists from her domain, or it could just be as simple as Lyssa left it with him when he was chained up for...some reason...but we don't know - there's no answer for it. Regardless, Balthazar can't just go wandering through the streets of DR asking if anyone's seen something like it, so he'd have to obtain it relatively early on in the process. Then there's the obvious clue in that he doesn't curse Lyssa in the final battle. This could just be a bug or forgotten line which is meant to be there, which would be a really unfortunate coincidence OR there's a reason he didn't. He's not completely devoid of having compassion for those who helped him after-all, even in his rage. He was quite willing to leave Rytlock alive when we first fight him despite Rytlock being on our side of the fight.
