serafina20I'm beginning to think that what Jor-El wanted for Clark was not what was originally intended by the kryptoninans who put the caves in Smallville. Whoever did the caves put in safe guards to stop Naman from ruling the world, right?
First there is the prophecy: Zigith and Naman will be the balance between light and dark (good and evil?). Balannce is important, and it seems that Zigith's role is more important because, without him, Naman could take over the world and abuse his power. It doesn't say anything about Zigith, so, presumably, he exists only when Naman is there and active.
Second, there's the fact that Walden got all those powers, presumably to control Clark. Now, if![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
rosenho is right, and those were Lex's power, the powers and intention wasn't to kill Clark/Naman, but to keep him in check and stop him from taking over the world.
Then there's the knife. Now, I'm a little confused as to the knifes purpose. It was supposed to identify Zigith, but wasn't also supposed to give him the power to kill Naman? (I need to rewatch the episode to remember). It would be logical to assume that the knife was given into Zigith's care to use in the event Naman tried to conqure the world. But it disinigrated when the Luthor's touched it, so I'm not quite sure how useful it was.
Jor-El, however, seems to want to disregard this prophecy. He thinks his son is the force of good and power, and therefore should use his power to straighten up the foolish mortals (his reasons are wonderfully illustrated in a fic byhappyminion, btw). However, that was not Naman's original purpose, so ...
I'm just wondering where it's all going.
