Editing Great Conflux (section)

== Trivia ==
* While helping prevent [[Escaton]]'s cataclysm during the events of {{mm8}}, Roland noted that the Elemental Lords were the Ironfists' allies only a few months ago, calling them fickle beings, musing that perhaps "treacherous" is a better word for them. Roland was only half-right, because the elemental crisis in [[Jadame]] was caused not by the Lords, but by Escaton's Crystal, their absence actually being what made the elementals susceptible to the Crystal's effects. However, one might indeed call the Elemental Lords fickle in a way, as they evidently changed their approach to Enroth in the time since Tarnum's war with them. [[Dark elf]] legends agree on that, saying that the Elemental Lords "both give life and take it away".
* Roland distrusted his new elemental allies both during and after the Erathia-Kreegan war. Although they never betrayed him and his comrades, one might argue that Roland was at least partially right, given that Tamar's advice to Catherine helped bring about the [[Reckoning]], even if unwittingly.
* [[Xanthor]], who came with Roland and Catherine to [[Jadame]] in order to study the Crystal, noted that Enroth's destruction would create a mighty planar imbalance, victimizing the Elemental Planes, perhaps even destroying or completely changing them. Also, an elemental representative of the Conflux mentions in [[To Kill A Hero]] that the use of the Blade would "consume us all", while speaking to Erathians. The direct threat to the their planes is apparently a reason why the Elemental Lords decided to help.
* Tamar says that he is "also the Elemental Lord of Air" while introducing himself to Catherine in [[To Kill A Hero]]. While he uses "the", he is, strictly speaking, just "an" Elemental Lord of Air. There being minor Lords of Air was mentioned all the way back in {{mm2}}, where the Elemental Planes were first introduced, and also in the sprite [https://web.archive.org/web/20030202235912fw_/http://www.3do.com/products/pc/heroes3/expansion/units/exp_sprite.html unit description] on the official {{ab}} website. Moreover, minor elemental lords are also represented in the Great Conflux through Erdamon. "The" is apparently a simple generalization on Tamar's part.
* The term "[[Elemental Conflux]]" generally refers to places where Elemental Planes connect with the material realm, [[Conflux]] towns being called "elemental Confluxes the size of cities". This coalition is fittingly named after such elemental confluxes.
* According to [[Greg Fulton]] in his [[Greg Fulton/Fanstratics Newsletters/4#Tavern of Might and Magic Interview (part 2 of 5)|Tavern of Might and Magic interview]], "Conflux Heroes and the associated Elemental troops were defenders of the natural world. When there is a threat to its continued existence, they make their presence known, assert themselves, and attempt to eliminate the threat. They have no allegiance to anyone or anything, other than the preservation of the world."
