Marathon Trilogy/Fridge

Fridge Brilliance

 * I had wondered why Durandal turned down godhood for a long time. I called it a Wall Banger, I called him too dumb to live, and more, but now I see the reason why. He doesn't want to be alone. Sure, he'd be a god, powerful enough to reshape his new universe, and able to do anything, but he would be alone. Also, he would know everything. He wants to know everything, but once he reaches that goal, he'd have no purpose. He would be lonely and unable to learn. That is a fate worse than death.
 * In Infinity, the W'rkncacnter affects all the timelines.

Fridge Horror

 * In Infinity and in Durandal we find out that the W'rkncacnter are not threatening when trapped in their prisons, however all of their prisons (blackholes, storms, stars, ect.) are temporary at best, meaning they would eventually get out, and having no way to kill them adds to the fear factor.
