If you leave these people alone a lot of people will suffer. Xykon accumulates power by gaining levels because thats how a sorceror gets stronger, Tarquin accumulates power by subjugating people and taking their magical trinkets. Both are growing in threat factor. Both have the potential to do a lot of damage. Both offered the same deal to a protagonist.
