It would be a masterpiece that would make Tarquin really proud of him.
As seen during the comics and with all the issues about his family he is starting to become merciless, even though it can be considered wisdom.
There is as well, this small reference of a "detect evil" check on him, saying "still not evil", that left me thinking.
So yeah, my unprovable theory is that Elan will make a twist to the dark side.
