Whenever I think about Zoot, Power and Chaos and the Chosen I always find myself thinking about what came of Zoot's reign of terror... The Guardian.

    But I always think that the Guardian was, and indeed still is, far more evil and twisted than Zoot.

Let me explain why; whenever I think about the Guardian I also think about Tai-San's words to describe him in the Chosen episodes of season three.
Do you remember what she said to him when the Praetorians were holding the captive Mallrats trapped in the Mall which was about to explode and the Gaians were hanging around outside the gate helpless to stop him?
    Tai San: "I have seen into your heart and you are kind and gentle."

taisan : i have seen into your heart...
    This sentence which only comes up to twelve words totally belies the Guardian in my book. And another springs to my mind when I think about them and that is: bull. Pure bull.

    Tai-San's words do not describe the Guardian when she's trying to talk him out of detonating the bomb and killing everybody in the mall including himself.
    I simply do not recognize the man she describes in that desperate yet passionate plea.

Whenever I try to describe the Guardian in my head and think about what I would have told him in that situation, I always come up with the total mirror opposite of what Tai-San thinks up...

I'll give you my description of this truly evil man but before I do that let's compare and contrast him with somebody else that is like him but at the same time completely different.
    I'm talking about the man who brought the Guardian into existence, the guy who began the philosophy that is Power and Chaos...
-    Zoot.
