Queen Morgan le Fay tries to win Holger for Chaos:
"'What is there about dull Law that drives you to defend it?...
"'...the mirth and thunder and blazing stars of Chaos would be yours...
"'You could hurl suns and shape worlds if you chose!'" (p. 68)
She sounds like Raor of the Exaltationists:
"'We would have made [the universe] what we chose, and unmade it and remade it, and stormed the stars as we warred for possession, with an entire reality the funeral pyre of each who fell and entire histories the funeral games, until the last god reigned alone.'"
-Poul Anderson, The Shield Of Time (New York, July 1991), PART TWO, 209 B. C., p. 118.
The former reminded me of the latter.
It is time to eat and drink something and to say good night until tomorrow.
