The problem is that the Creator can't interact directly with the world he created. That was in TPTP. If he does then the world ends.
Mystries abound!

He said to build an Ark - "noah my son - here is some wood & nails - this is what a boat looks like - nail wood together into boat shape - don't forget to collect those animals - see you in 40 days....."
Creator to Berek " right Berek - you need to get a boat of some description - tell them to sail to these co-ordinates - look! just follow the stars ok? - when you get to this deserted island, you'll see a big tree - dont go chopping it down for firewood ok? - just lop off a branch - about 6 feet in length - stick these here metal bits on, carve it up like so - and hey presto - one Staff of Law!! - by the way I gotta go so you're on your own now... just keep an eye out for some chap called foul - apparently he will have it in for your grandson...byee"
LOL!!!

Well, it's the only thing we really have to go on, so we sure want to take it at face value. But maybe the legend is simply not 100% accurate.wayfriend wrote:Apparently so.sweetbread wrote:Was he guided by the Creator???
In [u]Lord Foul's Bane[/u] was wrote:"In sorrow and humility, the Creator saw what he had done. So that the plight of the Earth would not be utterly without hope, he sought to help his creation in indirect ways. He guided the Lord-Fatherer to the fashioning of the Staff of Law, a weapon against Despite. But the very Law of the Earth's creation permits nothing more."
Of course, with what we learned in FR, we can retcon an explanation.
