After comic 546, Redcloak is going to be more wrathful than ever. He's just been firmly contradicted in an discussion of REASON with his own argument by a HUMAN, worse, a PALADIN, a member of the GUARD to be the capper! And reason is the very last thing that Redcloak thinks Paladins have! The idea that a paladin could be more rational than him is intolerable for Redcloak. Paladins are less than robots to Redcloak, the idea that one could actually think something out clearer than him outside of their programmed instructions is a direction contradiction to his argument against the Paladin class. And sacred creed of the Evil alingment, someone contradicts you, remove the someone!
On promises, in retrospect, it's fairly easy to understand, while Redcloak is fighting for the greater good of his race as he sees it, he's contradictively trying to follow his Evil Alingment as blindly as Miko did her Good Alingment (the two should have dated). And Promises to Lawful Neutral and Lawful Good alingments are something sacred, even if you realize you made a mistake by MAKING that promise before, you don't just ditch that promise and pretend you didn't make it.
While for Lawful Evil this mentality can exist, it's much more common for promises to be abused by their wording.
So for Redcloak to see someone willing to follow a silly promise no matter what, because "a promise is a -promise-" is completely irrational to him. More than that, incomprehensable.
And here's the REALITY of it:
Redcloak could TELL O-chul was lying about the finer details of the illusion gate. YET at the same time, he can't accept or won accept that O-Chul WASN'T lying when he said before he had no clue about the details of the two gates.
Forget becoming like Xykon, Redcloak is growing into his own brand of evil with a capital E.
