The Dark Druid has seen much in his 500 years, and learned a great deal. But the most beautiful of his discoveries was the power of Quintessence, the very stuff of life itself. And by harvesting this Quintessence, Nergal has taken the first great step on the path to immortality. Just a little more, and it can be his. And what better place to harvest such lives than the Duelling League? Surely few can can stand before his mighty Ereshkigal for long. And even fewer will be able to pierce his dark robes, brimming as they are with vital quintessence. Yes, it's a foolproof plan, and once he conquers the Duelling League, the world will be a delicate oyster before Nergal, all too easy to break for the precious pearls within. Just don't mention his two ugly losses and crushing downgrade to his face.
