Princes of Oblivion: Philosophy

Now comes my attempt on the princes main characteristics, in the form what kind of philosophy/psychology they maintain. And of course it is only my interpretation, but I am pretty pleased with the finished work. I intentionally let Jyggalag apart and just call the sixteen in eight pairs. (Now I see there is an unused comparision with THE eight, hmm. I will bring up a second version for that.) It shows both the positve message and the possible negative outcome (or the just the other side of the medaillon). Let the curtain rise:
