hey ive just had a thought of why they have a statue of malefor in the temple.....it may be to remind them of why they need to train so hard as they may have know that one day he would escape. Does anybody know if hunter is gunna be a main character or is he just there to free spyro, cynder and sprax ?

Wait? On the Spyro's lair website, where it used to have the Sierra logo it has the Activision logo? What does that mean, its not going to be made by sierra?

Let's see

  • Why would they so place a statue right at their home of Maledor if they hated him?
  • How could they hate the dragon that they have worked so hard to help him out

To be true, they made it as honoring Malefor, they're sad that he had turned to darkness, so they made a statue as homage to him

Why would there be a statue of Malefor in the Dojo? He sent an army to destroy Spyro's egg and the Guardians. Wait, I have an idea! Maybe Malefor isn't the DM! Have we ever heard the producer's or game characters say for sure that Malefor is the DM? Maybe he is an ancient hero; he could have been the dragon we saw escaping from the Well of Souls when Spyro met the Chronicler. Maybe the mountain of Malefor is named after Malefor because he is a bid hero, and that is where he and the DM last fought. Or it could be that he was trapped with the DM.
