Ruin is the embodiment of entropy and decay; it seeks change, so that all may age and pass.{{wob ref|4130}} It is not inherently evil, as without change there can be no life, but its destructive actions are often contrary to life existing peacefully.{{wob ref|10203}}{{wob ref|7950}} This approach to Ruin as simply inevitable decay is largely due to [[Ati]]'s original kind nature, as he deliberately channeled Ruin towards a more peacable state. In other hands, the Shard would've been a far more destructive force.{{wob ref|10334}}
It is the polar opposite of [[Preservation]] -- a relation most other Shards don't have.{{wob ref|5518}} Since the [[Final Ascension]], Preservation has tempered Ruin's intent, which also makes it difficult for anyone holding [[Harmony]] to take direct action heavily favoring one side or the other.{{book ref|mb5|7}}
