I don't mean the significance of the rider, his purpose, I am just talking about the name.Basically, the name Conquest is replaced by the name Pestilence for some reason I do not know.Not in the Bible, or some other religious book / writting, but in people's vocabulary.

Trust me, I study phylology.When there is a discution about words, I am to be expected to "ride in" ( pun totally intended )


And I am sorry about being mean, it's just that I know it for sure, and aparently there was a misunderstanding betwen the subject.I am just talking about the name.Sorry for hurting you, it's just that I tend to be really aggressive when I try to prove a point without actually having "solid" proof to prove it with.

Dude don't be sry cause your trying to prove something :D even if it sounded mean to some1. And yes i know that the word "Conquest" is in the Bible not "Pestilence" cause I know.

the name conquest is replaced by pestilence due to writers within the 1700's most notably a french writer (with some long complicated french name) who actually wrote "and the four of the lord rode out upon the earth, and the angels were absent, pestilence, famine, war and death, heralding the Armageddon"...

i wasn't actually hurt bro i was just having a wee crack ;) no harm no foul haha

anyway this has got way off topic.

soon we will start spouting religious views on how dota should be the only religion in the world (totally agree btw) and all should bow down before the great and powerful icefrog haha

I WILL DESTROY YOU ALL.... WITH FLUFFY BUNNIES
