[1.2.398] Minar's Past

This makes no sense. The BlackMage is supposedly already alive in the present. He caused the Big Bang and Chaos. von Leon locked himself up and his castle and swore to come back once his master came back aswell, hence why the castle is accesible again.

I find it going back to the "Black Wings wanna revive the Black Mage" as walking backwards into the storyline and therefore dumb.

It makes perfect sense.

Yes, the Black Mage has been unsealed in the present, but the Heroes are reawakening, the Adventurers are strong, the Cygnus Knights are reorganized, and the Alliance is being reborn.
That's a lot of obstacles in his way.

If Akyrum were to succeed in reviving the Black Mage shortly after the fight that not only resulted in his sealing but also the casting down of Maple's five strongest champions, the Black Mage would be at such an advantage that his victory would have been practically assured.
