I guess Taven's ending turned out somewhat... canonic (?). I guess Taven did unitentionally strenghen all the Chosen Warriors of Light and Darkness, rather than weakening them.

And Taven's 'victory' over Blaze might be fake; I suppose that the whole Armageddon-ic adventure (and Argus's and Taven's Great Quest, too) might turn out a mere provocation of the Forces of Evil to make Shao Kahn actually and eventually win.

So Argus and Taven were thinking they are SAVING the worlds, but in fact, they both turned out to be mere 'blind pawns' of the Evil. Such plot twist isn't so unfamiliar in the fantasy genre.
