Even if they ''think'' this would work, all it would take to scuttle this idea would be for Loki or Tiamat (or Rat, assuming he's not still too angry to speak to the guy) to tell the Dark One that the IFCC won't even remember him during the interim.

After all, he always ''consults'' the clan elders, but nobody has yet said he has to ''obey'' them. And since the entire prophecy involving Durkon up to and including everything following Durkon's return was a huge BatmanGambit by Odin, this makes Dvalin's stalling all the more likely and Odin the probable mastermind.

This places them in control of purple quiddity, and with this they can make demands to pantheons, for whatever their next stage is.

Besides, while V might be one of the few who'd be willing to make a deal, the elf is also the most likely to kill the dragon, or at least, to play a large role in the dragon's demise. While everyone else is using material weapons (1d4 daggers and arrows (plus about 3d6 in sneak attack), a 1d10 hammer, a 2d6 greatsword and Elan wasn't even fighting directly), V was using ''Disintegrate'' at the earliest available opportunity (bare minimum 24d6 points of damage), which made them the most likely to actually kill the dragon, or at least, the biggest contributor in terms of raw damage, and thus the primary target for the dragon's mother. Assuming, of course, the original plan wasn't just for the dragon to kill them, which would eliminate competition for the Linear Guild and thus the IFCC.

* We know he actually counts as a deity; he managed to weakly smite Roy early on, and Odin was considering accepting him to the pantheon.
* If he requests membership again, Odin probably would allow him; they are desperate to get the vote they need.

Alternate to the above: Right-Eye once called The Dark One a "Petty, spiteful god". Perhaps he ''wants'' the world to be destroyed, because he commands the worship of most of the goblinoid population. Goblinoids are a fast-breeding species, so they probably have a sizable population, even with all the adventurer purges. As such, he would benefit greatly from the souls of the goblinoids, possibly making him even more powerful than Hel.

When Blackwing saw the world within the Snarl's realm, he was really staring at its very core. The gods' conflicting plotlines formed that world, but it's incomplete because it doesn't make any sense. The Snarl doesn't kill, it absorbs, and it won't stop until it makes sense.

The Dark One doesn't want to get the goblins all killed along with the rest of the world, so he may very well choose to come in. However, he is a clever fellow and he might threaten to withhold his vote unless the rest of the gods allow equality for goblinoid species.
