[ But Marik risks giving a reason for why he cares, beyond "I want it".
The Ring-Spirit can't help but compare their goals in going home. The Ring-Spirit intends to finish what he'd been interrupted in the middle of: opening the door to the Afterworld. Release the rest of his divine-self into the mortal realm, then tear his own self apart to give back the piece of himself that he carried - destroy the Ring-Spirit, discard the Thief-King, thus making whole the Great Evil God. Thus ensuring that the entirety of the world suffers just as much as Kul Elna, and for just as long.
When he gets home, Marik and his siblings will, all of them, be far worse off than simply dead.
