Summary: Leaving Godric to his own devices is a bad idea--it's even worse when Morass is there to take advantage of the situation.

Salazar and Godric are very complementary personalities. Salazar keeps Godric from getting himself killed, Godric keeps Salazar grounded and is an expert at chasing away his gloom. They can exasperate each other, but even then, there is usually a playful edge to their bickering. It's such a fun dynamic to write. I think one of Salazar's main frustrations isn't that Godric doesn't understand subtlety, but rather that he doesn't understand why it is necessary; he is far too trusting. Even Morass' "lesson" does very little to change that, in the long run.
Morass called himself an "acolyte of Chaos," and that is a fair description. The war is two things to him: a game, and a challenge. In a way, you could say that Warin is to blame for the war, but only because Morass is very selfish, even when he thinks he is being altruistic.
Sorry for the late reply; I spent all of yesterday in transit, but I'm home now, and hopefully I'll be able to get the next part up soon. Thanks for the wonderful comments!
