That would also explain how that great titan was able to forcibly increase the size of the nightmare gate.
Wouldn't it be reasonable to assume that theirs would be a continuation of the power that all Saints possessed? That they would not only contain a Gateway within themselves, but would actually be capable of creating a stable external bridge between the two worlds?

However, there was a single human there, facing the Great horror with indifferent resolve.

Makes sense
Straining itself, the vile bird struggled for a few moments… and snatched those strings, too, somehow ripping them away from his existence.

Well I admit it, I didn’t see that coming.
Just before the net closed, forever sealing the Void, the radiant figure of the seventh god tore seven pieces of itself and sent them flying away. The radiant sparks — much brighter than the remnant sparks of the golden flame that would later become humans — escaped the cage just before it closed.

Without the other gods there was nothing to keep the corruption from spreading throughout the dream realm occupied by the forgotten god.
The realms of the gods were destroyed, consumed one after another by the Dream Realm. Seeds of Nightmare bloomed in its depths, infecting the last remaining realm, the waking world, by a plague of Nightmare Creatures.

When he did notice them, however, and tried to glimpse what was hidden in the folds between the broken pieces of space, he saw millions of dark eyes looking back at him, full of hunger.

Oh the irony
Was he the right person to blame someone for not being entirely honest?

Like I thought he can make more reflections and toss away the corruption which begs the question how did Soul Stealer get defiled? Than again this is the Mad Prince afterall probably found a way.
Turning his head, Kai saw a human figure rolling on the ground in agony. It was Mordret, the scion of Valor… missing a hand and covered in blood. There was something terribly wrong with that lunatic, though. His face, which had seemed to be incapable of showing earnest emotions, was now twisted by a terrible grimace, an eerie darkness devouring his eyes.

Strangely enough, his hateful gaze was not directed at the archer. Instead, Sunny was glaring past him, seemingly at an empty spot.

So this is how corrupted Daeron must been like as the Azure Serpent no wonder he was so ferocious, King’s Resentment indeed.
But he wasn't a corpse. Sunny was still moving, struggling to stand up. Even after battling a Defiled Saint tooth and nail, he was still unbroken, trying to continue to fight.

I’ve seen plenty of good people that seem incompetent because their good nature, but it’s more likely to be handicap driven mindset and when good in them is gone, well, good luck.
Nightingale was a brave, but naive fool… so how much better could his Corrupted version be?

I always believed that there are different strains to corruption and in this case defilement is a variant that maintains one’s rank and core equally while the normal corruption causes a person to be brought back down to a beast in terms of soul cores like what happened with Daeron.
Mordret was merely an Ascended Monster right now, while the Dread Lord… there were five repugnant masses of Corruption hidden in the boundless darkness of his defiled soul, so he had to be a Corrupted Tyrant. The chances of victory were slim.

I believe he just made using the stone found in the source and countless time loops and abominations he fought along the way.
At least he possessed both of his hands here. Sadly, Mordret could only reflect the powers and weapons of the master of the invaded soul, not use his own. And since the Dread Lord had surrendered to Defilement and was thus banished from the Nightmare Spell, there were no Memories here for Mordret to summon.

All of that destruction was done by one core being sacrificed how destructive would it be if she used them all?
She had felt the terrible agony of one of her soul cores — the Terror Core — destroying itself before. But so many Defiled abominations had been consumed by the unleashed flames of her soul that it was reformed anew.

Wow, now that’s how you level up.
