*NIGHTMARE groans and decides to listen in. It's not like it could be something traumatic from his past. That'd be silly.*
*You can't really use SIVELOS as a meatshield! They're decscending FROM THE SKY, no way to duck under him.*

*The COUNTER DAMAGE doesn't activate! It seems BAAL has an ability to prevent counterattack damage! However, the SWORD REPELLANT works.*

*NIGHTMARE hears two voices, both young kids. One sounds like a childversion of himself, while the other is totally unfamiliar, but some kind of teenager similar to himself.*

???: How did you-the Cloak was supposed to make me invincible! You said so!

???: I said 'ALMOST' anything, you idiot. I know you'd pick the Cloak either way, though. But in any case, you still can't think straight, and you call yourself a conqueror. The Sword here? It's that Cloak's one surefire weakness, its aboslute counter. You ought to have really thought through that I would just GIVE you unlimited invincibility. I could easily trap you in here, even.

???: Ugh, you are a-

*It cuts off. Nothing else happens.*

*Well it clearly wasn't TRAUMATIC.*

((It sure is…))

*Meanwhile, NIGHTMARE is trying to listen in on the past-vision.*
*APOPH dies of descending swords. SIVELOS lives due to SWORD-REPELLANT.*

*The Ghouls realize that the swords, autonomous as they are, will DEFINITELY not be parried by them anytime soon! They're too tightly knit together!

Neo: Come and get it!
*You feel exhausted, and htis move works like Destiny Bond, but you KNOW this won't fail you now. You die horribly, but are revived above the Sword-storm. BAAL's immunity to counterstrike damage still holds true, but above here, BAAL is a sitting duck!*

*You manage to make a hole right through the swords as they continually rust in a constant area, allowing you to get through with some moderate Damage. Your GHOULS follow, but no-one else is close enough to matter. You now have a clear shot at BAAL.*

*This basically summarizes everything. Except, they were both already dead.*

*OMINOUS takes DENNIS and THUNDER, and uses DIG! He goes UNDERGROUND. TAZZ and REBECCA follow suit.*

*BAAL deforms from the EDGE OF THE SKY and switches back to using one sword, trying to make out his surroundings. He still can't see for anything, but that'll wear off quickly so for those that survived, you have a clean, retaliatory-free shot RIGHT NOW! I'd make sure to take this opportunity while you can!*
