I think you might be jumping to conclusions on nightmare, we know too little about him to know for sure he wants revenge against Alice for what she did to him, and maybe he even wants to help.

Here he says "prevent her doom", I think he talks about Daydream.
You do have a point though, Nightmare taking over Derrick too often would be bad.
Daydream did adress nightmare around these pages https://mspfanventures.com/?s=3039&p=2997

Right, i'll edit out the rehash of what Zendo did since she already knows about that, but we have to bring the Arena of Darkness up again, since last time i did, i didn't actually mention it was Nightmare's plan, just made an oblique question about it which DD dismissed.

What's interesting about that first link, i that i think Nightmare might've been talking about Emily who needed saving. And yea, pitting DD against him is bad, and i'll also edit that part out.

Still have to ask about what's the exact end-game tho, sorry if that'll come across as cold. There's no easy way to ask "will everybody just DIE when all this ends?" :I

>Bob: Daydream, please listen carefully, we may not have much time before Emily is pulled back to the main timeline. To be honest we've been rather ambivalent towards you all this time, not fully sure whether we can trust you. But seeing as how you kept your promise and how Emily has readily offered to help you, i believe we can trust you to make the right choices with her as your moral compass. It's about Nightmare slowly clawing his way inside the construct. We know not yet the full scope of his ambition, but we do know it's game-changing. And it involves the Arena of Darkness. We need to know what that is and whether we should be worried. He is very much a wild card in this regard, so i am deciding to fully side with you. Also, please, for your own sake and Derrick's, make an effort to change your ways. Make this the iteration where everything is fixed. You have the power to undo the damage that you've caused. Not many get that kind of second chance ...soo, is there a chance that you can stop Alice from ra... from taking advantage of Derrick this time around, or is it already too late? If so, maybe you could use Emily's time-traveling powers to repair that blunder? Since the Event Horizon is somewhat outside the normal time-stream of the Construct, you should be able to remember this conversation without having to create a stable time-loop first. Also, another thing that's been bugging me is... Lucas has been killing his in-construct self all these billions of iterations in order to keep up the charade, but Emily here is the only one we've seen thus far. What will happen with the in-construct selves once your plan succeeds? Will their memories merge with the originals? Will they outright replace the originals? And most importantly... what sort of faustian deal did you broker in order to erect the Construct in the first place?

Also, wanted to mention that DD sowing Bob's mouth shut reminded me of his old music-video:


I just now found out it was based of a PlayStation game, and apparently they re-released the remastered version for PC a year ago xD ...maybe they'll also do that for Fable2 in another decade or 2 :))
