The Nightmare

The Nightmare is the name for a realm within the Dreaming which was ruled over by Malus, a physical manifestation of malignance created by Freddie Kroaker which fueled and was in turn fueled by the hatred, fury, and prejudices of the peoples of Wallaru. The Wizard, with a fortified and resilient mind due to not being from the Spiral, was tasked by Morp with entering the Nightmare and destroying Malus following Freddie Kroaker's defeat, as Malus's influence was ruining the ongoing negotiations between the world's factions and risking a civil war. Sneaking past Broken Dreams, dispelling physical manifestations of each faction's hatred, the memories of Rama-Krok and the Didgeri Dragon, and otherwise working their way through a junkyard maze, all with the guidance of Sybil, they ultimately fought and defeated Malus at its center, freeing Wallaru of the increasing hold the creature had over their minds.
