Plot
Zevs begins to explain to Spider about the existence of multiple realms and goes onto explain about the creatures known as Nightmares. She then goes onto explain the process of dreams and how Nightmares devour the soul fragments that in order to maintain their forms. Unable to fully comprehend what he's being disclosed, Zevs gives Spider a more condensed version of most of what she's explained. Furthermore, she details that his school was unfortunate how multiple portals to the Nightmare Realm opened up and the Nightmares ate the souls of his students. Aghast by this unfathomable information, Zevs relates with him as she felt the same when she was first told all of this and notes how the universe is bigger than expected.

Spider then asks why the Nightmare that devoured Tori transformed into her. Zevs explains that when a Nightmare devours a soul fragment, it transforms into the fears of that soul. This explains why the majority of them have appearances of monsters. However, if one were to consume a whole soul, it would become a "Formed One". Therefor, it would permanently transform into the appearance of the victims worst fear. As for why Tori is in that form, its because she was afraid that she would in become one. Distraught by everything he's been told thus far, Spider asks if there's a way to save her, however, Zevs much to his dismay, claims that Tori is dead.
