''The Sensei turns to Dazzling Light. ''Good day.

''Dazzling just sneers at him. ''

Sensei: Now, now. I helped you a great deal...

DL: Yes a whole ton. Now I won't be able to put weight onto my left foreleg because the blade YOUR stupid hallucinations used went through the bone. I hope that Ironworks melts those stupid blades down and uses them for one of his projects. Now why are you here?

Sensei: Ah, yes. I'm here to explain a misconception you've have about the entity known as...."Outline Acolyte." To put this bluntly, he's not a part of Acolyte. He's a trick cast by one of your fellow angels. They are using him to convince you of things. All of Acolyte's soul is condemned to Hell.

DL: W-What? That's a lie!

Sensei: I do not lie Dazzling Light. Unlike Eris, Acolyte did not cast a large enough shadow on the world for it to, literally, manifest into a physical form. You see, the shadow is part of the soul. Some souls cast large shadows that stand the test of time, whilst others cast a barely noticable shadow. Eris lived for thousands of years this caused her shadow to remain after she was banished. Acolyte's shadow died with him.

''Dazzling says nothing. ''

Sensei: Now...I have to explain something else. The reason that I teach mental stability and yet Acolyte lost his mind. Well, the reason is this: When he was still young and ambitious he sought me out. I took him under my wing and I taught him everything I was allowed to teach. About how to bend the force of the dark to his will. But soon he learned up to a certain point. Yet, his thrist for knowledge was not quenched. He begged me to teach him about Chaos magic. So I did. He easily went through this phase of training and was able to bend the very primodial force of the universe to his will, allowing him to travel between dimensions and manifest any item out of thin air. Still, he wanted more. He asked me to teach him about "Nightmare" magic. As you know, this sort of Dark Magic is strictly forbidden. I turned him down thrice, but he persisted and I broke to his will. So, I took out the only book in the library I had never touched.

''A flash of light and a book is levitating next to the Sensei. He hands the book to Dazzling. Dazzling Light opens to the first page and gasps.''

DL: Th-this is th-th-the...

Sensei: Yes, it is the Tome of Nightmares. The most unholy book ever created, written by the demon Nightmare himself. Now...I took the book of the self and begin to teach Acolyte about Nightmare magic, knowing full well the consequences for what I was doing. I had read that anyone that uses Nightmare magic can temporarily tap into the insideous power and cause mass fear and panic. Acolyte, due to his prowess in dark magic, was able to bring the energy of Nightmare into him. He became a Proxy of Nightmare. A literally being of fear and malice. He was able to break the strongest minds. He was even able to invade mine, despite all my skill in blocking out mental attacks. It was truly terrifying to see. Usually power like that would drive a regular unicorn mad in months, but due to Acolyte's training, he was able to hold out against its power for ten years. While he had complete control of the power he didn't age. He was truly immortal. But there was a kink in the system. Fear does not take well to being controlled. It started to try and overtake Acolyte's mind, slowly driving him to madness. He confided in me and he showed true fear in what was happning to him. I advised him to create a serum that would hold off the madness. So he created the Cure-All. It only worked for a few months, unfortunately. Then his mind was completely lost to the nightmares.

Dazzling says nothing...

Sensei: Well, I must be going. I will not expect you to come back. Train with Hokum. ''The Sensei trots out the door. ''
