STORY

---

This is the story subpage for The Nightmare Realm. It contains information about the cutscenes and an overview of the story.

This page contains the official story elements included in Night II of the Hexscape Event. Most of the content is expressed through cutscenes, though some dialogue is important to the storyline.

Story Overview

This is the second night for the Hexscape Event, meaning that the story takes place after the events in Failed Gateway.

T.D.S. Organization agents, after getting sucked into the portal, wake up in an unknown realm. Despite the portal originally leading to Lord Exo's prison, where they ended up is some sort of hellish dimension. The Super Computer used to power the portal also came with them, though the Artificial God Cube and Titus are nowhere to be seen.

Commander, Scout and Minigunner attempt to fix up the Super Computer while fighting off the incoming enemies. During this, it is revealed that the Children of Exo did come here with them and started being active in the realm before them. Based on dialogue, they caused chaos in the realm, large enough to make the inhabitants of this realm unfriendly towards all humans.

After fixing the Super Computer, the agents realize they do not have a power source for it. Dispatcher suggests finding the Artificial God Cube, which is missing until the final wave. There, the Conserver arrives himself to deal with the T.D.S. Organization agents, carrying the cube on its back.

After defeating the Conserver, Commander takes the Artificial God Cube to power the Super Computer. Once powered up, the agents escape through the portal to the Overworld, which was meant to disappear shortly after. This, however, does not happen. The portal remains open, allowing for the enemies from the Hex Realm to enter the Overworld.

Dialogue

During the match, the various narrators mention multiple things that are important to the story.

When the Conserver's name is revealed, they call the realm they are in their realm, making them the lord of it.
