Thus prepared, the four can enter the Womb of Hell to search out and destroy the Nightmare Child. Madame Raven, clairvoyant sorceress of the Psycho Circus, has a plan - recruit four unsuspecting avatars and have them collect the remains of the Elder's power.

The Four Who Are One, the Elder, once proud champions of the realm, can only drift helplessly through the abyss and watch events unfold as the Destroyer's creation fills the space vacated by their disappearance. With the last vestiges of his strength, the Nightmare King plants a seed of evil in a far off, desolate corner of the cosmos, hoping to rekindle his power in a new form, that of the Nightmare Child. Or have they? In his last desperate (or planned?) act, the Destroyer captures the Elder spirits and pulls them down into the void with him. After a fearsome battle, the Elder have finally defeated the Nightmare King.
