{{Quote|Do not interfere, Guardian. I am Cabal, and this conquest is mine to claim. There must be a proving. An acceptance from the old ways.

As Caiatl watched the Guardian complete each severance ritual from her ship, the Nightmare of Dominus Ghaul continued to haunt her relentlessly. As the Nightmare of the Dominus was the only thing standing between her and Calus, Caital prepared to assist the situation, by confronting Ghaul's Nightmare. However, Eris was afraid that severance wouldn't work because Caital was not bound by the initial binding ritual and advised the Empress to stay aboard her flagship until Eris could think of another solution. Unfortunately, Calus took advantage of this and manipulated his daughter. With her patience at its limits, Caital sent out a message to the Vanguard, issuing her challenge to the Nightmare of Ghaul. In a panic, Eris sent the Guardian to make sure that Caital was alright. As the Guardian continued to make their way towards Caital's position, the Empress kept asking the Guardian not to assist her. However, Eris kept telling Caital to at least wait until the Guardian made it to her location. All the while the Nightmare of Ghaul continued taunting her about how weak and pathetic she had become now, even mocking her about how she failed to protect [[Torobatl]] from Xivu Arath's Invasion. After the Guardian finally arrived at Caital's position and began the severance ritual, she looked upon the Nightmare of Ghaul and told it how she idolized and looked up to Ghaul as he taught her to be fierce. However, the Nightmare scolded the Empress, stating that she had forgotten his teachings which led to Torobatl burning under her banner and forcing her to seek the aid of humanity, who were originally her enemies. As the ritual commenced, Caital strained and struggled against the Nightmare of Ghaul as the Guardian fought another Nightmare of the Dominus. After slaying the second Nightmare, Caital was brought to her knees and became heavily exhausted as the Nightmare of Ghaul shouted at Caital, telling her that she was not "the Caital that Ghaul trained" and demanded to know where that Caital was.

After slaying the second Nightmare, Caital was brought to her knees and became heavily exhausted as the Nightmare of Ghaul shouted at Caital, telling her that she was not "the Caital that Ghaul trained" and demanded to know where that Caital was. The Empress responded that "she Died" when Torobatl fell along with Ghaul's lessons. To which The Dominus's Nightmare acknowledged this and stated that, Torobatl is where the old Caital would stay. Eris informed the Empress that, without the binding ritual, the Severance ritual had failed. Furious, Caital told Eris that she didn't need a "Hive Tainted Witch" to explain her failure. Eris obliged and ended the communication. | ||
After this failure, Caital shamefully met with Eris, and asked if her ritual would have prevented her failure. At first, Eris mocked Caital, asking her if now she sought the aid of a hive-tainted witch. Caital was angered and demanded to know if Eris saw enjoyment in watching her fail, to which eris simply stated that she offered the Empress her support and that the offer still stands. Eris when on to explain that, Caital's failure isn't what defined her, and that she was only doing this for herself, not for the cabal. Caital tried to state that she was the cabal. But Eris told her that she wasn't, and that she was a woman with a burden, just as eris was. Caital then explained intense situation she was in. Such as her failure to protect Torobatl, and that within her ranks are traitors and spies. In her eyes their could be no quarter for failure. Eris recognized that the Empress was speaking Dominus Ghaul's words, and understood that Caital's Nightmare was that her incompetence would jeopardize the future of her people. Eris comforted Empress and told her to look past her shame and say that she was more. After being convinced, Caital agreed with Eris, and asked her to prepare the binding ritual. To witch Eris responsed that it was already awaiting her. | |||
