In the second half of the game, V's deteriorating condition caused his skin to become flaky and cracks to gradually form on his skin, showing that he was literally falling apart. In this state, he could barely hold himself up, even with his cane, and required Nero to drag him into the Qliphoth's lowest chambers.

Griffon explained to V that while the original Nightmare had the power to destroy the Demon World, it did not have a will of its own, and it will only obey its master, stressing V was completely unable to communicate with the Nightmare made from Vergil's memories. With Nightmare blocking the door, V and Griffon cannot run away. When Griffon questioned V if he had a plan, V told him that he wanted to gauge Nightmare's power and sends Shadow to attack. Before Shadow could land a blow, Nightmare quickly impale Shadow, leaving him in his core form, much to V's surprise. As Nightmare prepares to fire its laser beam, V quietly stared in amazement as Griffon panicked. While V was able to barely dodged the laser, Griffon takes a direct hit and reverts to his core form, leaving V without any form of protection. Seeing how powerful Nightmare was, V admitted that confronting Nightmare was a mistake. Using its sludge-like tendrils, Nightmare captured V and engulfed him into its body. As V falls down a dark abyss, V had his cane taken away by Nightmare. V eventually landed in dark, watery area with a giant, cracked statute of Mundus in front of him. V then saw Vergil wearing Nelo Angelo's armor emerging from the ground and grabbing onto V, causing V to realized that appearance of Nelo Angelo and everything else around him was just a "worthless dream".
V entered the RV just as Lady, who was rescued earlier by Nero, were telling the others what happened after V and Nero left the tree a month ago. V politely greeted Lady and handed Nico the demon fragment to make a new Devil Breaker for Nero. Since the road to the Qliphoth tree was blocked by debris, V and Nero decided to travel the rest of the way on foot. While they went on different underground paths, V and Nero met again on the surface and were confronted by a Proto Angelo and small army of Scudo Angelos. Recalling Vergil's time as Nelo Angelo, V grew angry at the sight of the Angelos and proceeded to battle them alongside Nero on their moving battlefield. V and Nero finished the fight before their platform went over a cliff, landing in an area that V recognized to be where Vergil and Dante's old family home resided. V nostalgically and cryptically shared his childhood memories to Nero before stating that they must part ways because V wanted to find the Sparda sword. While Nero warned V that the sword would be too much for V to handle, V shrugged it off and said that they need all the help they can get, much to Nero's puzzlement.
With the Kingdom of Caledor isolated and Imrik's move for power neutralised, Prince Tyrion moved his armies north through the Kingdom of Eataine, pushing back one daemonic host after another. Driving his men onward to the point of fatigue, Tyrion fought on constantly at the forefront of these battles with unparalleled fury. As the "Dragon of Cothique" guided his army north, he and his host of Elves broke the sieges of several villages and cities along the coast. However, as the war continued unabated, Tyrion's heart and soul slowly began to deteriorate. The thoughts of his lost daughter and the disappearance of the Everqueen were ever on his mind.[3a]
The Battle of Moonspire would later be told of, by the Elves, as the greatest battle during the Wars of Reclamation. Tens of thousands of daemons had flocked to N'Kari's banner, eager to share in its plunder, mayhem and glory. Arrayed against them was a much smaller force of Elven warriors led by Tyrion himself. Believing victory to be inevitable, the arrogant Daemon ordered a frontal assault on the Elven formations, without giving thought to tactics or strategy. The Elven army however, fought according to a precise and highly-calculated battle plan.
With the Chaos assault now blunted, the Phoenix Guard quickly counter-attacked, led by Tyrion and Teclis themselves. As the Elven forces drove deep into the enemy lines, N'Kari had no choice but to finally confront the twins in combat. Teclis unleashed a hellstorm of moonfire upon N'kari, searing the daemon's flesh and blinding it with rage. While charging towards the mage, N'Kari was intercepted by Tyrion, riding his mighty steed Malhandir. Their last encounter forgotten, the mighty warrior avoided N'Kari's attacks and inflicted a deep, smoldering wound upon the Greater Daemon. N'kari tried to retaliate, but his grievous injuries slowed him considerably and the Elven Prince proved too nimble.[3a]
As N'Kari's skull split asunder, a massive, deafening crack of thunder filled the skies, and a magnificent flash of light shone down from the heavens. Those who looked directly at it thought they saw the Goddess Lileath looking down upon them. From Moonspire's Pinnacle, a great torrent of fire raced across the Kingdoms of Ulthuan, banishing all the daemons that still clung to the mortal plane, preventing the Dark Gods from intervening in the affairs of Elves for a time. The climactic defeat of the Greater Daemon N'Kari ended the Wars of Reclamation, but a newer, deadlier conflict waited just beyond the horizon.[3a]
With the entire kingdom finally alerted to the Chaos threat, Ebnir Soulflayer, most trusted of the Witch King's generals, rode out towards the Tower of Volroth with what forces he could readily muster, only to find the fortress, which itself housed 80,000 elite Druchii warriors, lying in ruins. The Bloodied Horde had already breached the first layer of Naggaroth's defences. With their passage southward cleared, the titanic horde had separated into numerous smaller forces to seek their own individual glory, whilst Valkia remained true to the path laid by her God and besieged the very capital of Naggarond itself. The splinter hordes which travelled eastward made for the shrine-city of Har Ganeth where they met the bloodthirsty warriors of Hellebron, High-Priestess of Khaine. Those which journeyed southward were confronted by Malus Darkblade and the cold-hearted legions of Hag Graef, painting the Dark Road red with the blood of the invaders.
Within the Vaults of the Abbey, Kemmler retrieved the Great Staff of Nagash from its resting place. As Arkhan confronted him within the Vaults, Kemmler turned towards Arkhan and revealed his secret pact with the Gods of Chaos and his intention to keep the staff for himself. With a deafening crack, La Maisontaal exploded as a magical duel erupted within its foundations.
Yet no matter how desperately they fought, the Skaven could not halt the relentless tides of zombies pouring through the tunnels, and so little by little the Skaven were driven back. In desperation, Warlord Snikrat ordered in his elite Warp-fire Throwers into the front and showered the Undead with deadly warpfire. The tunnels were caught in flames, but the Undead did not feel pain like the living, and so they came on, blazing like torches and incinerating those Skaven around them. Realizing the tunnels were lost, Warlord Snikrat abandoned the lower levels with those Skaven following suite.[1m]
The fighting now drew nigh to the last defence -- a bottomless chasm that split the outer tunnels from the great cavern that was the heart of Clan Mordkins fortress-lair. Lighting the only rickety bridge on fire, the Undead were halted in their tracks. With this moment of relief, Warlord Snikrat ordered his elite Warp-lock Jezzail sniper teams called the Skullsplinters into the front and showered the Undead with a murderous barrage of warpstone bullets. Undisturbed by this turn of events, Mannfred walked calmly through the barrage and used his magic to create a bridge out of the bones of the zombies. Within moments, under the hail of bullets, the bridge was completed, an a thunderous charge of the Drakenhof Templars, Doom Riders and the Spectres of Corpse Wood have routed and massacred the Skaven to the last. Only Snikrat survived, where upon his return he was met with dire punishment.[1m]
Following the total annihilation of both the City of Tlaxtlan and the Skaven invaders that were sent there, the remaining Skaven spearheads have redirected their remaining forces to attack the next series of cities that stood in their way. The second and most largest of the spearheads besieged the Temple-City of Itza, the First City and the capital of the Lizardmen Empire. Unlike the mindless assaults perpetrated by Plaguelord Kreegix during the Fall of Tlaxtlan, the Skaven armies under Plaguelord Gritch, the Great Potentate of Pustulates, and the newly promoted Plaguelord Grilok knew that such a tactic upon the greatest fortress-city in Lustria would lead to a genocide, and as such a different tactic was issued. With the cracking of whips, tens of thousands of the Chained Ones were brought up to excavate a massive moat all around the enormous city whilst several detachment armies plundered the nearby temples and watch-post located outside the city limits led by the Bilekin Brotherhood. Though half their numbers were sent towards Warleader Kroq-Gar and the ongoing daemonic battle at the Temple-City of Xahutec, the armies within the city of Itza are still larger than any formation currently engaged within the continent.[4e]
Within moments, entire Skaven formations that were placed in the rear-guard were expertly hunted and quietly killed by the Eyes in the Canopy before they could sound the alarm to the rest of the army. With an almighty roar, a sea of massive snakes emerged out of the jungle canopy. Behind them came massive waves of Red Shields clustered around hulking armoured Kroxigors. At the forefront came a wall of Living Bastion, Fire Lizards and Saurian Calvary stretching from horizon to horizon, moving with such ferocity that they left broken trees in their wake. Above the sky, a host of Ripperdactly know as the Wind that Hungers await the feast that will commence. As this new army lifted their bellowing challenges to the skies, dark clouds began to appear above and answered their roars with thunder-cracks as the armies of Tehenhauin, the Prophet of Sotek and Harbinger of the Serpent God has finally come.[4e] 2ff7e9595c
