"The Light abandoned Cayde. Left him for dead. And kept him from being saved. Kept you from saving him. In Light, there is only failure."

— The Darkness to the Guardian, upon banishing the Nightmare of the Fanatic

The Nightmare of the Fanatic is the Nightmare of the Archon and leader of the Scorn: Fikrul, the Fanatic. It serves as a manifestation of Guardian's fears and trauma—created by the Lunar Pyramid—and is used to taunt them by reminding them how the Light abandoned Cayde-6 when he was most vulnerable. Years later, it reappears within the underbelly of the Derelict Leviathan—in the Missions Sever - Shame and Sever - Reconciliation—when Crow attempts to sever the connection to the Nightmare of Uldren.

Trivia

As a Scorn, the real Fikrul can be resurrected with Dark Ether, meaning that the Nightmare of Fikrul may be among those that could represent a living enemy, alongside the Nightmare of Taniks, the Scarred, whose template has a history of cheating death.
