At first, Nelson felt confident, and for a moment, he even thought he could finally get rid of the looming danger known as Faceless Ancient because he had the backing of a God from ATLAS, which, in itself, was a terrifying organization.
That's why, when that 'God' finally disclosed what 'it' wanted from Nelson, the latter felt relieved rather than frustrated, because this was more acceptable to Nelson than genuine mercy.
However, his relief was short-lived because God actually wanted him to capture every single person from the Lesser Plains of Taurus who had entered the Path of Legend, which includes the Faceless Ancient!
At that time, Nelson still thought it was doable, but soon after, the Legendary Master Key appeared, and everyone was thrown out of the Path of Legend.
Thereby, the 'God' assigned him a new task, which was to acquire the Legendary Master Key from whoever had acquired it.
