Nightmare-Bound Anomaly Commission in Neverness to Everness

Nightmare-Bound is an Anomaly that can only be discovered within nightmares or dreamscapes, as investigators will have to explore an abandoned hospital. You can find this Anomaly by talking to an unnamed patient inside the Hethereau Municipal Hospital. The NPC can be found in the first floor stairwell, facing the wall. Talk to him and choose the option (Close eyes). You will be teleported to the abandoned hospital, and need to find clues around the hospital so you can complete the commission.

This Anomaly Commission has multiple endings, and you may want to re-enter it at a later point to find out more about what is actually going on within the Nightmare.

You need to find three clues around the abandoned hospital, and submit them to projectors on the first floor to complete the commission. Investigate the monitors to find clues nearby. The first one is located on your right after spawning in. The monitor is located behind the reception area.

From the reception area, you can see an exit door to the right. Enter there and keep following the path, even after you see the Nightmare-Bound Anomaly walking around.

Continue heading to the second exit door. After you go through this one, there will be another door with green light beside it. Enter the room to see many generators lined up.

Inside the generator room, activate four of the inactive ones so the electricity will come back on. You can see which one is not activated by the lights on the generator. However, be careful as the moment the lights return, the Nightmare-Bound Anomaly will come into the room and try to capture you.

Try to hide behind the many generators and run outside the room as fast as you can. Once you leave the room, you should be fine.

Outside of the room will be another reception area. Go there and get the Keychain: 1F on top of the table.

From the reception area, look to the left side and go through the exit there. The Nightmare-Bound Anomaly will not be here for now, so rest assured.

Walk forward until you see a door on the right side with white light coming from above. This door will lead you to the second clue.

From inside the room, go through the door to the left and move forward until you reach a room with black ink splashed on the wall. Enter the door to the left and you will find the final clue on a monitor to complete this commission.

Continue following the ink on the floor leading east, and you will find a patient room with lockers and trash bags in front of a door. Interact with the open locker to get another key, and destroy the trash to go through the door.

Look to your right to find a closed exit door. You already have the key, so go through the door to find the emergency stairs. Head up the stairs to arrive one floor above. Go inside the room behind the reception area to find three projectors.

Enter the clues in the right order to fully complete the Anomaly Commission and get Ending 1 out of 4.
