Sandy kept to himself while the other Nightmares talked. So far, everything was going as Jormong had said, and the general lack of respect he was getting seemed a pretty solid proof that something was different about these Nightmares. That, and the fact that they hadn't taken the half-dozen or so chances they had to jump him. That helped too.

While Rodny went out back to talk to the other ponies, he went to talk to Jormong (assuming he is still there). "If you don't mind my asking, do you think you could do me a favor? Can you not erase my memories of our talk back in my head?"
