Celesto is trying to frame Snuggles and the king with those tentacle monsters. Chaosploding people would just implicate Celesto since that's his MO. That and Celesto doesn't really want to kill Dominic -- he's still trying to convince Dominic that his way is the right and only way to fix the world.

Then again, does the general public even know about Celesto's chaosploding or the existence of Snuggles? It probably wouldn't be too difficult to frame an extradimensional horror for chaosploding -- killing people in a horrible nightmarish manner is just what the public would expect of an abomination from beyond.

Man, just about everything in this arc has been way more complicated than necessary. Celesto's frameup scheme, the sword scrying...and Dominic isn't any closer to finding a way to deal with King David and Snuggles than he was an arc ago.

Kudos though for Chance's inevitable turn to the Deegan side being somewhat justified for once. Even if he doesn't agree with Dominic on anything, Dominic did take a bunch of tentacles for him.
