So, did you see the dream the way I did, carenkh? Namely that Supreme Evil is not "out there" but "in here" as I suggested earlier?
A common method of dream interpretation is to consider all characters in the dream as aspects of one's self.
So, the more 'evil' the character is, the more that aspect of ourselves is alienated from our consciousness. So Supreme Evil would be the thing we most disown from our self image.
As Pogo said, "We have seen the enemy and he is us."
A side issue: regarding Erin's not having to fight some of the numbered Evil Ones: in EFT, there is a phenomenon called "collapsing issues," wherein, if you take out several "table legs," as it were, the whole table falls, for lack of support.
Quote:
There can be hundreds or thousands of such SPECIFIC EVENTS underlying a larger issue (table top) and thus, theoretically, addressing them all can be a tedious process.
Fortunately, you do not have to address every SPECIFIC EVENT to collapse the larger issue.
You can usually do the job by collapsing somewhere between 5 and 20 of those table legs. This is because there is usually a commonality or "general theme" among all those SPECIFIC EVENTS. Thus, after appropriately collapsing a few of those table legs with EFT, a "Generalization Effect" occurs that serves to collapse ALL the legs.

That was my take on Erin's not having to fight all ten of the Top Evil Guys, but I don't know if she would see any light in that.
It doesn't detract from the drama and impact of the story, IMO, to have it take place intrapsychically.
And it also fits hand-in-glove, I think, with Steve's recent blog:

It's not that evil doesn't exist, but in this subjective, holographic, takes-one-to-know-one, hall-of-mirrors reality, we can only ever
really deal with our own evil.
Yeah, and I should definitely practice what I preach....
