    (As this Saga enters and after your draw step, add a lore counter. Sacrifice after III.) I, II — This Saga deals 2 damage to each opponent and you gain 2 life. III — Create an X/X black Nightmare Horror creature token, where X is half your life total, rounded up. It deals X damage to you.

    If an effect such as that of Anointed Procession causes the final chapter ability of Chainer's Torment to create two Nightmare Horror tokens, each will deal X damage to you.

    A chapter ability doesn't trigger if a lore counter is put on a Saga that already had a number of lore counters greater than or equal to that chapter's number. For example, the third lore counter put on a Saga causes the III chapter ability to trigger, but I and II won't trigger again.

    Once a chapter ability has triggered, the ability on the stack won't be affected if the Saga gains or loses counters, or if it leaves the battlefield.
