Even the smallest abyss that splashes around is within the control of the Four Kings of Little Londo.
A strand of abyssal black sludge slips into the armor's crevice like a mountain leech!
It doesn't create any inappropriate bloody scene toward Dal, merely attaches its "body" to his skin.
Yet this single action causes Dal's brave sword-swinging to halt abruptly, and he is then knocked to the ground by the black sludge, engaging in hand-to-hand combat.
"Damn it, so this won't work either!"
Contamination by the abyss leads to unavoidable mental disorientation, a negative effect that cannot be ignored during battle.
The Fran Guard's armor is specially designed to resist the splashing abyss, aiding people in defending against its corrosion, as long as they aren't directly submerged within it.
But this strategy fails in front of the Four Kings of Little Londo who can manipulate the abyss with precision!
