Nex drops 2 lore books, The Praesul and the Promised Gift in her underground palace.
In the second book she described how she recieved 4 stones of smoke, shadow, blood and ice that Zaros created from an especially large smoke demon, 1001 shadow cacklers from the shadow realm, Drakan's mother who is the matriach of vampyrium and arch-glacor on the frozen world of Leng.

Zaros used these to aid him in creating the Nihil but he no longer needs them and was planning on giving them to Nex before his betrayal.

Since Zaros tasked Nex with keeping an eye out on the younger gods he figures she needs a power-up since the edict are no longer in place.

Does this mean that Nex can go toe-to-toe with the gods now? Is she now stronger than Azzanadra who was empowered by the ritual in CoM to the point he feels no limits?
Is she stronger than Sliske whom we defeated?
There is joy in combat that can't be found anywhere else.

I think Nex has been granted the same level of power as Azzanadra feeling limitless now has, It's almost certain that the latter is close to ascending which is where roughly Sliske was before his body turned to dust, and it only makes sense for Zaros to ensure Nex can indeed watch the young gods and pose a significant threat to them if they should decide to make any silly moves.

for me, this is all very annoying. Nex was powerful, azzanadra was powerful. But then the gods come back and dwarf their power levels and suddenly everyone needs to level up to keep up

I wanted to see azzanadra fight something that you know to be scary powerful and win, and then you're all amazed ...like yeah, everybody's been saying you're powerful but till now there hasn't really been any proof

but no, this comes along and basically says 'old azzanadra, you were a weakling, have some welfare power because in this new world your old power level is a joke'

the nex you fight in the gwd is a weakened nex, and I sort of assumed this angel of death thing was just going to be nex at her real full power again

(also, I'm 14 quests behind and I really need to avoid this forum but... I ned it... so much :( )

Hm. Lovely lore that elaborates on or establishes locations whilst hinting at what content we could engage with there (Shadow Realm leviathans caught my eye in particular).

And what basically amounts to a tender moment between Zaros and Nex.

It also establishes that Nex was imprisoned in her palace rather than just a random icy cave (indicating a controlled retreat as opposed to being outright forced out of position) and that Saradominists once again built over a preexisting Zarosian structure.

I wonder if the Ambassador is one of said leviathans, since Leng was mentioned, and Lore has a habit of connecting things like this.

If I'm not mistaken, the lore people have known both those things for years

I don't know, I believe Nex was prisoned when she went to mess with the ritual of the mahjarrat, to ensure Zarosian mahjarrat would have the upper hand I always thought that that Saradominists lured Nex inside the cafe.

Perhaps the Ambassador is... But Zaros appears to fear them, so they might be really powerful!
