You have a point; however, I suspect the reason Meredith appeared so "weak" was the fact that it was an in-game fight. If the battle against her had been a cutscene, I suspect she would have appeared stronger. Regardless, I love your idea of Nightmare with a red lyrium-infused Soul Edge. If Nightmare wins, I am definitely using that in the ending :)
