Thread: Task of the year for 2010

I do keep a dream journal, but i do not keep it here on dreamviews. It would be a real pain to copy all of my dreams down twice. So is it ok for me to participate in the TOTY or TOTM? If it is ok, i was wondering if we could VILD or V-WILD to the past or future (depending on which TOTY goal we're doing)? Or do we have to travel to the specified time and setting within the dream, like with a time machine?

Why not just use Banhurt's DJ program?

And yeah, you should be fine. I don't think it matters so much how you get there as completing the task itself.

So last night I fought a Gladiator

Height of Rome: Watch (or participate) in a gladiator fight

....I took an enormous leap onto the building complex in front of me and had a look around. This place seemed really familiar but I couldn't put my finger on it.
Below me, I could see a group of men. Dressed like some sort of Roman soldier. I am in Rome! At that moment I remembered the task of the year.

I said to myself out loud "GLADIATOR!" and turned 180 degrees. Stood before me was a Roman Gladiator. It looked like a cross between Russell Crowe and Gerard Butler. Wearing uniform that you would expect a Gladiator to wear.
In one of his hands was a wooded sword and in the other a small shield.

For a brief moment my lucidity began to fall drastically. I desperately rubbed my hands together to boost the dream back into full form. My vision was slowly deteriorating as well as my control. While I frantically tried to pull myself back into the dream, the Gladiator just stood and laughed at me. As if he was the cause for this interruption.

The Gladiator charged directly towards me, swinging his sword at my head. I fled to the side where it narrowly missed me. Before I could think about anything else, he charged towards me again. I dodged the attack.
At this point I realised that I had no weapon and that the Gladiator had the upper hand. I thought to myself 'I must kick him off the edge of the building'
I waited for the Gladiator to charge once more. And he did.
Just as he approached me and fell back onto my hands, pushed off the ground and kicked the Gladiator directly in the chest with both feet.
The Gladiator flew across the roof top and eventually slipped off the edge.

I don't really think I did this justice. I think I am going to try one more time. This time try to get into the actual Colosseum.

Robotic genocide Bring in the reapers! I'll try that, in my next lucid I hope

Most of them dreamt up by christian evangelists, so far they've been wrong every single time, dream yourself to one of them and make it happen, or go way into the future and watch the Sun die or a comet strike the earth, or a robotic genocide, the possibilities are endless.

*Grins* One sentence. Do you have a zombie plan?

^I was thinking of causing the end of the world myself, but a zombie apocalypse would be way more fun!

This is all the motivation I need to get back into LDing full-time. I've got a pretty cool idea going for the holy grail...think I'll watch Kingdom of Heaven before bed for that one as well

Witness the end: CHECK... I may not have done as good as I wanted to, so I might just go back and try again another time.

TOTY (End of Humanity) (DILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I'm at some ski mountain, same two trails that are always there (One easy one extremely hard) and a new simple but steep trail when I realize that wierd dream feeling. I RC and sure enough I'm dreaming. Instantly I remember I want to go to Pandora. Knowing I'm not so good at shape shifting I decide to telelport to a futuristic lab. A giant vortex swirls up around me. As it spins I imagine feeling bumping into stuff to add stabalization so that I don't wake up. I also keep saying "This is a dream." I end up in a pub, I see the machines linking to an avatar, but they are out of order. Instead I just decide to go to a mirror and do it the old fashion way. Once I get to fustrated from failure (If I could have just had focus in my dream I wouldn't have gotten mad) I decide to blow myself up. They effect and feeling is amazing. A giant explosion radius and then feeling as if I am nothing an everything. Unfortunately I fail to reconstruct my body, but fortunately I stand in space as a witness to World War III. AKA: A series of nuclear bombs.

Nice

Great job, Huntman, and mrdeano!!!!

Drinking from The Grail

Tuesday, January 5, 2010

There are a bunch of monks walking away from Christ on the cross. The first monk is holding the Holy Grail. I fly down, as a lion-man. "Give me that shit!" I say, grabbing the Holy Grail. There is nothing in it. I turn it upside down. "Hey what gives?"
I look at the Christ. It's a wax figure. The monks are animatronic robots. The Grail is a plastic cup.
Then, I see a bunch of tourists looking at me, and taking pictures. We are in a wax museum.
"What the hell are you looking at?" I summon champagne, and take a sip. It's way too sweet. "I hope this counts!" I change it into red wine, and drink deep.
"Ah, this is good. Want some?" The tourists look at me suspiciously.
I multiply the grails, then make them turn into gold, and pass them out to the tourists. They take pictures, and sip the wine.
I sing, "Drinking the blood of Jesus, Drinking it straight from his veins!"
They cough and spit out the wine. "Drink up, it's just wine. It's just a song. Drink everyone."
"No, you freaked us out, weirdo."
"You're all a bunch of DC's aren't you?"
"Yes!"
I sigh, and make them disappear.

I teleport to Golgotha. People are mouring Christ, but he is not dead. A Roman soldier stabs him in the side with a spear. Mary Magdelene runs over with a cup, and catches the blood in it. I am terrified. "Fuck this!" I say to myself, and teleport away to a Mount Sinai.
I am sitting on the Mountain, looking down at the horrorific scene. It disappears and fades away.
Christ appears next to me. He is glowing. "Hello Nathan. Would you like to drink my blood?"
"Hell no, Jesus! No offense, but you are freaking me out, man!"
"Well, why don't we just smoke a doob then?"
"Uh... really?"
"I never lie," Christ laughs. He pulls out a smal burlap bag. He takes out some cannabis buds, and rolls them into a fat joint. He blows fire out of his mouth, and lights it. He takes a puff.
"Ah, that's the shit. Good stuff I made here," he laughs and hands it to me.
I take a puff, and hold it in. "So, you really are a hippie?"
"The first one! Peace and love, man, and I am serious about it."
"I know. But, why did you have to die, and be a human sacrifice."
"Oh it was an experiment."
"Uh... what?" We pass the joint back and forth.
"Well, I wanted to see if I could become corporeal after dying, and it worked!"
"Cool, Jesus!"
"I know, right, it is pretty cool. It's going to be even cooler when I ascend."
"Didn't you do that already?"
"Yes, but you traveled back in time, Gift."
"Why did you just call me that?"
"We are speaking Hebrew!"
"Oh, really? Wow."
"So, Jesus..."
"Yes?"
"I want to know, are you really the Son of God?"
"Yes, we all are. That's what I have been trying to tell everyone!"
"Well, okay, but, I mean, what is special about you."
"Oh, nothing and everything. I just found my inner Buddha."
"Uh... okay?"
"You'll learn in time, Mr. Gift. Anyway, here's the real Holy Grail, if you want to take a sip." He summons the Holy Grail, and scoops some water from a nearby stream. He changes it into wine. "Take a drink!"
He hands it to me. It's the most delicious wine I have ever tasted in my life.
"Thanks Christ!" He disappears.
"Hmm..." I say. I bite my arm, and bleed into the Grail.
I drink my own blood from it.
Raven appears. "Nomad? What the hell are you doing?"
MoSh appears. "Dude, that is fucked up!"
"What, I wanted to see what would happen!"
Demons come, and grab me by the arms, and carry me away to a high place.
"I can't bear to look!" Raven says, and turns away.
I am with Satan on a Mountain.
"Why don't you turn loaves into bread?"
"Don't you mean stones?"
"Yeah. That."
"Okay!" I say, and turn stones into bread. I eat them. There's gravel inside. It tastes like sawdust. I spit it out.
"Aha!" Satan says. "You have eaten the unholy bread."
"Whatever, dude, I spit it out. It sucked."
"Hmm, come with me." He teleports us to the temple.
"If you really are the Son of God, why don't you throw yourself down."
"Okay!"
I jump off the temple. People run and scream. I hit the ground, and stand up, dusting myself off.
"It's cool, it's cool. It's just a dream!" I laugh. The people put their hands on their chests and breathe a sigh of relief. "Hey... are you DC's?" I ask suspiciously.
"Yes."
"I'm not!" one guy says, raising his hand.
"Whoah! Who are you?"
"Elijah."
"Oh, the fiery chariot guy. You didn't die! Was that a spacecraft?"
"Yes, exactly."
"C'mere, you!" Satan says.
He takes me back to the Mountain, and shows me a bunch of kingdoms in images.
"All these I will give to you, if you just bow down to me."
"Dude, lame! I already have my own kingdom and shit I made up... a bunch of DC's are my only worshippers of course. Anyway, what would I do with a bunch of kingdoms? Boring."
"Don't you speak to me so dismissively? Do you know who I am? I am Satan, bitch!"
I grab Satan's head, and knee him in the forehead, then I smack the back of his head to the ground. He coughs up blood. "Who's bowing to the false god, now, bitch? Not only that, you are bowing to nothing, idiot!"
"Hey screw you, man!"
"You're just another dreamer, aren't you?" I pull back his hood. It's Sarnox. He stands up. The blood disappears. "Gotcha!" he says.
"Oh, you goofball!" I say.
"Did you really think Satan talks like that? C'mon!" We both start lauging our asses off.
"Wait? What about the demons?"
"Oh, one was Koomo, and the other was Jo. This whole dream is a big joke."
Jo runs up, a lizard creature, and licks me. Koomo alight down and laughs at me. I blush.
"Damn, I guess I have a lot to learn."
"We even put a blood packet on you, because we knew you wanted to drink your own blood, you weirdo."
"So what did I drink?"
"Watered down ketchup."
"Wait, what about Christ? Who was he?"
"Your inner Buddha, your Cosmic Christ, and an aspect of Jesus himself."
"Cool!"
I laugh at myself. I am still laughing when I wake up.

Task of the Year - Gladiator Battle

I am on the Moon. Warrior Tiger approaches me. She is in full battle gear. She slams her fist into her palm. "You want fuck with me, bitch?"
"Let's get it on!"
We teleport to the ancient Roman Colloseum. Caligula is presiding. I face off against Allison, and MoSh faces off against Raven. I am a Net Man. I have a steel net, and a trident, and light armor. Allison has heavy armor, and a short sword. She is a huge Scandanavian man, and I am a wiry North African. I swing my net around. Allison dodges it. I catch half of it on her, but she gets out. She suddenly lunges forward, and stabs me in the side. I fall to the ground. The crowd cheers. Raven has a sword pointed at MoSh's throat. Caligula gives the thumbs down, and "cut the throat" gesture. Allison and I wink at each other. We fly toward the Emperor. I become Vampire Supreme. Allison's armor changes, and she becomes covered with a light golden and silver armor. She stabs him in the throat, and I reach into his chest, and rip his heart out. I bite a piece off, and spit it out, then drink the blood from it like a goblet. I let his blood run down my face. I shriek like a banshee and roar like a lion, then laugh maniacally. The crowd screams in terror, and stampedes out of the building.
Raven is calmly sending bolts of lighting at people. MoSh is a huge werewolf with red eyes, howling and beating his chest. We run underneath the colloseum. The slavers are trying to kills the slaves before we free them. We tear through them like sandstorms. There are slaver pieces all over the ground. We smash the locks, and set free all the gladiators.
"Gladiators, REVOLT!" I shout. Everyone replies, "Gladiators, REVOLT!"
We ride on steeds, strange creatures, of myth and legend. I am riding Jo, in a shaggy Cerebus form. We ride to the gladiator barracks, and smash through the gates. We kill the slavers, and yell, "Gladiators, Revolt! Slaves, Revolt!" We arm all the gladiators, then take extra weapons with us. We march through the streets with our battle cry, clanging swords on shields. Soon Roman soldiers attack us in the the streets. Both sides incur heavy losses. We take the armor and weapons off the dead soldiers, and arm up house slaves, field slaves, sex slaves, child slaves, and more gladiators. We form a massive army of pissed of multinational slaves. We march northward to Germania.
We battle through many towns, to finally get the hell out of Rome. We settle in the Mountains. Roman soldiers come to attack us, but we know all their tricks. We send boulders and logs careening down the mountain at them when they come. When we become stronger, we post lookouts in tree blinds, master archers, to kill scouts that come our way. We create a system to deter the Romans from trying to conquer us. We proclaim ourselves and independent nation. We call ourselves Freemasters, Masters of Ourselves, Lovers of Life and Freedom. We teach our children about the beauty of diversity and equality. We make many beautiful strong children from our racial mix. We eventually get absorbed into the the surrounding nations. But, for a short time, we were almost Utopia.

Task of the year- Give Fire to Man

I am climbing Mount Olympus. It's misty. By the time I get to the top, I am wet with dew. I become Prometheus. I find a branch of dead wood. I wrap dry moss around it, and dip it in pitch. I sneak to the gods' abode. They are discussing something. I see an eternal flame. I turn invisible. I tiptoe to the fire, and dip my torch in. I can't make the flame invisible. The gods watch the flame floating through the air for a moment. Then, they try to grab me. I sprint down the mountain.

"Prometheus! Come back here, you blasphemer!" thunders Zeus. He shoots bolts of lightning at me. The forest catches on fire.

"Thanks for the fire!" I mock. I am running down so fast, branches are whipping me in the face. The forest is ablaze around me. I toss my torch away.

Zeus summons a rainstorm, and puts out the fire. "That bastard!"
I become tiny, and hide under a tree. Zeus looks for me. "Prometheus! Where are you? My dogs will eat your soul, boy!"

I see a portal, so I jump in.

I am on a tropical beach. I am Maui in ancient Hawai'i. Everyone is crawling around. The sky is so close to the earth, we cannot stand up. I throw the sky up into the air. "Stupid gods. I will show them. I will give fire to man, and then we will have the power they do!"
A gull tells me he knows how to make fire. He tells me to fetch a green stick. I do it. Then, the bird laughs at me. I hit him with the stick. I get a dry big piece of wood, some coconut husk fibers, and a smaller stick. I place the fibers on the big piece, and spin the small stick around in the fibers, and catch them on fire. I pick up the fibers, and wave it around. I get more sticks, and start a larger fire.
Some people come to me. "Is it safe to be near you, brother? You have stolen the sacred fire!"
"I am a demigod. I do want I want, beeyotch! I am Maui, hear my name: MAUI BEEYOTCH!"
I show them how to make fire. They are amazed. I make them do it themselves. I show them how to warm themselves, use fire for torches, lamps, and cooking.
Kanaloa makes it rain on us. "Too late, Father! Now they know, we all know! Now we are all gods, sons of the Most High, just like you, Father!" I laugh and dance in the rain.
The people are afraid. They run in their houses. Kanaloa comes out of the sea, a great squid god. He grabs me and looks at me. "This is not the right time!" he says. "Wait a minute. You're not Maui. You're WakingNomad!"
"Waa-waa-waa! Hey, you're pretty smart!"
"Oh, go play in your silly dreams, you!"
"Thank you, I will!" I jump into the ocean, and turn into a dolphin. The Hawaiians point at me. "Oh, yeah, I'm a god. And, yeah, I have a big ego. Just ask my friend, MoSh."
A portal opens, and MoSh sticks his head out. "Huh? Did you call me? Nomad? What are you doing?"
"Just giving fire to man."
"Oh, geez, quit calling me into your silly dreams!"
"But-"
"I'm busy!" he says gruffly. I hear Asuka giggle. He closes the portal. I change into a space dolphin, and fly to the Moon.

Task of the Year Ancient Pyramid Building

I was back in the jungle at the edge of the desert, when went to see the Great Pyramids. I walked toward a half-built pyramid.
"No!" the same woman said to me. "You mustn't go near!" I perceived her as a dream demon. I bared my fangs at her, and she cowered. I put my hand on the demon's face, and pushed. I walked past it into the desert plain.
There was a great stone hanging from a rope, and a wooden crane. There were slaves and scaffoldings everywhere. Suddenly the scene froze. All the people and man made things became 2D, and peeled away like an animation cel.
Underneath was a new scene. This one was much more vivid. There were thousands of people, all bare chested, wearing simple skirts, with shaved heads, and some with wigs. They all had elaborate eye make-up on. Some had design tattoos on them. They were all chanting loudly: "AH!" There was a giant stone moving with telekinesis of all the people. I joined them, and began chanting. My appearance changed to look like them. We were all connected, all thinking the same thing together, all picturing the great stone moving to where we wanted it. We placed the stone. Everyone inhaled. We chanted, and lifted another stone from the ground.
I flew to a quarry. There were people standing around a hole. They had their arms forward. They were using chanting telekinesis to cut building stones out of solid rock, and lifting them up, and stacking them. There was a line of people all the way to the pyramid that each stone was floating nearby. Everyone stared at the stone, and thought of nothing else but the stone. They were telling the stone that it was as light as a feather, and could be moved through the air with ease. There were also groups of people, around five to a dozen, that would float one stone together.
I went back to the pyramid. They were topping it with the capstone, which was a solid quartz crystal. Under the crystal was a mirror. The sun rose between two mountains, and sunrays hit the crystal. It glowed, and light refracted and burst out from it. The crystal began to hum. Great dark green almost black tiles flew up in the air, and covered the pyramid. The people chanted, and altered their chant. I joined them again. We rotated the pyramid ninety degrees. Hidden entrances were revealed. We turned it two more times. More hidden entrances. People stood up, and walked slowly toward the hidden entrance. I joined them. Someone grabbed me by my pectoral muscle, and pinched it, right near my armpit.
"Where are you going, outsider? You don't belong here!" I hit his arm away. I saw him with True Sight. He was a Reptilian. I looked around. So were all the people. I was a jaguar underneath. I changed to a Reptilian.
"Hm... a shapeshifter, eh? Come with me, we want to question, you!"
"No. I am going into-"
Two Reptilians with laser guns appeared beside me, and grabbed my arms. I was curious to see what would happen, so I let them do it. I got teleported to their ship. They beat the crap out of me in a little metal room. I shifted to Juargawn form. I coughed up blood. Interrogators entered. They kicked me, and tied me to a chair.
"Why are you here, Earthling?"
"Oh, because I wanted to check our your ship, and shit."
They slapped me.
"Insolent fool. Give us the information we desire."
"What do you want to know."
"Who are you? Where did you come from? How did you get here?"
"I am Juargawn, the cat-god. I am Vampire Supreme. I am really just Nothing incarnate. I came here time travelling from the future."
They changed back into Egyptians. We were now in an underground temple. They blew noisemakers, and confetti came down. A priest shook my hand. "Congratulations, Juargawn, you passed the test. Your heart is pure."
"Really? Is it?"
"Yes. You are not a perfect person, but your heart is pure. Now, look."
In this torchlit chamber was a great stone slab in the center. On it was a huge red crystal in the shape of a human heart. The priest lifted a great hammer, and we all chanted, "AH!" He smashed it, and the heart shattered in slow motion. Pieces floated through the air. One landed on my forehead, and one on my chest. We stopped chanting.
"What is this?" I asked the priest.
"The Heart Crystal shard is a part of you now. Your mind is now increasingly connected to your heart which will make you more powerful, and give you greater inner peace. Also, it increases the telepathic communication you have with those you love, in this plane or others. You are one of us Ancients again, brother. We have traveled through time and space to be with each other, here, now. So, breathe."
We all inhaled together, and chanted. I felt my body float up, and I met all the other people in space. We swirled together, and became a ball of golden energy. Two lines like serpents grew out from us, forming a lemniscate. The chant faded, and we returned. We inhaled together again, then stood up together. We walked forward to the altar, and ate fresh fruit off of it. I ate a pomegranate.
"Oh, the fruit of the dead is a little tart!" I said. The priest laughed and clapped me on the back. "You'r good crocodile shit, man." I grinned, and the dream faded.

Wow, Nomad, you have an amazing ability to remember tasks! Not to derail the thread or anything but you should really think about making a tutorial or thread with some tips on remembering tasks for lucids.

I always have trouble remembering what I wanted to do.

I'm going to ride the asteroid into the earth hahahahha

And im gonna stop you

I always have trouble remembering what I wanted to do.

Thanks Naiya. I think it's because I belief life is dream and dream is life. When I think about the tasks, I just think about them all day, or right before I go to sleep. I guess being obsessed with dreams helps.

Task of the Year

Beat Neil Armstrong down the Ladder

January 16, 2010

I am hiding in the spaceship with WarriorTiger and Raven. Neil Armstrong opens the hatch. I teleport in front of him.
"Huh?" I push him backward, and he falls over WT who is on her hands and knees behind him. Raven laughs. The three of us go down the ladder, and we all slap the surface of the Moon at the same time and say, "NOT IT!"
A herd of mythical beasts run out of the spaceship, and slap the moon ground, and say, "NOT IT!"
We turn to Neil Armstrong and point at him, and laugh. "You are It! You are It! Now you have to catch us."
Neil sits down at the top of the ladder and pouts. "Hey, no fair! You guys ruined everything... I had a speech prepared..."
"Aw, sorry Neil," I say. "It is just a dream after all."
"I know," Neil grins, and changes into my Druid High Priest, Sarnox.
"Hey, you, quit doing that!"
"Oh, did you really think you were going to go back and alter the past? The past is permanent, you goofball!"
"Why do you keep popping in all my lucid task thingies, dude?"
"Because it's funny! And you don't come to the Temple any more, so I got bored."
"Oh, sorry dude."
"Hey, don't feel sorry for me, I do what I want, beeyotch!"
"Must you call me that?"
"Yes, I must BEEYOTCH!"
Allison falls over laughing. Raven tries not to laugh. Sarnox runs down the ladder and tags me. "IT!" Then, everyone runs away from me.
"Oh yeah?" I multiply myself, and tag everyone there, including all the mythical beasts simultaneously.
"Hey, no fair!" a little fawn creature complains.
"Oh, you want fair? I will show you a fair!"
I summon a cheesy carnival with a bunch of scary rickety wooden rides, and creepy clowns running all the games.
"Uh... I don't like... fair...." says the deer creature.
"Then, don't complain!" I laugh.
Everyone pounces on me, and says, "IT!" then they turn invisible. I throw moon dust on everyone, and I tag the nearest person. It's Sarnox as Neil Armstrong.
"A small tag for an interdimensional dog, and a giant tag for interdimensional being kind," says Sarnox.
"Dude, that wasn't even funny."
"I wasn't being funny. I was being epic. IT!" Sarnox tags me.
"Oh geez. You know what? I am going to eat a tuna fish sandwich!"
"Go ahead, vegetarian!"
"Doh!" I summon an avocado sandwich with alfalfa sprouts, tomatoes, lettuce and pepperjack cheese. "There!" I take a bite. It's delicious.
"Uh, can I have some?" Sarnox asks.
"Don't beg!" I say.
Sarnox turns into my old dog, Samuel, the Border Collie poidog, and looks at the sandwich, then at me, then back at the sandwich. I break it in half and give it to him. He wolfs it down. I make the sandwich whole and eat the whole thing in one bite.
"Ah, dream food."
"Dude, dreams are so weird!" Sarnox says.
"I know!" I laugh. "Shit!"
"What?"
"I am waking up!"
"Oh well, bye!" I wake up.

The End of the World

I am asleep in the Healing Glen on the Moon. I slowly stretch and wake up. "Hello my vampire son," Gawn says, standing over me. I startle and crouch.
"It's only your father-in-law, the Dragon King," he grins madly.
"Oh, my bad, Gawn," I say.
"You earth creatures and your strange lingo! Come!"
He puts his arm around me, and leads me to the Temple of Gawn, a Gothic Cathedral. There is a statue of Gawn holding a huge mirror.
"Look into the mirror."
I look into the mirror. I see Earth from the viewpoint of the Moon. Its orbit slowly gets bigger, and it moves away from the Sun. It freezes over, then the whole planet dies. The Sun gets bigger and bigger and goes supernova, and engulfs the Solar System, then becomes a black hole. We zoom out of our view, and I see there are a few black holes in the Milky Way Galaxy swirling around its center. The center of the Galaxy goes supernova, and a black hole is created. The entire Galaxy gets sucked into it. We zoom out our view further, and I see a bright star at the center of the universe, the size of many galaxies. The universe expands, and galaxies come out of the Creator Star. After immeasurable light years, the Creator Star goes supernova, and becomes a Great Black Hole. The universe contracts into it in an instant. The universe is the size of a small ball. It glows hot white, and we zoom out from it. It is in the center of a lemniscate.
"The Zero Point," I hear Gawn say in my head.
The universe moves through the infinity symbol, through many other universes. The lemniscate spins in all directions. Our view zooms in again, until we see the white hot ball floating in a Black Void. It explodes silently. I feel like my atoms are all shattered. Light and life burst forth from the universe as it recreates itself. Gawn passes his hand over the mirror, and the vision fades.

I hear a voice screaming in my head. I realize it's me. "Shh," Gawn says softly. I stop screaming. Hot tears are running down my vampire face.
"You wanted to see the end of the world didn't you, son?"
"No! Damn them DV lucid tasks bullshit. I didn't even want to do this one. I knew this was going to happen."
"Really? Don't you know Ninja and the others are being guided? If you were never led to that silly website as you think of it in your mind, you would have never met Raven, or Robert, or Selene, or Me. You would have never understood the power of The Vortex, or learned how to shapeshift. You should be grateful. You may have never even met Angel."
"I am sorry, my lord."
Ganwn chuckles, and looks up at his the statue of himself. The statue winks at us and grins.
"I created Dream Views, you know, son."
"What? You aren't even corporeal!"
"Oh, you know I am. My spark is in many humans, after I halved my energy, and sent tiny sparks into so many of you Earthlings so many millions of years ago. You remember, don't you, son?"
"Yes." I look down at my chest. A little white ball floats up out of me, and I see the Horned God, Pan, dancing madly inside of it, playing the Pan Pipes. Wood nymphs flock to him, and kiss him. He summons a goblet of wine, and drains it, then tosses it to the side. He winks at me. The spark floats back down into my chest. Gawn touches my chest. "I will always be with you, here." He kisses my forehead. "And here. Our souls are bonded." Gawn flies through the roof of the Temple, opens a portal, and goes through it. I walk out of the Temple, and out of the Biodome.
I stare at the Earth in silent solitude. Angel appears, wraps her arms around me. I put an arm around her waist, and we gaze at the earth like that for a long time. The Moon Imps pop out of craters in the Moon. They become men and women. A lot of others join us. We gaze at the Earth like that for what seems like forever.
