The Dark Tower – Escape From Tull

I am in a rather rundown looking town. I don’t recognize anything about it. I walk down the main street, the only street, looking to see why I am here. I see many of the buildings along the road are boarded up and abandoned. I finally find a place that looks like a tavern or an inn and I go inside there. The first thing I see is a man near the door that looks like death itself. He looks up at me with a pained expression as he asks why ‘he’ didn’t make him not want it anymore. I ask who ‘he’ is and the man says the angel could make him alive again, why couldn’t he make him not want the weed? A woman at the bar tells him to leave me alone, calling him Nort. She says I should pay him no mind, he’s just a weed eater. She looks like she wants to say something more but thinks better of it.

I go outside and I see someone who looks familiar, so I head in his direction. It’s Roland Deschain from the Dark Tower books by Stephen King. He stops briefly and says I’m not from Tull, am I just passing through? He doesn’t wait for an answer, he has somewhere he has to be. I follow after him, not sure what is happening yet. I tell him all I know for sure is I am here to help someone. I follow him to a strange house. No one answers the door and he kicks it down. When I get inside I see a really fat naked woman sitting on a chair and facing the door as if she’d been expecting someone. I am wishing she had some clothes on. Roland doesn’t seem to care. She claims to have been touched by an angel, and the angel left his child inside her. Roland says the man in black is no angel. She seems to think he was an angel because he claimed to be and he raised Nort from the dead. I remember the sickly man in the pub. I ask if she means that weed eater back in town? Roland looks surprised that I followed him here. I say that was no angel that brought Nort back… a true angel would have healed him of his addiction, not just brought him back to continue suffering. She doesn’t seem to have an answer to that, but at the same time she won’t entertain the idea the man in black was anything less than an angel. Roland says there’s no reasoning with this one, the man in black already owns her.

Time seems to pass, or the scene changes. I am now with another man and we are near the pub. I look at the man and identify him as MoSh, a fellow dreamer from DreamViews. I look around to see why we might be here. MoSh looks at me and then around at the town. He says this is a really nice set… are they filming the Dark Tower movie here? I tell him no, this is a dream, though I’m not really listening to my own words. The townspeople are surrounding us. A man tells MoSh and me to get out of the way, they aren’t after us. Everyone there has some kind of weapon in their hands. Knives, shovels, pitchforks, sticks with nails… they are all around us. And right there with them is the fat woman from earlier, fortunately not naked any longer, holding a cross up and pointing at Roland and telling everyone to kill the interloper. Everyone starts closing in around us, cutting off escape. They apparently don’t care too much if innocent bystanders get caught in their attack. But I am remembering that they aren’t exactly themselves… the man in black set this all up, so maybe they can be set free.

I tell Roland and MoSh that if they can try to avoid killing the people I think I can heal them and set them free of the man in black’s influence, at least some of them. Roland says that would be great, but it won’t help if we’re dead first. I tell him I understand that, I’ll try to be quick. MoSh says he can knock out anyone trying to approach without killing them. I walk towards the crowd, and they part to let me pass. I guess they were telling the truth when they said MoSh and I aren’t their targets. I get out among them and then I focus on the song Full Moonlight from the Devil Hunter Yohko soundtrack. I see MoSh using martial arts that looks like Ranma Saotome, knocking out any of the townspeople who approach him and Roland. Roland hasn’t yet fired a round. My song plays and an orb that looks like a moon is hovering over the town, bathing the entire area in light energy. When it ends I see a lot of the people look disoriented and confused. The fat woman is still pointing and telling them to kill the interloper. Roland answers her with a bullet between the eyes. A few others try to attack, but they don’t get very close before they’re shot.

After the few remaining attackers have been dealt with everyone else is still wandering aimlessly. Roland asks if they will be ok. I tell him a little confusion is to be expected, I’m sure they will be fine in a little while. But I’m not sure how they will react to what happened here… it might be a good idea for Roland to not be here when they recover. He says he was already planning on leaving. We go into the pub and Roland stops, looking at a dead woman. I recognize the bartender from earlier. She has been shot in the head and is holding a gun. Roland says she must have gone and said it… if only she had been able to hold out a little longer. He takes some supplies from the kitchen and leaves payment in the form of several gold coins and then turns to leave. He says he doesn’t know who MoSh or I am, but it looks like we have the power to change even the man in black’s infernal plans. I tell him we may meet again before this is all done. Before he can say more everything fades and I wake up.

Got a clear but brief DILD to note.

15 minunte WBTB during which I meditated and stretched. It took a while for me to experience hypnagogia/dreamlets, during which I'd unwittingly transitioned.


Dream 1 - Summer-ish Lucid Dream Competition 2017 - Day 13

Dreamlet transitioned to dream. The visuals were clear. I was driving an SUV, riding around a suburban town at daytime. My brother, Jordan was there with me as a passenger. We continue along for a few minutes, before ariviving at a dead end in the form of a pit blocked by foliage and a traffic barrier. By then, I'd gained awareness, and declared as much. I claimed I could drive us at a direct course through the trees unharmed. And indeed, the vehicle, my brother and I phased through those thickets, trees trunks, and even traffic rails. I expected to drop down the incline, only to continue on a straight line in mid-air and over to another road. "Alright", I shouted to Jordan, "we're gonna fly this thing to Vegas!" Another like dead end was ahead, to which I intentionally flew past while driving.

Things then quickly deteriorated before I could react.

Dream 1

I was watching a face and listening to someone mess with the face. Just like how in Mario Nintendo 64 you can mess with marios face by stretching it around for fun.I woke up after the eye's popped and thought "that was really weird".

Dream 2

I was in a room apparently resting since I was sick. As I waited in the room I thought I was falling asleep.After appearing in a sky I knew it was a dream and recalled spellbee competition but I was only semi lucid since I didn't have all my memory. I flew fast and around in the sky, even doing a dive for my third task. After that I made myself appear back at the house. I don't recall what happened after that.

Dream 3

I was in an unfamiliar house thinking I had moved to a tropical island.But I was sick so I wasn't planning on going out. However when I tried using the laptop to compliment someone's art I clicked a ad by mistake and suddenly some spammer replied to my comment saying sexual things.Annoyed I tried to delete the reply from the spammer and noticed I spelled lots of things wrong. When I tried fixing it lots of pics came up of the spammer who was a shirtless guy in one of his pics.

I tried clicking out but couldn't. This led to me somehow blowing the laptop with a hair dryer/spilling water on it and shouting for my mom to please take the laptop away. After taking it I was going to follow her outside into the snow but than I remembered I was hot so I couldn't. Once she left I noticed I was naked so I covered myself with blankets as I walked to look for the bathroom but when I looked out the window I saw people swimming under tropical clear beach water. One of them looked like a blonde guy D.C. I saw in my other dream. He looked kind of surprised to see me.Anyways I than turned to see beach water where part of the house use to be. I thought it could possibly be a dream but after taking note of cute sea horses i threw up.
