The Nomad Chronicles

I float up out of bed. I feel amazingly powerful. I face the center of the galaxy, and pray through the Black Hole to Eris, goddess of Chaos. “Imbue me with the Void.” A tiny piece of a black hole goes into the center of my Being. I smile with dark delight.
My silvery spaceship, “Future’s Hope” appears above me, and I float into it. I fly to the Moon. I find MoSh on the Mountain, staring into a fire. I sit across from him. We silently practice pyromancy.

Raven and I are sitting on the park bench by the Koi pond, and tossing food to the fish. They swim up and seem to smile at us. Raven, I really want to share dreams again, on a routine basis, I smile at her.

Yeah, she says, me too.

I've been so sick, Raven.

I know. She hugs me.

Let's go somewhere, anywhere, just open a portal, Raven.

Okay, she smiles, opening a portal. We walk through. A portal opens in the sky above a great battle. There are an army of goblin-Templars chasing a small group of humans and elves across a plain into a forest. We fly down upon the Templars. I transform into a black dragon, and land in the middle of them, crushing some. I laugh and breathe violet flame on them. Raven transforms into Queen of Night and blasts the Templars with lightning savagely. The Templars flee like crazed ants.

I transform into my Demon Self, Deathgawn. I summon my astral pet, the mad wolf-boar-beast, Jo and we go hunting down the stragglers. Raven tends to the wounded.

We meet the humans and elves in the forest. They open a secret door in a tree which leads to an underground lair. They tell us they've been hiding here for eons, but rarely come out during the day, for the Templars hunt them like animals.

(to be cont'd)

I am sitting meditating... but where am I? So many places at once... focus on one dream, one place, one timeline.

I am in my mediation room, sitting in BanYanLand in the Biodome on the Green Moon. An image appears in the mirror. Raven is battling orcs by herself in a forest. The scene looks strangely familiar... I leap into the mirror, and land in the forest. I am in the first dream I had with Raven in a battle together. I see my past self, Selene and Raven.
My past self looks at me curiously and smiles. I help the three in the battle. We slay all the orcs. Raven asks me why I showed up, and who I am. I tell her I am from the future. She laughs. I tell her I came into this dream by accident... or not...?

I tell her she is dreaming. She says she knows. I tell the same to my past self and Selene. They smile and laugh. Maybe I am here for me, and not for you, I comment.

"I love this dream. I love all our shared dreams, Raven. So amazing and beautiful."

I hug the three of them good-bye, and return to my timeline, as I know it.

I am riding in a truck with Winter in the back seat, but the interior looks like a stage coach. I remark how it's annoying to push aside curtains to look out the window. Oh, is the driver offended? oops.

***abridged due to pain***

Raven and I return to the Biodome. We go to the Balancing Pools, and sit in them to balance our dark and light energies. Selene and Pixy, Koomo and Michael, Angelina and Gabrielle, Hydro and Skyfire, my Witchblade and DJ Hope, and Francois and Aphrodite emanate out of me somehow.

We become balanced. Raven's eyes are black and white. She smiles at me benignly.

**abridged due to pain***

I leap out of bed. I am a savage white werelion with a necklace of tiny skulls around my neck. I roar and create a portal with a bone-dagger.

I leap through, spinning, and land on the moon.

I am near the koi pond. Raven is watching the fish.

She looks at me. I morph into a quicksilver dragon, then a giant three headed canine with the head of a pit bull, a wolf, and a chihuahua. I growl softly.

"FLUFFY!" Raven laughs and hugs me.

"Someone is going to have nightmares tonight." Raven slams her fist into her palm, and she becomes enwreathed in violet and black flame. Her dress becomes black, and she grows two horns. Her eyes become green and lavender. She laughs maniacally and creates a portal.

A zombie-basset hound head comes out of my chest, and sniffs the ground. We leap into the portal, and end up in the bedroom of a fat want to be badass. He has posters of Sylvester Stallone on his walls and some dumbells on the floor.

"So, this is the sadistic "bad ass" that tortures dogs for pleasure?" Raven asks.

I leap on to his chest and smell him with my zombie-hound head. "Yep. This is our target."

Raven chuckles, and I quietly growl with all four heads. The room vibrates with the rumbles. The man's astral body wakes up. I bark with my pit bull head, howl with my wolf head, bay with my hound head, and yip maniacally with my chihuahua head. The din is maddening.

The man screams in sheer terror, trying to push me off of him. I jump off and he runs out the door into the street. Raven and I teleport outside, and Raven summons a wall in front of him which he slams into.

I roar, and alter the landscape to be a giant puppy mill completely on fire. I turn the man's clothes into a dog costume. He runs around freaking out. Raven creates a small cage, which he runs into.

We slowly walk into it. The man is backed up against a wall. The man's face is frozen in a silent scream. Raven creates a portal on the back wall. It looks sinister with black thorns swirling around it.

"only one way out," Raven states flatly.

The man looks at us. I am frothing at all four mouths. He leaps into a portal to Hell. We follow.

The man falls down for hours, and lands on a boulder in a great cavern full of fiery pits. Demon dogs fly about in pain and anger. I leap upon him, and devour his innards. He writhes and screams in pain. Raven shoots a bolt of lightning into his mouth placidly. His body reforms.

Raven and I merge into a great fiery angel-demon. We grab the man, and fling him into outer space, and follow. "here you will die, o 'brave warrior'," I whisper.

"Who are you?" He screams.

"WE ARE VENGEANCE!"

The man wakes up. We are in his room, a dark witch and monster. He sits up and sees us. "We are Nightmares." he screams and wets the bed. We laugh and fade away.

I am in a house that has poltergeist problems.

The occupants have asked me to`come and banish the demon(s).

They have sectioned off the haunted part of the house with a curtain. I pull the curtain back, and a dark wind blows out from a large empty plain shrine.

I cast a spell and banish the darkness. SUNTULU D'ZATN!

A red and gold footstool flies out of the room and hits me, paralyzing my mouth. I can no longer speak.

I realize I left my Staff of Chaos (which I have IWL) outside the room. I retrieve it. A crazed half-posessed human tries to attack me.

I swing the staff in a small circle, spinning a tooth on the end of a string on the bottom of the staff, and the human backs up.

I struggle to speak, but I have lockjaw.

[I]I awake.[/I]

I am at my friends' place, Bobby and Lauren. We are sitting on the carpet talking.

My friend Tamara enters in in a Catwoman costume. She says she is going to kidnap me and do things to me.

She ties me up, and I begin to sweat in fear and excitement. I am in the trunk of her car, and I bounce out, right through the trunk lid like a ghost.

Now, we are in her place. She ties me to the bed, and tickle tortures me with a feather, laughing at me.

Do I like this?

She pulls my pants off and smiles.

:cheeky:

I am at Kulkulkan, weeping, sitting at the top of the pyramid.

Raven flies down and asks me what's wrong.
[I]
FUCK 2012. Everything's falling apart. I hate my waking life. I just want to live here forever.[/I]

Raven says nothing, but sends healing energy to me. I stop crying, and stand up and give her a hug.

[I]I miss you, I miss MoSh... I am so frustrated with my broken body in Wakeworld.[/I]

[COLOR="blue"]But, we're here now, Nomad. Come.[/COLOR]

Raven opens a portal to the Healing Glen, and we step through. We are in a lovely glen in a deciduous/pine forest in late winter. The Frost Giant steps through, parting trees like cane stalks.

"The winter is almost past, brother. Spring is coming soon."

I collapse on the grass in exhaustion. MoSh, Tigress, and Pablo appear, and I feel them healing me as tears silently pour out of my closed eyes. I hear music... Bakara... everyone is playing music. I get up, and we take turns healing each other.

We walk back to the Frost Giant's Cave. Joseph is there. He is now a young teenage boy, about 15. He smiles at me, and turns into a giant eagle. I applaud and laugh. He turns back into a boy, and suddenly bursts into tears. "Thank you for rescuing me from the nightstalker demon." He grabs Raven and I and hugs us tightly.

"Everyone, come by the fire, I made some stew," says the Frost Giant. "We will reforge ancient bonds as we share food, drink, and stories."

(to be continued when my hands don't hurt.)

I had some cool adventure dreams last night.

***

Exploring a South American rainforest with an explorer-mentor. We fly next to a very steep misty mountain, then land on the forest floor.

I look for something to carry water in. I find a jug and a bucket.

***

I am in a big outdoor mall or temple in a modern setting in France. I admire the beauty of two Indian women walking by... or are they Mexican?

a boy shows me a crawlspace.

I follow it to a small cell. the hole disappears.

a man in a suit comes by and shoves some boxes in a window.

I am in a tiny cell for hours.

I have to find a way out. A door appears. I go through. I am in a hall like a hotel with a camera in the corner. They are watching. I run down the hall and open doors, ending up on a stage where they have their sex slaves perform.

The audience has a bunch of lawyers, politicians, cops, and gangsters.

I scream at them, 'I KNOW WHAT THE FUCK THIS PLACE IS, AND WHO THE FUCK YOU ARE, YOU SICK BASTARDS!"

I flip them the double bird, and exit stage right, sprinting through seven double doors, I make it outside into fresh air.

I fly up into the night sky.

frag

A couple friends of mine are visiting. I bang something... the door into my face. A tooth gets loose and falls out. Another one is there to grow in its place.

I tell my friends what happened. Mykey shrugs and laughs.

I tell them I'm down to hang out still if they want.

frag

I am in front of a great black temple at night on a stone platform.

I hack away at a great black obelisk with my Moonblade.

I destroy the obelisk, and a pair of diamond nunchaku appear.

I pick it up and swing them around. It morphs into different flexible weapons.

I wonder if I am moving in waking life.

I wake up.

I am sitting with Eris and Selene on The Mountain on The Green Moon, overlooking the strange city in New Eden AKA The Biodome.

We stare in silence.

Eris?

Yes, Nomad.

Are you real? Do you love me?

I love you as you love me, my beautiful wandering soul.

Selene, how long have we been here?

We have been here, my love, since the beginning of time.

***

I am with Raven in her Inner World, we are at Vegeta's house.

We are discussing dream battling and training. Vegeta tells me I am finally showing improvement.

***

I am in the Invisibles comic. I am with King Mob and Ragged Robin. I tell them I am a Time Witch.

***

I am with Mosh in his Inner World. He has some kind of funny big pet snake which hunts down astral parasites and eats them.

***

I am in The Tower with Washu. She says she wants to help me heal my physical body.

I am with Mosh and Raven on the Moon, in the Biodome on the Moon.

***

I appear near the koi pond. Raven is staring at the fish. She is very sad. I alter my aura, and heal myself, then I send her healing blue-gold energy. She looks up at me, and smiles.

I walk to her, and give her a hug. Mosh tumbles out of a portal, and dusts himself off. The three of us group hug, then hold hands without saying anything.

We link telepathically.

One thing we have in common, is how much pain and sorrow we've been through... are going through, the three of us.

I am going to come here, when my physical body dies, I am going to come here AND LIVE FOREVER ON THE GREEN MOON!

***

A portal opens. Selene and Eris step out. We go through the portal, and are on some strange mountaintop on another planet.

We follow a path of funny floating stones to a white Greek temple, the Temple of Kaos.

Eris smiles, and grabs my hand leading me to the Temple. There are great white pillars, with birds and bats circling the pillars which are eating insects which are eating bacteria which are are...

fuck! fractal hole!

Eris laughs at me, and we enter.

Dominating the center is a huge three dimensional chaosphere, hundreds of feet in diameter, floating above a pedestal, and slowly spinning.

One of the arrows shoots into my third eye, and I scream madly. I feel so much pain, pleasure, terror, delight, and pure fucking insanity.

***

I am in a candlelit sidechamber with lovely braziers, incense burners, flowers, and big pillows, mattresses, and sheer curtains everywhere. Selene and Eris grin mischievously, and push me down on a bed. "We are all goddesses and gods," I hear them say in my head.

Smoke swirls into a vortex above us. Gold dust floats through the air. I smell incense, roses, and the smell of earthly women. I turn and look at a pillow. I see extreme detail in the texture, even slightly imperfect seams.

I look into the eyes of my goddesses, and I see such amazing detail in their eyes. Eris with violet eyes, and blue-black hair, Selene her big black eyes, and snow white hair, her little pointed nose, small pouty mouth that I know so well.

"Yes, everything is real, Nomad," Selene whispers in my ear.

"I am... real," Eris giggles and she kisses my ear.

HOLY SHIT, AM I ON DMT?

"Not this time, Love, your own DMT," Selene tells me telepathically, and she unbuttons my shirt. "You are dreaming. Dreaming a Real Dream. This is beyond the Dream Plane. You are PHYSICALLY INCARNATE in THIS Dimension, and WE are GOING to FUCK!"

With that, she grabs my manhood, and she feels 100% real.

"YES! I LOVE YOU!" I sit up, and wrap myself around Selene, and kiss her passionately as I grab Eris, and pull her close. The three of us kiss, then I just kiss Eris, and I feel as if I just 8 the Apple of Discord.

"You are the Prettiest One, and You are," I say to Eris, then Selene.

"You are the Man in the Moon, and I love you so," Selene giggles as we make love.

"You are now a High Priest unto Kaos, and forever will you lick my vesica pisces," Eris laughs. "Or a Low Priest, fucker... yes... lower."

"Wherever the fuck this dimension is, I am coming HERE when I die!"

"Your will is divine, my lord," Selene grins and she kneels.

"I AM GOD!"

"You're the God of Nothing!" Eris giggles and she pushes me down and kisses my neck.
