Dream No. 439 - Curious Dreamer

I don’t remember much about this dream. From where I can remember, I was walking into the grounds of the private hospital in my old local area. I scaled the gardens on the floor that was next to the road and looking into one of the corridors through the window, I caught sight of an elevator. I looked uneasy as it opened and thought to myself, “If 18-Volt was here, I’d try to take it”. The dream ended there and I woke up.

Dream No. 438 - A Baby At Fifty One

I don’t remember much about this dream. From where do remember, I was in the kitchen and I found out that my mum had another baby, at her current real life age of fifty one! Frankly, I was amazed because she did have a hysterectomy done so I thought she wouldn’t be able to have anymore children. It took a while for the fact to sink in that I had a sibling, a little baby brother, that was 20 years younger than me and 22 years younger than my big brother, who also exists in real life.

The family were having a hard time deciding what to name the baby. I came up with heaps of ideas but no matter what I said, my mum liked none of them but was still reluctant to give any input herself. One name suggestion I can clearly remember was Darren. That’s all I can remember for this dream.

Morning of October 6, 2018. Saturday.

Dream #: 18,919-01. Reading time: 1 min 45 sec. Readability score: 63.



Entering the usual (projected in this stage) vestibular system correlation phase (always based on the subliminal, liminal, or lucid anticipation of the process rather than anything to do with waking life), I find myself back in Cubitis in the early afternoon, in the front yard. I am watching airplanes flying south in the blue sky above. It goes on for seemingly a long time. (Although this is a common dream situation, having been so for over fifty years, it does not have the same essence or mood as my watching the sky before dawn dreams. Those carry more of a deep, blissful nostalgia and happiness, with a false memory of otherworldly activity occurring at about two to three in the morning.)

There are others with me, though they are unfamiliar people. Everyone in this dream is cheerful. My conscious self identity does not exist in this space. Even the neighbors to the immediate south are unknown and unfamiliar. There are no thoughts of the real history with the real-life neighbors of 1968-1978.

At times, I consider that I could cause an airplane to crash (though I am not viably lucid) by anticipating it, though I do not focus on human fatality here. Sometimes one of the planes flies close to the ground in the distance, but there are no explosions. Eventually, I see that a Cessna is in the driveway of the neighbor immediately to the south as if it had been there all along. I point this out to one of the other people in the front yard.

My dream wavers into an indoor setting, where the Cessna is now indoors, in the neighbor’s living room. It is behind the couch (and is not much longer than it) in about the center of the room, though it does not have wings. The owner had called it “fake” even though it is not. He and his wife sit inside the airplane and watch television. The plane faces west.

Eventually, the man cheerfully talks about having a snake around somewhere, which he put in the room on purpose. I am not concerned and do not see a snake anywhere, though slowly wake at this point.

---

Since childhood, I have understood the vestibular system correlation avatar to be a specific form of RAS personification (the waking process linked to the reticular formation in REM sleep). Once again, this is validated, as the core RAS manifestation (in all primates, not just human beings) is a snake. It is almost as if the preconscious is playing with me by talking about having put a snake somewhere in the room with the wingless airplane.

Dream One

I was on a large ship in the ocean. In the distance, coming ever closer, I could see many islands. The majority of these islands were raised hundreds of feet above sea level. They had steep rocky cliffs. They were tropical islands and very full of greenery. It's never stated by anyone in the dream, but I believe this is a region of Ethos known as the Splintered Archipelago. I have never been here before. The ship starts to pass through among the islands. Someone of higher rank mentions to me that I have over 1000 more days of servitude left. It's not necessarily slavery, but it seems I am bound by a contract to serve an organization. Based on some conversations about guilds aboard the ship, I believe that I may be in service to an explorer's guild. There may even be members of other sorts of guilds aboard the ship.

The dream skips and I am now in the ship's interior. I am in a large room with a single table. I am standing next to many other people in a circle surrounding the table. Only two people are sitting at the table across from each other. This meeting appears to be political or business in nature. One of these men was the leader of an empire. They were discussing the expansion of his empire into the archipelago. The man on the left removed a folder of secret documents from his bag and slid it across the table. A deal had just been made. I remember getting a strong feeling of mistrust in this moment. I believe the man passing over the documents is trying to deceive the other man. "He's lying." I whispered. They continued discussing their plans and I wake up.

Dream Two

I am on a ship again but this time it is an air ship flying high above the archipelago. I am at the bottom of the ship standing by an open hatch that reveals the world below. A man next to me is giving me orders. He points to a large island below and it becomes highlighted in my own vision. He tells me that I must go down there and explore the area. He wants me to chart the area and bring back any artifacts or items worthy of research. He says that good work will help take days off my time of servitude. I jump off the ship and start diving down to the islands. I see more detail as I get closer. I see that there are some villages, ancient ruins, and old forts on the islands. There are also many boats in the water. I remembered that I had seen the archipelago in a previous dream. I become lucid as I continue to fall and examine the islands. It's not a high degree of lucidity and I still carry out my original objective. I move towards the area that was highlighted in my vision. It appears to be an ancient tower.

The dream skips and I am now in a cove. The water is shallow and it is full of crates and debris from a wreckage. I start to break open crates in the shallow water to see what I find. I only remember finding rope, small tools, and some coins. There was a very large crate in the water. It was twice my size. I couldn't find a way to open it, so I tried to break it open by hitting it with a board. The crate quivered when I hit it. It was as if it was made of jello. It also growled at me after I hit it. I sensed now that it wasn't a crate but something alive. I even thought that it might have been a mimic. I woke up before I could find out.

Morning of October 5, 2018. Friday.

Dream #: 18,918-01. Reading time: 2 min 51 sec. Readability score: 54.



My conscious self as in waking life experiences its annihilation in the non-lucid dream state, and as my subconscious self, I lose viable memory of who I am and the contact with my unconscious mind that I possess in waking life. All that remains within my temporary dream self’s fictitious mind is the subliminal awareness of being in the dream state, and the essence of non-lucid dream control and its dynamics gathered from a lifetime of knowledge of the dream state.

Wanting to liminally return my incomplete dream self essence to at least partial coalescence with my conscious self, I create a school setting to metaphorically learn my way back to my conscious identity to pull myself at least partially out of the illusory dream state into the liminal pre-wakefulness range of a more realistic self-awareness and mode of discernment. The teacher is an unknown female standing near the center of the classroom of which is mostly featureless. I am in the room near the doorway, to its left when facing it. All of the other students (unfamiliar), male and female, several adults and children of different ages, are outside the classroom, in the hall. They are all unsure if they want to enter the classroom but are listening to the teacher. The class is just beginning, so they have time to consider their choices.

I am sitting on the wooden floor with my legs out, with the bottoms of my feet facing the doorway. All that I am wearing is a white t-shirt. I do not feel embarrassed. After all, I am in a dream and not wearing clothes as I sleep in a bed, even if that understanding is only subliminal. (Even as a child, I knew my transient fictitious dream self was not my conscious self as in reality. That may be why I have rarely ever had “bad” dreams other than when biologically premonitory.)

My illusory erroneous “I am” adjusts to the scenario. I am not lucid or holding any essence of my current conscious self identity, but being near the doorway is a factor of liminal emerging consciousness. The preconscious avatar awakens and comes into existence to my left, still malleable and passive. I allow the five youngest denizens (from a prior unification star ritual in a previous lucid dream) to cheerfully enter the classroom and continue behind me to begin their studies. I do not recall the purpose of the lucid ritual in my non-lucidity.

I decide to converse with the preconscious avatar, an unfamiliar male of about thirty in this incarnation, liminally attempting to transform him into a potential dream state reinducer. On the right side of my right foot is a tattoo of a big golden wind-up key. In reality, this side of my body is exposed to my real environment (as I sleep on my left side). Yellow is the color of potentially viable consciousness within the dream state. That is the link to my true self, to my conscious self identity as in waking life, and the potential for my conscious self identity to manifest within my dream self. This wind-up key is autosymbolism (and a liminal reminder that my dream self’s physicality is not real) for beginning the transition of my true conscious self into my fictitious non-lucid dream self so that my conscious will can more viably maintain the simulacrum and perhaps sustain the dream state for a time.

The avatar marvels at my tattoo, and that amuses me.

My precursory lucidity holds his attention, though he does not attempt to dominate the process.

“I got this when I was in New York,” I deliberately lie, though as it is a dream, it could very well become the “real” backstory should my dream last for several more minutes. “The tattoo artist was a man named Gabriel Vartez.” I pull this name out of nowhere. “Vartez” has no familiarity though “Gabrielle” is Zsuzsanna’s middle name (though my dream self still does not viably remember my current conscious self status here). I am describing this fictitious event to him as if it were a significant encounter.

“That’s interesting,” he responds with admiration, “Gary Vartez?”

This erroneous response annoys me, but I do not say anything or indicate my annoyance. Instead, I choose to wake peacefully.

Bunch of old dreams from the last time I got on a major DJ spree. I wrote a lot of these in third person. It sounds weird but I dream from the perspective of different characters often and it provides me with clarification.

April 14, 2014

Dream One

Lucidis and Krystal were out together in some town. They had to drive to some place that wasn’t important enough for me to remember. Lucidis entered the driver’s seat of his car and Krystal entered the passenger seat. After they put on their seatbelts, a man who was hiding in the back of the car revealed himself. He put a gun against Lucidis’s head. “You’re going to drive me to the border. Understand?” He said. “Okay, I didn’t want you in my country anyways,” said Lucidis.

The drive was going smoothly until Krystal said something to make the guy point his gun at her head. When that happened, Lucidis decided to make a hard left turn that flipped the car onto its side. The man who was not wearing his seatbelt fell over. Lucidis then removed his seatbelt and proceeded to beat up the man until he was dazed. Afterwards, Lucidis put the guy in the trunk, flipped the car back onto its wheels, and then continued the drive to the border. Lucidis stopped the vehicle after he passed a sign that read, “BORDER”. Lucidis pulled the guy out of the trunk, placed him on the ground, and then drove away.

Dream Two

Lucidis, Chris, and Claire were sitting on a couch playing a video game on a console. They were playing some kind of go-kart racing game. “Why are we playing a go-kart game when we can race in real life?” asked Lucidis. Claire’s in game character then proceeded to shoot Lucidis’s character with a shotgun. This killed his character and caused his go-kart to crash in a fiery explosion. “Because Claire would kill us all,” Chris said. “Alright then,” said Lucidis.

The rest of the dream consisted of the three of them racing and shooting at each other. Don’t really remember the details of it.

Dream Three

Lucidis was deep inside a volcanic chasm. The chasm was close to erupting. Magma was starting to rise and rocks were falling all over the place. It was very hot and very loud. There were nests with dragon eggs in them along the sides of the chasm. Lucidis was flying around the chasm in his dragon form. In a panic, he was trying to gather and save as many dragon eggs as possible.

Dream Four

Lucidis, Chris, Claire, and Krystal were in Scillia City, the capital of the country of Ariala. The queen of Ariala had apparently sent letters to them before. She wanted to meet them, though the letters didn’t say why. Rather than going straight to the queen’s palace, they chose to take some time to tour the city. Nothing eventful really happened in this dream. It was just exploring and site seeing.

It was a lively city. Many people wandering through the streets socializing and doing business with each other. The people of this city really liked plants. There were many different kinds of flowering plants decorating the city. It was as if half the city was a garden.

Places of interest: There was a statue of a woman who was probably the founder of the city and country in the town center. The city had a massive library with many books. Krystal was quickly lost in there. There was a park which was nice, big, and naturey. There were also about 50 different flower shops.

Dream Five

A continuation of the previous dream with a time skip.

The queen had said that an army of Grayle was planning to invade Ariala near the site of Easthorpe. Easthorpe was a small town on the eastern border of Ariala. The country on the other side of the border would be Grayle. She asked the group nicely to go to Easthorpe and protect it. She also mentioned that it was important to protect something called the Eternal Garden, but that never became an issue.

The Ariala Army had already moved out of Easthorpe and into the badlands where they would encounter the enemy. When the group arrived at Easthorpe, some guy on a horse stopped by them. He gave them a written message from the army commander and then rode off somewhere. The message instructed Chris and Claire to go on ahead to meet with the army. Lucidis and Krystal were instructed to find a hermit shack outside of Easthorpe. A guy named Renald lived there and they were supposed to ask him about keys. So Lucidis and Krystal set out to find the Renald guy while Chris and Claire set out to join the army.

Lucidis and Krystal found the Renald guy in his hermit shack and asked him about keys. He then proceeded to ramble some weird stuff about ancient civilizations, long lost relic keys, and magical super weapons. That basically meant that near Easthorpe there was an ancient magic device that could be used to defend Easthorpe. However, know one knew where the relics were, so it couldn’t be activated.

The guy on the horse came back and delivered another message from the commander. The message said that the Ariala Army was forced to retreat back to Easthorpe. The message also strongly encouraged Lucidis and Krystal to hurry up with the key thing.

There was no time to go looking for relics, so Renald offered an alternative. Renald was able to create a temporary key by transferring nearly all of Lucidis’s magical power into a small orb. He told them that the key would guide them to the ancient device and that the key would only work for a short time. So Krystal took the orb and ran in the direction the orb told her to. Lucidis followed.

The orb guided them into the badlands, where the sounds of war elephants could be heard in the distance. The enemy was approaching Easthorpe quickly. Krystal and Lucidis took a shortcut by sliding down some cliffs. Lucidis lost his balance and fell. He landed on a stone platform with the writings of an ancient language engraved into it. This was the magical device they were looking for. Krystal was going to activate it with the orb key, but my alarm woke me up.

Dream One

River was a student involved in some schooling program thing related to emergency medicine. River was walking down a hospital hall and heard a patient from a nearby room yelling for a doctor. Students weren't allowed to interact with patients without being supervised by a doctor. There was no one else anywhere nearby however, so River decided to check on the guy.

River entered the patient's room and found him sitting up in bed. He looked pretty sickly and was wheezing. Using a phone mounted on a wall, River attempted to call a doctor to the room. As she was doing this, the patient starting coughing badly and there was some blood coming out. The skin on the left side of his chest kind of just popped out. It was as if it had been rotting or something. Among other things, his heart fell out of his chest, though it was still connected. The man's coughing also turned to choking.

River panicked and dropped the phone. She forced the guy to lay back down on the bed. She put his heart and other gubbins inside his chest. She then put the flap of skin that came off back in place. She found a stapler on a desk in the room and quickly used that to staple the skin together so it wouldn't come off again. After all of that was done, the guy passed out and was breathing again.

River was then kicked out of school because a stapler apparently isnt proper surgical equipment.

Dream One

This dream was from the perspective of Meadow.

Meadow was in the shower doing shower stuff. As he was showering, he could sense what felt like a dream. He also realized that he didn’t even remember going into the shower. This was reason enough to convince him that he was dreaming.

Meadow left the shower and put some clothes on. He entered a room where his father, Steve, was going a bit nuts. Books that would have otherwise been resting on shelves were now scattered all over the floor. Steve was searching frantically through the shelves for something. When Meadow questioned Steve about his behavior, Steve said, “I had a very important book on Umbras that I wanted to show you, but it suddenly disappeared!” “What’s an Umbra?” Meadow asked. “You know how your mother would be called a human? Well, I’m called an Umbra, and you’re half a human and half an Umbra,” said Steve.

Steve then proceeded to go back to tearing the room apart and flipping furniture. Meadow decided to leave his father be and go for a walk outside. He went out the backdoor, which he noticed had been left open. A distance away, he saw what looked like Sol and Rosalina sneaking away with a book about Umbras. Knowing how important the book was to his father, Meadow was determined to get it back.

Meadow relaxed himself and took a deep breath. He concentrated and visualized himself becoming engulfed in shadows. It was a slow process, but he managed to shift from his human form to his Umbra form. He started running after them and began floating just above the ground after reaching a high speed. He yelled at them to stop, but that only made them want to run away faster.

They ran past some buildings and then into an alleyway. There was a large chain link fence blocking the middle of the alley. Rosalina and Sol climbed up and over the fence and ran around the corner. Meadow saw no need for climbing and simply phased through the fence. He flew around the corner and entered a weird sandy enclosure. Sol and Rosalina were now missing, but there were these two other people there, a man and a woman. They were very ugly and looked kind of deformed. The one guy even had 4 arms.

The four armed dude summoned some knives in his hands and started throwing them at Meadow. Using psychic powers, meadow stopped the knives and held them in front of him. He then turned the knives around and propelled them back towards his enemy. The man jumped up out of the way and stuck onto a nearby wall. It was at this moment that Meadow noticed he lost track of where the woman was. Immediately after realizing she was behind him, he felt a sharp pain in his back.

I woke up, but I really wanted to get back in that dream. So I rolled over and did a DEILD.

Dream Two

This dream was also from the perspective of Meadow.

Meadow’s eyes were closed, but he could still feel the dream around him. He also started to hear the voices of people talking. He opened his eyes and realized he was laying on a stone floor. Rosalina and Sol were there and they helped him get on his feet. The three of them were trapped in a small dungeon-like prison room.

Meadow asked them why they stole the Umbra book and why they were in a dungeon. Sol and Rosalina then explained to him that it was those two ugly people that stole the book. They had used potions to transform themselves into Sol and Rosalina. They were apparently part of a group that was obsessed with learning the secrets of transformations and shape shifting. Meadow and Rosalina were captured to be experimented on because they’re capable of shape shifting. Sol was probably there by accident.

There was a small vent at the bottom of the wall blocked by metal bars. Meadow figured he could probably slip through those bars if he could transform into an Umbra. He tried to transform, but for some reason he couldn’t. Rosalina said she couldn’t transform either. Meadow looked through the vent and developed another plan. He could see keys laying on the edge of a table outside the room. He used his psychic powers to pull the keys off the table and through the vent.

Keys are noisy. Everyone who was working outside the room heard and saw it happen. So once Meadow had the keys, a man yelled, “Release the snakes! Paralyze them!” Another man then pulled a lever and dozens of red, black, yellow pattern snakes dropped from the ceiling. Meadow and Rosalina were terrified and both backed up into a corner. Sol just stood in the middle of them and stared. He said, “Red on yellow, kill a fellow. Red on black, won’t hurt jack.” The color pattern of the snakes was red on black, which meant they were nonvenomous. Meadow and Rosalina then relaxed when they figured it out.

Meadow walked past the snakes and unlocked the prison door. Outside the prison was a cave full of potions, plants, tools, and strange devices. Probably a workshop for alchemists. The three of them walked out of the prison and into the workshop. The leader, a tall old man with a Gandalf beard, saw them and shouted, “You idiots got the wrong snakes!”

Meadow found the Umbra book sitting on a table and held on to it. From that point on it was pretty chaotic. The alchemists were running around frantically as Sol, Rosalina, and Meadow were destroying and fighting their way through the cave. Meadow was especially having fun with his psychic powers. He would levitate people and various objects above his head and hurl them all around the room. By the time they were done, it looked like a tornado had wrecked the place.

The three of them ran out of the cave and escaped. Meadow intended to walk back home and bring the Umbra book back to his father. Meadow tried reading the book as he walked home. It was written in weird letterings that he didn’t understand. The more he tried to focus on it the more complicated it became. The dream destabilized and he woke up.

Dream Three

A continuation of Dream Five from April 14, 2014. This dream was from Claire’s perspective.

Lucidis, Chris, and Claire were all back in Easthorpe, which had now become pretty fortified. They were preparing to defend it from the approaching army. Krystal had apparently stayed at the ancient super magic device thing to figure out how it works.

“I don’t really have enough magic left to fight, so I’ll just do this,” said Lucidis. He raised his hands up in the air and used the last of his magic to summon Nea, his dragon. Nea roared and flew down from the sky and landed next to Lucidis. Lucidis passed out from magic exhaustion, which is apparently now a thing.

Claire mounted Nea and commanded her to fly. They flew up into the sky and over top the approaching army. Claire looked down and noticed that there was already chaos among the enemy. Krystal had apparently figured out how the device works and used its magic on herself. She was glowing brightly and radiating with magic. She could easily take down a soldier in a single hit and blades shattered when they struck her. She was practically invincible.

Claire was aware that the invincibility would only last for a short time. Claire rode the dragon down to the battlefield and had her attack as many soldiers as possible with her ice attacks. They had to defeat as many soldiers as possible before Krystal’s power wore off.

The battle went on for some time before she woke up, but there aren’t many details about it.

Dream Four

Short fragment from Lucia’s perspective. Of all the things that can make me lucid, this fragment did not.

Lucia was at a zoo helping out the zookeepers. She was giving bathes to a family of pandas.

April 20, 2014

Dream One

This dream was from Lucidis’s perspective. It was a continuation of Dream Three from April 19, 2014. It was a long dream.

Lucidis was laying in bed. He had apparently just “awakened”. The room was bright with sunlight from a nearby window. It was irritating his eyes. “Gah, it’s morning already? I just went to sleep,” Lucidis thought to himself. Lucidis got out of bed and realized that he was in a hospital room. He looked out the window and saw what looked like Scillia City. Lucidis did a reality check and became lucid.

Lucidis left his room and started walking down the hall. He walked past a room, but then stopped. He sensed that Krystal was in there and poked his head into the room to look. He saw Krystal laying in bed reading a book. He noticed that she had some injuries. “Are you okay? What happened to you?” Lucidis asked. “I just fought an entire army and won! I feel great!” she said. “Yeah, I seem to have missed out on that.” Lucidis said. “I’ll probably be stuck here for a few days. Can you get me some books?” she asked. “Alright, I will get some books and come back later,” Lucidis said.

Lucidis left the hospital and walked to the local library. When Lucidis got to the library, he remembered that the library is ridiculously big. He also realized he had no idea what kinds of books Krystal would want. So his solution was to just run to random parts of the library and pick random books from random shelves until he had enough of them. After gathering about five books, Lucidis left the library and began walking back to the hospital.

There were like three different flower shops between the library and hospital. Lucidis decided to go into one of them and buy some flowers for Krystal. He bought some of these bright orange flowers that were called Medellae or something like that. He then walked back to Krystal’s room at the hospital. She had fallen asleep, so Lucidis just set the books and flowers on a table next to the bed.

Lucidis left the room and went back out into the hall. Claire was standing against a wall there waiting for him. “Let’s go train,” she said. “Let’s not,” Lucidis said. “It doesn’t look like you have anything better to do,” she said. Lucidis wanted to think of something better to do, but his brain just stopped working and he couldn’t come up with an answer. So he had nothing better to do than go to the park and exercise.

*insert training montage of running, push ups, and sit ups here*

And then he woke up completely covered in sweat and it was not great.

Dream Two

This dream was from Meadow’s perspective. It was a continuation of Dream Two from April 19, 2014. It was a medium dream.

Meadow was sitting at a desk in his room reading that book about Umbras. The writing in it was more coherent this time and it was possible to read. There were chapters about things like the creation of Umbras, Umbra characteristics, Umbra history, and Umbra culture. Meadow skipped all that stuff and went straight to the chapter on Umbra powers and abilities. Meadow was more interested in learning about how to control his power.

The chapter mentioned some weird stuff like, “If an Umbra were a Pokemon, it would be a dark/ghost/psychic type” and “Umbras have high special attack but low HP.” It did have some more reasonable and useful information though. Umbras can enter a more gaseous or cloud form in order to slip through small gaps that they wouldn’t be able to move through in their regular form. They have the ability to levitate, which makes them immune to ground type moves, but they usually can’t fly far from the ground.

Umbras have various psychokinetic abilities that allow them to manipulate objects with pure will. If they close their eyes, they can detect nearby auras. They have some weird meditative technique that allows them to see places away from their body. They also have the ability to connect to another person’s mind and communicate telepathically.

There was still more to read on the subject, but someone tapped Meadow on the shoulder and it startled him enough to make him fall out of his chair. It was Rosalina. Meadow looked up at her from the floor and an idea popped into his head. “Maybe I can use telepathy on her to read her mind,” he thought. “Umm, hi?” Rosalina said after the period of silence. Meadow didn’t respond. He just stared into her eyes intently, trying to connect to her mind.

Meadow succeeded and was able to hear some of her thoughts. “Why is he just staring at me? This is awkward. He should really just say something. All I wanted to do was ask him if he wanted to hang out,” she thought. Meadow immediately thought, “Oh, I’d love to hang out!” Meadow didn’t realize that being connected to Rosalina’s mind meant that she could hear his thoughts too. “Are you in my head?!” she thought. Meadow then responded in his thoughts with, “No.”

This all really freaked Rosalina out for some reason. She yelled, “Get out!” and then kicked Meadow in the groin. Meadow then woke up.

Dream Three

This dream was from Lucia’s perspective. It was a short dream.

Lucia was sitting in a school classroom with Luna during free period. Don’t remember the details, but the conversation was related to how Pokemon are weird. Lucia heard the school bell ring and knew it was time to head to class.

Lucia walked out of the classroom into the hall. There were these weird obstacle courses in the halls like monkey bars, low walls, and nets. Lucia then remembered that in a dream from a while back, the school implemented this obstacles course to cut out gym class. Their logic was, “Now students can do gym class between classes instead! That will save them plenty of time for studying!” That doesn’t really make anything better, it just makes it harder to get to class.

Lucia became lucid upon seeing the obstacles course and remembering the old dream. Lucia didn’t know which class she was supposed to go to. She remembered that she was supposed to multiply something for the LC. So she decided to go to math class to complete that task.

She navigated the big dumb obstacle course, entered the math room, and took a seat at the front row desk. The teacher in the room was just throwing out random math questions to students and expecting them to answer. The questions ranged from very simple to impossible to answer.

“What is the square root of a right triangle to the power of 5?” he asked. “Pi!” someone immediately shouted. The teacher then threw a stick of chalk at his head and said, “Raise your hand before answering a question!” “What is 86 + 10?” he asked. Lucia raised her hand and said, “92.” “Close enough,” the teacher said. “If I have 54 gold pieces and loan 30 of them to my friend, how many silver pieces will I have if payed back with 2% interest?” Can’t remember the answer to that one, but it was apparently right or close enough. “If today is April 20, what will it be 7 days from now?” Lucia jumped up when she remembered that was an LC task. “April 27!” she yelled. “Raise your hand first!” he yelled. Lucia raised both of her hands and yelled, “April 27!” “Sit down!” he ordered.

“What is 12 x 17?” he asked. Lucia figured she would probably be wrong on this, but she wanted to make a good effort. She broke the problem down into a simpler form. “17 and 10 make 170. Another 17 will make 187. Another 17 will make 194,” she thought. Lucia raised her hand and said, “194.” “Right!” said the teacher. (It’s not right, the real answer is 204.)

Dream Four

This dream was from Meadow’s perspective. It was a continuation of Dream Two from April 19, 2014. It was a short dream.

Meadow, Rosalina, Sol, Nhal, and River were all together walking through the Aranian town of Oakgrin. It was apparently Oakgrin’s 100th anniversary, so they were holding a full on festival. It was a pretty big deal to them. River was using this as an opportunity to introduce Nhal to Aranian culture. While River was making Nhal eat foods like Ari Cakes, to which he said tasted like diabetes, the other three wandered off to do their own things.

Sol had apparently found a Blitzeria Muffin vendor. Blitzeria Muffins were apparently known for having a variety of different flavor options, with each muffin being as flavorful as physically possible. Sol bought a lemon flavored Blitzeria Muffin, which was probably unimaginably sour. Meadow, having a sense of humor, used telepathy on Sol. “You should eat it all in one bite,” Meadow said in Sol’s mind. “You know what? I think I’m going to eat this muffin in one bite,” Sol said. Rosalina then jumped in and said, “No, don’t do that. Remember what happened when you ate the peanut butter Blitzeria in one bite?” (He actually did do that once and practically choked on it. It was quite funny to watch.) Even though Rosalina kept saying no, Meadow just kept saying in Sol’s mind, “Do it. Just do it.”

After much persuasion from Meadow, Sol eventually did attempt to eat the muffin in one bite. In response to the sourness of it, Sol’s face instantly puckered and tears formed in his eyes. His face remained stuck like that for the rest of the dream. Was pretty impressive.

Dream Five

This dream was from Meadow’s perspective. All I remember is this short fragment, though I’m pretty sure plenty other things happened beforehand.

For whatever reason, Meadow was being chased by some cloaked woman with a halberd. Meadow was in his Umbra form and he was flying through the remains of a previously burnt down forest. As he was flying through the burnt, he was picking up dead trees with psychokinesis and hurling them back at the woman. She had no effect on her because she would just chop up the trees with her halberd.

The woman chased Meadow up the side of a nearby volcano. Meadow then tried to use his psychokinesis to drop large boulders on her. Even the boulders were somehow able to be cut apart by her halberd. Upon reaching the top of the mountain, Meadow tried to launch the woman off the mountain by unleashing a wave of psychokinetic energy. She even managed to cut the energy itself apart with her halberd.

At this point, Meadow was all out of ideas and had no where else to run. Luckily Rosalina just so happened to be looking for Meadow. She flew towards the mountain with her dragon wings. She quickly grabbed Meadow and flew off.

April 21, 2014

Dream One

This dream was from the perspective of some random unimportant person. We’ll just call him John. This was a medium dream.

The dream was set in a proper Walking Dead style apocalypse. John had his own small camp set up in the woods. He was inside his tent sorting through his equipment and supplies. He then heard shouting and gunfire somewhere close by. It was close enough that it was of a concern to him. He grabbed his pistol, kukri, and a small backpack and ran to where the noises came from.

John came out of the forest onto an open hill. He looked around at the environment. At the bottom of the hill was a field with a road running through it that led to a city on the left. In the distance there were mountains and more forests. John did a reality check and he became lucid.

John saw a small group of people standing at the bottom of the hill near the road. They were surrounded by dead zombie bodies, so they apparently solved the problem on their own. John was about to walk away and go back to his camp and leave the people be. They noticed John and called out to him. John couldn’t avoid them now, so he decided to meet them.

They seemed like decent enough people. They wanted to know if John had a camp and if they could stay there. For some reason John said no. However, he did say that he would help the group establish their own camp somewhere else. John pulled some electronic tablet thingy out of his backpack. He turned it on and it showed a satellite map of the local area. On the map, John found a site in the middle of the city where there was a mansion with plenty of land around it. The area appeared to be surrounded by brick walls. John decided they would try to set up a camp there and fortify it.

John and the group walked to the city together. Before going in there, the group insisted that they sneak past the zombies by pretending to be zombies. John didn’t like the idea, but had agreed to it anyways. The group moved slowly through the city, stumbling around and moaning like a zombie would. It worked to some extent, but one zombie became suspicious. It walked in front of John and stared at him. The zombie then smelled John and realized he wasn’t a zombie. The zombie lunged towards John, but John quickly chopped into the zombie’s head with his kukri.

At this point, all of the zombies realized that the group was human and became aggressive. John held his pistol in one hand and his kukri in the other. He fought off a number of zombies before one came from the side and pushed him to the ground. John was now trying to push away a zombie on top of him that wanted to rip out his throat with its teeth.

Then I woke up and I rolled over and did a DEILD...

Back in the same dream as before, John still had a zombie on top of him. John was losing the strength to push the zombie back. A man from the other survivor group then came by and hit the zombie in the head with a crowbar. He helped John onto his feet. The man then shattered a large glass window of a nearby store. He yelled for everyone to follow him and they all jumped through. They then ran into a back room and barricaded the door.

John told them that their zombie pretending plan was dumb and that they were going to try his plan now. John’s plan was to stick to the alleyways, move quickly, and kill any zombies that get in the way. John opened a door on the other side of the room that opened into an alley. They moved their way through the alleyways until they were across the street from the mansion they planned to set up camp at.

There were too many zombies in the street between the group and the mansion to fight through. John had an idea to solve that. He told the group to stay put and moved down to the end of the street. There was a car parked there. He smashed the window of the vehicle open with a brick. This set off the alarm. John reached into the car and shifted the gears to neutral. He then pushed the car enough so that it would start rolling down the street.

John ran back to the group and they waited for the zombies in the street to follow the sound of the car. The zombies soon cleared out and the group moved across the street, fighting off a few stragglers. Everyone threw their bags and equipment over the brick wall that surrounded the mansion. John helped everyone climb over the wall and then climbed over it himself.

The group then ran up to the mansion and tried to open the door. The door was locked, so the man with the crowbar pried it open. When they entered the house, they could hear a girl screaming and a bunch of crashing sounds from upstairs. A young girl was backing away from a zombie past the top of the stairs. The zombie grabbed onto the girl and forced her to the ground. John ran up the stairs and grabbed onto the zombie before it could hurt the girl. He pulled the zombie back and accidentally fell down the stairs with it.

I then woke up and couldn’t get back into the dream.

Dream Two

This dream was from Rosalina’s perspective. It was a medium dream.

Rosalina, Sol, and Meadow were enjoying a day at the beach together. It was a very popular beach and there were many people there. It was getting crowded there and some of the people were just getting really loud and obnoxious. The three of them moved over to a part of the beach where there were no other people.

Rosalina was sitting on the beach and watching the clouds while Sol and Meadow were off doing something in the ocean. Then all of a sudden Sol popped up in front of Rosalina. He showed her this weird hermit crab-like creature. He said that it could breathe in water from its mouth and exhale oxygen from the end of its cone shaped shell. Rosalina remembered seeing a creature very similar to this in a long ago dream. She did a reality check and became lucid.

Now that Rosalina was lucid, she had the urge to explore. She went into the water and found another one of those crab things. She put the end of the shell into her mouth so that she could breathe underwater. She then swam underwater and was having fun looking at the various plants, shells, and fish of the ocean.

She noticed what looked like an underwater cave nearby, which she became curious about. She motioned to Meadow (who was currently busy punching a shark) and Sol to follow her. They swam through the underwater tunnel and it led to a secret cave above the water. Rosalina climbed out of the water and into the cave. She released the crab back into the water and began walking through the cave.

Rosalina could hear people from the other side of the cave talking. She spied on them while hiding behind a nearby rock. They appeared to be a group of hobgoblins. They had a camp set up inside the cave and they talked of plans to destroy a nearby harbor with explosive devices. She then heard one of the hobgoblins say, “Hey, what’s that light doing over there?” Rosalina turned around and saw Sol and Meadow were behind her and that Sol’s hair was glowing brightly.

The three of them ran back into another part of the cave and hid there. The hobgoblins were now curious and searching for the source of the light throughout the cave system. “Why is your hair glowing?” Rosalina whispered to Sol. “Oh, it always does that in dark places. Pretty cool, huh?” he said. “Just shut up and turn it off,” Rosalina said. “Uhh, I don’t know how,” Sol said.

Rosalina figured they would have to find a way to cover up Sol’s light to avoid being capture. “Meadow, turn into an Umbra and cover up Sol’s head,” she said. Meadow did as he was told, but when he tried to cover Sol’s head, the magic light from Sol’s hair left these weird burns on Meadow’s shadow body. Meadow jumped back and rolled on the ground while shouting, “Ow ow ow.”

Rosalina then had a new idea. She grabbed Sol’s shirt and pulled it up over his head. The light still shined through it and it didn’t matter either way. By this point the hobgoblins had already figured out their location (partially due to Meadow’s shouting) and were heading their now. Rosalina had one final last resort idea to keep the hobgoblins away. She told Sol and Meadow to plug their ears. She faced the area that the hobgoblins would be coming from and unleashed a draconic roar. The roar was especially loud due to them being in a cave, and it caused many boulders to fall from the cave ceiling and block the hobgoblins path.

Possibly due to being exposed to the loudness of the roar, Rosalina became very disoriented. The dream destabilized and I woke up.

April 23, 2014

Dream One

This dream was from the perspective of Lucidis. It was a medium dream.

Lucidis was walking around outside at night, not too far outside Scillia city. He looked up at the night sky and gazed at all of the amazing celestial bodies. There were many bright and colorful stars along with great moons, planets, nebulae, and comets. Lucidis became lucid at the sight of this. It would be impossible not to.

Lucidis transformed into a dragon and flew up into the sky. He wanted to see how high he could get or see if he could even reach space. He managed to get to about as high as the clouds before he heard the sound of a dragon’s roar somewhere nearby. As much as Lucidis wanted to go to space, he felt obligated to stop and investigate the roar.

He followed the sound of the roaring to a nearby mountain where a dragon was circling around it. When Lucidis came close to the mountain, the dragon landed on top of it and waited for him. The dragon didn’t look like it wanted to fight, so Lucidis landed in front of the dragon and calmly approached it. They greeted each other and exchanged names, to which the dragon said was Sidrid. By roaring, he had called upon Lucidis to come to his aid. Sidrid said that he was an astral/aura dragon or something like that. He had the power to sense things.

Sidrid told a story of a dragon friend of his that died a long time ago who was very important to him. Some time after her death, humans found the skeleton of her body. They then put the dragon skeleton on display in the Scillia City Museum. Sidrid said that this disturbed him, but he chose to tolerate it because it wasn’t done with malicious intentions or causing harm to anyone. However, he could sense that something malicious was going to be done to her soon. He said that a necromancer intended to resurrect her as his undead minion. Sidrid feared what destruction the necromancer could cause with the skeleton dragon. He requested that Lucidis stop the necromancer and destroy the skeleton if he had to.

Lucidis agreed to do this task because he didn’t want Scillia City to get wrecked, but he also requested a favor. With the knowledge that Sidrid was an astral dragon, Lucidis wanted to know if Sidrid could take him to the astral plane and tell him his fortune. Sidrid agreed to this, but said that Lucidis already knew how to get to the astral plane. Lucidis was then hit with a flood of memories of all the times he used his elaborate portal teleportation technique. Apparently the “void”, as he called it before, was the astral plane.

Lucidis then decided that he was ready to go deal with the necromancer. He did not know where exactly the museum was however. He asked Sidrid where it was. An ethereal path extended from Sidrid and flowed down all the way into Scillia. Lucidis thanked Sidrid and immediately began flying along the path. The ethereal path led into the roof of the museum and created a small hole there. Lucidis dropped down through the hole and it closed back up as he landed inside the museum.

Lucidis walked into another part of the museum where he expected the dragon skeleton to be on display. In this room there were various exhibits for skeletons and fossils. There was a large empty exhibit in the middle of the room. There was a plaque next to this empty space that had many words pertaining to dragons. Lucidis realized that this was the space where the dragon skeleton should be, but it wasn’t there.

Lucidis heard a crashing sound behind him. He turned around and saw a very large dragon skeleton staring at him right in the face. There was an old man with a Gandalf beard riding on top. Lucidis assumed that this was the necromancer and dragon skeleton he was looking for. The necromancer seemed to think that Lucidis was a very interesting looking dragon. He talked to his undead minion about how great it would be kill Lucidis and add him to the collection.

The skeleton swiped at Lucidis with its claws. Lucidis dodged and flew up in the air. Lucidis flew directly at the necromancer to attack. The necromancer quickly jumped off the skeleton as its tail came around and struck Lucidis. Lucidis was knocked across the room and he crashed into a skeleton of some other creature. Lucidis picked up a bone of this creature that was rather sword like. He used this bone sword to parry and defend against the dragon’s further attacks.

The skeleton dragon stopped relying on physical attacks and started to use some kind of necro magic. It began breathing out this black death smoke and tried to fill the room with it. Lucidis avoided inhaling any of it and through the nearest door he could find. He closed the door and locked it. The room Lucidis had ran into was a small bathroom with just a toilet and a small window to the side. The skeleton dragon thrusted its claws through the door and nearly pierced Lucidis. They really wanted to get in and Lucidis really wanted to get out.

As the skeleton dragon was trying to break through the door and walls, Lucidis was trying to break through the window and escape. Lucidis had to bash the window open by ramming his head and horns into it. He then climbed out the window and flew up into the sky above the museum. When the skeleton dragon found out that Lucidis had escaped, it simply crashed through the roof of the museum and flew up to meet him. Lucidis didn’t want anything else in the city to get destroyed by the battle. He flew off as fast as he could back towards the mountain outside the city and incited the dragon to follow.

Lucidis then came face to face again with the skeleton dragon and the necromancer riding it. Suddenly Sidrid swooped down from the sky and tackled the skeleton. The necromancer fell off and landed in the forest below. Sidrid said that he would fight with “Magnia” and told Lucidis to go after the necromancer.

Lucidis followed through with the plan and dove down to the forest below. The old guy was surprisingly unaffected by the fall he just had. He wielded a scepter and pointed it at Lucidis. He cast that necro smoke spell at Lucidis, but Lucidis blew it away with a strong gust from his wings. Lucidis then charged at the necromancer head first. The necromancer blocked Lucidis’s headbutt with his scepter. As this happened, Lucidis swung his tail around behind the necromancer and knocked him off his feet. Lucidis then held the man to the ground and used some special dragon eye technique. This technique subdued the necromancer and caused him to pass out.

Now that the necromancer had been defeated, Lucidis planned to tie him up and bring him to the local authorities. Lucidis didn’t have any rope, so he searched the forest for some vine plants that were strong enough to tie him with. Lucidis did manage to find some vines. I woke up before anything could be done with them.

April 24, 2014

Dream One

This dream was from the perspective of Lucidis. It is a continuation of Dream One from April 23, 2014. This was a long dream.

Claire was apparently at the palace discussing a bunch of important stuff with the queen. Meanwhile, Lucidis, Chris, and Krystal were out taking a walk through Scillia Park. They were celebrating Krystal’s first day out of the hospital. Krystal was so happy to finally be outside and able to walk around again. The park was much like a garden and there were many strange and wonderful plants there. Lucidis payed much attention to the plants, which were strange and fascinating to them. They were strange enough that Lucidis felt the need to do a reality check. He did so and became lucid.

Lucidis then remembered the dream he had the day before. He remembered that he could go to the astral plane and have Sidrid tell him his fortune. Lucidis told Chris and Krystal the basic story about what happened yesterday. He asked them to help him journey through the astral plane and find Sidrid. They didn’t really have much of anything better to do, so they agreed to go with him.

Lucidis stood in an open area of the park and prepared to create an astral portal. It had been a long time since he created one. He formed an aura of sparkly astral energy around his hand and then made a straight swiping motion in front of him. Nothing happened. He repeated this several times and still nothing happened. “Maybe you need a void key,” Chris said. “No I don’t need a ‘void key’. I just need to remember how I did this before,” Lucidis said. “Try to focus more on cutting the fabric of space and use a crescent shape,” Krystal said. Lucidis decided to follow Krystal’s advice. He cut with a crescent shape and a portal opened.

Lucidis jumped into the portal. Chris and Krystal soon followed. All that Lucidis could see from there was darkness. There was nothing there, which is why Lucidis always referred to it as the void. Lucidis expressed disappointment in it just being emptiness again. He was about to suggest turning back, but then Krystal did something really weird.

Krystal was down on the floor (yes, the void has a floor) and she poked her head and arms down through it. It looked like the front half of her body had just disappeared. Chris then did the same thing as Krystal. Lucidis reluctantly followed their example. He got on the floor and stuck his head down through it. On the other side of the solid surface that he had been resting on, there was a liquid surface that his head was reaching through. They appeared to be at the edge of some kind of ocean, but a solid beach was within reach. They each grabbed onto the beach with their hands and pulled themselves up (down?) through.

“I don’t know what just happened, but it made me feel sick,” Chris said. Lucidis looked around. They were on a small island with a small dock. At the dock was a lone Umbra next to a single boat. “Hey, is that Steve over there?” Lucidis asked. Lucidis then ran over to the umbra and said, “Hey Steve, what are you doing here?” The Umbra then gave Lucidis a funny look and said, “Listen, I don’t know who you are or why you’re here, but I suggest you keep that name to yourself. That guy isn’t exactly respectable here.” “Alright then,” Lucidis said confused, “What do you know about a dragon named Sidrid?” “I know he said that if anyone asked for him, I should guide them to Magnia,” he said. “Okay, do that then,” Lucidis said.

The four of them entered the small boat and the Umbra guide began to row them across the astral sea. “The last time I was in a boat like this, it was just me, Chris, and a weasel,” Lucidis said. “Why was there a weasel?” Krystal asked. “He said that it was new Aranian law. All boats had to have a weasel to ward off dragons,” Lucidis said. “And did we ever see a dragon? No we did not,” Chris said in an attempt to validate his weasel. “Your weasel didn’t do anything. I’m a dragon and I was there the whole time,” Lucidis said. “You don’t count. You look like a human,” he said.

By the time their conversation was over, the boat had reached a harbor of the mainland. “Welcome to Ascernia. Now get out,” the Umbra said. Lucidis, Chris, and Krystal climbed onto the docks and the Umbra left with the boat. You would think that a harbor of this size would be full of activity, but there was no one in site. They walked over to the mainland where there were multiple paths going in different directions. There was a wooden signpost there at the intersection. It said that forward from where they were was Ceran City. The path to the right led to the Apex Mountain Range. The sign for the path on the left read, “Haylea Prairie”. Under that was another phrase written in pink crayon that read, “Maggie’s House”.

Lucidis figured that “Maggie’s House” referred to Magnia, so they chose the left path. The path led them to a prairie where a single small house existed all by itself. The house appeared to be built from cobblestone and had a wooden roof. It seemed kind of weird, but it also looked quite nice. Lucidis ran up the house and knocked on the door. The door popped open and Lucidis looked down to see a little girl had opened it. “Uh, hello. Do you know where Magnia is?” Lucidis asked her. “Yes, I am Magnia and I’ve been sitting here waiting for you to show up all day,” she said annoyed. “Whoa, what? I thought you were a dragon,” Lucidis said surprised. “I am and I an’t. This is my spirit form. Don’t try to think about it much or you’ll hurt your brain,” she said.

Magnia invited them inside her little house and they gathered around a fire pit in her living room. She had the three of them sit down and each collect a small bone from basket. She instructed them to throw their bones into the fire to have their future told.

Chris went first. He threw his bone into the fire and the bone formed a deep jagged crack. Magnia examined the bone and said, “Ouch. Looks like you’re going to die a horrible painful death. Well at least you’ll be happy when it happens. Next,” she said casually. “Wait, wait, wait. What the hell does that mean? I’m going to die horribly but be happy?” Chris asked. “Yup. Scary, huh?” she said.

Krystal threw her bone into the fire next. The bone cracked and formed a clean split down the middle. Magnia examined the bone and said, “Oh, it looks like you’re going to have another kid. Congratulations,” she said. Lucidis quickly interjected and said, “No, I already have two kids. That’s more than enough for me. I’m done with that.” “No one said they were going to be your kids,” Magnia said. Lucidis paused for a moment and said, “Okay, new topic,” and threw his bone into the fire.

Lucidis’s bone didn’t crack. Instead it became a very dark black shade. Magnia examined the bone and said, “Oh wow, you’ll be going into the Dark Median. Good luck with that.” “What’s the Dark Median?” Lucidis asked. “It’s the dark impassible region between Rhenora and Fayio. How have you not heard of this?” Krystal said. “I have heard of it, but it was from that guy,” Lucidis said pointing at Chris, “And I couldn’t understand a damn word of his incoherent rambling.” “I may have been a bit flustered that day,” Chris said quietly.

“So what can you tell me about the Dark Median, Maggie?” Lucidis asked. “Not much. It’s pretty mysterious,” she said. “Something happened a long time ago that caused part of the shadow realm to leak out and become intertwined with part of your realm. That area is now called the Dark Median. It’s like an abyss. Anything that goes in never comes back out.”

Now that story time was over and everyone had been disturbed enough for one day, Magnia wanted to have a tea party. Lucidis wasn’t exactly a fan of tea parties or tea itself, but he decided to humor her. The all sat down at a small table and drank from tiny tea cups. Soon there was a knocking at the door. Lucidis immediately took this opportunity to excuse himself from the tea party and answered the door.

Outside the door stood two Umbras. “So we heard you know about a certain Steve, right?” one Umbra asked in a passive aggressive voice. “Steve? What? No, I have never met a Steve in my life. You must have the wrong person. Thank you and goodbye,” Lucidis said quickly before closing and locking the door. “Is everything okay over there?” Krystal asked from across the room. “Uh, yeah, just more Steves,” he said nervously. The Umbras then started knocking louder on the door and shouted, “Open the door! We heard you say Steve!” Lucidis then shouted back, “No! I don’t want to die!”

The Umbras somehow managed to pick the lock on the door and they opened it up themselves. They knocked Lucidis to the ground and grabbed him by the feet. They began to drag him out the door and across the prairie. There wasn’t really anything Lucidis could do about it except scream and shout for Krystal’s help.

I woke up before Krystal’s help could arrive.

April 25, 2014

Dream One

This dream was from the perspective of Lucidis. It was a continuation of Dream One from April 24, 2014. It was a medium length dream.

So Krystal’s help never arrived. The Umbras had dragged Lucidis to Ceran City Hall. Some kind of council meeting was being held there and Lucidis was at the center of it. There must have been at least 50 Umbras there. It was kind of creepy.

A rather old looking Umbra (yes, Umbras can look old) approached Lucidis. “State your full name,” he said. “Is that actually important?” Lucidis asked. “No, but say it anyways,” he said. “Lucidis Herbert NiteLite,” Lucidis said. Lucidis then became lucid upon saying this name for obvious reasons. A few of the Umbras in the room laughed in response. “That’s a funny name,” the old one said cracking a smile. “Now tell us, what do you know of someone named Steve ShadowRaut?” he said seriously. “I don’t know a ShadowRaut, but I know a Steve ShadowCross,” Lucidis said. “Interesting. Tell us about this ShadowCross then,” the old one said.

By this point the Umbras had apparently captured Chris and Krystal. They carried them into the room and dropped them there on the floor. Lucidis waved to them and said, “Gather ‘round children! It’s story time!” Lucidis then proceeded to think about his many encounters with Steve. He told them about how Steve was a creature of pure chaos who would destroy everything in sight. Lucidis didn’t speak about that topic for too long though because he realized he was probably about to start a witch hunt for Steve. Lucidis then mentioned how Steve found love, became married, had a kid, and stopped making life miserable for everyone else.

After Lucidis finished his story, the old man asked him where Steve lived. “Why?” Lucidis asked. “We are going to bring him to justice. He must be punished,” he said. “Then I can’t tell you. Steve is a good guy now and all that stuff he did years ago doesn’t matter anymore,” Lucidis said. “You won’t be leaving until we extract the information from you,” he said. “You know, if we don’t get back to Scillia soon, Claire is going to be angry. She’s scarier than Steve and she’s going to come looking for us,” Lucidis said.

As if on cue, Claire kicked open the doors and walked in. She was visibly angry. She approached Chris, Krystal, and Lucidis while ignoring all of the Umbras in the room. “That was quick,” Lucidis said. “You should have just mentioned her like 5 minutes ago,” Chris said. Claire slapped Lucidis in the back of the head and shouted, “I told you guys to wait for me in the park and you’re screwing around with these things!” “They kidnapped me and they won’t let me leave!” Lucidis exclaimed. “How did you even get here?” Krystal asked Claire. “The queen gave me a void key. She requested the four of us to find and kill a Vexoreal Beast,” she said.

After Claire explained this, Lucidis noticed the Umbras were nodding and making gestures to each other, though they were not speaking. It seemed that they were communicating privately through telekinesis. Once they came to a conclusion, the old Umbra spoke to Lucidis again. “The Vexoreal Beasts typically stay in the swamps, but one of them wandered into the mountains. It is too dangerous to pass through now. If you defeat this creature, we will allow you to leave,” he said. “Yeah, sure, no problem,” Lucidis said. “To be sure that you will not step away from our deal, I will be sending Andrea with you,” he said. A female Umbra then walked up to Lucidis and entered his body. It was a very weird feeling and it made Lucidis wake up.

April 26, 2014

This dream was from the perspective of Lucidis. It was a continuation of Dream One from April 25, 2014. It was a medium length dream.

Lucidis, Chris, Claire and Krystal were now within the Apex Mountains. Andrea was also there, inside of Lucidis’s head, talking to him. She was guiding them through the mountains to the area the beast should be. You’d expect the mountains to be all snowy and stuff, but it seems to work a bit differently in the astral plane. There were these tiny luminescent spheres falling from the sky, leaving wisps of blue light behind them. They were quite pretty. They felt comfortably warm to the touch. These spheres of light would fade away and dissipate once they came into contact with something. It wasn’t Andrea’s voice in my head that made him lucid, but this strange astral snow.

They navigated through a narrow crevice before coming to an opening where stairs had been carved into the mountainside. They ascended the stairs to the top of the mountain. At the top was a shrine of sorts and various monuments to some people. There was a pond in the middle where fish swam. Standing within that pond was a very large quadrupedal badger-like creature. It’s body was covered in dark black fur. It had external bones growing in most places outside of its body that took the form of both spikes and armor plating. It had large sharp teeth and claws. This was the Vexoreal Beast. It basically looked sort of like this thing here: http://img3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb2...1/14_00020.png

The beast was preoccupied trying to fish in the pond. It managed to catch a fish and was about to eat it. When Lucidis saw this, Andrea shouted in his head, “No! Stop it!” In response, Lucidis ran forward towards the beast. It immediately dropped the fish and turned towards Lucidis. It stood back on its hind legs and swatted at Lucidis with a powerful force. Lucidis was knocked off the top of the mountain and fell down onto a lower ledge. “Look out!” Andrea shouted. Lucidis rolled onto his back and saw the beast run and jump off the cliff towards him. Lucidis quickly grew dragon scale armor on his forearm and defended against the incoming attack.

As the creature was slashing and gnashing at Lucidis’s dragon arm, Krystal jumped off the cliff and onto the creature’s back. She wielded a crystal sword and attempted to stab the creature with it. The creature stepped backwards off of Lucidis and flung Krystal back into the side of the cliff. Lucidis took this opportunity to fully transform into a dragon. The beast charged at Lucidis and Lucidis charged at the beast headfirst. They bashed heads together and the bone armor around the beast’s head shattered. This dazed Lucidis, but the beast was still ready to make another attack. It lifted it’s arm to make another strike, but Claire used her whip to grip its arm from behind. As Claire held it there, Chris shot at the beast with his repeating crossbow. One of the bolts pierced its eye. This did not kill the creature, but it sent it into a rage.

The beast somehow detached the external bones from its body and launched them outward at a high speed. One of the bones released it from Claire’s whip and hit Claire. Andrea shouted, “Dodge left!” and Lucidis moved to the left to dodge a bone. Once again, the creature came charging at Lucidis for another attack. “Dodge right!” Andrea said. Lucidis moved to the right and then gripped the beast by the hands/paws. Lucidis held it there while Krystal came up from behind and stabbed it in the back with the crystal sword. The beast’s essence was then channeled through the sword and into a small gem. Krystal sealed the beast’s essence inside this gem and it was captured.

After making sure everyone was okay, Lucidis’s thoughts returned to the shrine that they had protected. “So what is that shrine place all about? It seemed important to you,” Lucidis said in his head to Andrea. “Oh, it’s a great story, but I’ll tell you another time,” she said. “Why not now?” Lucidis asked. “You are about to wake up,” she said. After she said that, the dream started to destabilize and get all blurry and stuff. “No, I’m not,” Lucidis said to her. “It’s happening right now,” she said. Despite his best efforts, Lucidis woke up anyways.

April 28, 2014

This dream was from the perspective of Lucidis.

Lucidis, Chris, and Krystal were walking down a street in Ceran City. Once again, Claire was away. She was having another meeting with the queen of Ariala. She had sent Chris off to get a map and Krystal and Lucidis went with him. They either somehow made it this far in their travels without the use of a map or they simply needed a more specialized map for whatever reason. That was Chris’s business to take care of. When Lucidis realized they were going to be looking at maps, he remembered that he had made it a task to find a map of Ethos. He did a reality check and became lucid.

Knowing that he would soon see a map of Ethos made Lucidis excited. He ran forward ahead of Chris and Krystal to go find the map shop. He didn’t go very far before realizing he had no idea where it was. He ran back to Chris and Krystal and saw them walk into a building. Lucidis stopped in front of the building and read the sign above it that said, “Cari’s Ceran City Cartography Cartel”. Realizing that this place had maps, Lucidis ran inside and looked around. It was a small shop, but there was a wide assortment of maps on display. Some appeared to be for navigation while others were for artistic appeal. Chris was busy talking to some dude with an eye patch in the corner of the room while Krystal was browsing the atlases on a shelf.

Lucidis walked up to a woman who was sitting behind a counter. He assumed this was Cari. “Hello. Do you need help with anything?” she asked. “Um, yeah, I just have three questions,” Lucidis said. “Go ahead then,” she said. “Cartel?” Lucidis asked. “Oh, don’t mind that. It’s just some silly word play,” she said. “Okay, what about the guy with the eyepatch?” he asked. “What about him?” she said, feeling kind of indignant. “Nothing. Was just curious about who he was,” he said defensively. “That’s my husband, Atlas. He lost his eye when he was attacked by a creature on one of his many expeditions. We think it makes him look like a pirate, so it’s part of the cartel joke,” she said. “If it’s a joke then why did you get mad at me when I brought it up?!” Lucidis exclaimed. “I wanted to play with you. Also, that counts as a question,” she said. “Fourth question then. Do you have a map of Ethos I can look at?” he asked. “Sure do,” she said.

Cari opened a chest in the corner of the room that was full of scrolls. She pulled one out and layed it flat across the counter. Lucidis looked at the map and studied it for a good while. This is a vague representation of what he saw: http://i.imgur.com/F5vc1Br.png

Lucidis showed the map to Krystal. “Look at all the places we could explore!” he said. “As far as we know, Rhenora is the only one that exists,” she said. “Nah, I’m pretty sure these places are there,” he said. “No one has ever journeyed to these other lands. This map is built upon ancient myths and legends,” she said. “I’m pretty sure every legend we have encountered so far has turned out to be true,” Lucidis said. “Well you can go see for yourself someday,” she said.

Lucidis returned to looking has his map again. He stared at it and analyzed it once again. He then forced himself to wake up so that it would remain in his immediate memory.

When I made this account I was into LDs and writing my dreams down. I ended up forgetting about it. These are just some of the dreams that I found hidden in my old books, there's another one that I really wanted, but I can't find it. There are 10 in total.

May 24, 2018

I'm in some kind of cavern, the walls are rock and dirt. There are these sentries like robots scattered around the area. I'm not sure what they do, so I don’t hide just yet, when one spots me, it's blue light turns red and it shoots this laser. I duck behind a rock, it makes a blackened mark on the wall behind me. Now warier, I make my way to my left, going up to a wall, it has a ladder on it, I climb it quickly, as I reach the top a sentry sees me, I jump behind another rock before it can fire. Gazing around, I noticed that the ceiling had tons of pipes and wires hugging it. There were also more sentries around me. Two were right below me, at least four somewhere in front of those, another four or so to my left. I didn't know what to do. As I stayed behind that rock, I saw someone, they had a weapon in their hand, wearing all black, I can't really remember his skin, but his hair was also black. He is breaking all the sentries, going for each one, dodging their lasers. I watch as he breaks one of the ones below me. The other laser powers up.

"There's another one!" I yell to him, pointing at the one below me, he stares at me for a moment before smashing the next one.

His name is Nathaniel, Nathan for short. We stay together and try find a way out. I'm not sure what happened entirely. This is one of the first dreams, it could even be from yesterday. All I know is that his arms were around me, holding me, I can feel his heartbeat under my hands. It's so peaceful holding him. I even woke up saying his name.

There was a storm dream, had a boat, but it's boring.

I was standing in Lionel and Megan's yard. There was no house behind me however, no roads. Just fields. The sky was cloudy, and it was very windy, the clouds seemed to be forming funnels. I sighed and looked around, trying not to think about the impending doom. I honestly didn't feel like being in a tornado at that moment. There were two others with me, one was I-Pin from KHR, and the other might have been Katanna. I went up to I-Pin and asked her if I can see Nathan again. She seemed hesitant, I asked again, and she took my hand. Leading me to a box. I thanked her and went in. The box took me back to the cave. This time without the sentries. I stared at it for a moment, seeing no sign of Nathan, I sat down. It took a few seconds before he came out of the box. I jumped up and yelled his name. He looked up at me. I smiled and tackled him, hugging him.

We stayed together most of the time. I asked him if he was mad at me, about what, I'm not sure. I was in a hospital in one of my other dreams, cleaning blood off walls. We were in this room, it had a hospital bed in it, he was laying on it while I was looking through something.

"I can see the real you... you look beautiful." I froze and turned to him.

"Sure..." To me, being who I really am in my dreams, it's different, how I want to see myself and what I really look like... it's weird. I want to be who I really am, or at least resemble my dream self. It's hard... but it was reassuring. In my mind, who would want someone like me? A big woman who acts like a child half the time. I know I need to change, need to let go of my past, but, I just can't seem to let it go. Parts of my past haunt me, and it hurts. It hurts so much. Nathan saying he wanted me... it's weird, and I'm not sure how to feel about it.

Feb 7, 2018

Just had a weirdo dream, Dana and I were outside, she was looking for someone, I was making fun of her for it, I followed her near the old house, standing atop a large snow hill. Suddenly, I fell into the snow, I screamed for her help, telling her that I was sorry and I loved her lol. I dug my way out the side, as I came through gasping for air, I felt the snow atop me starting to weigh down on me. I screamed for Dana again, digging myself out, I ran towards her. Freaked out, the two of us grab this rope and run. I feel the rope tighten around my ankle, looking back to the old house, I see two guys holding onto it, they were ghosts. I try get the dogs to attack them for some reason, soon we were screaming and trying to escape. I see another face floating in front of us, Dana is scared of it, but I recognized it.

“GRIM!” I screamed out, he had his arms crossed and was staring at the two holding us captive. I scream for him, he glances my way and tells me to go. Dana and I ran into the house where it was safe. When the door was closed behind me, I saw a dog covered in green and red markings, kinda looked like kanji. I talked to grandpa, he had this chocolate spray thing? He sprayed paper and told me to ask Ducky about why they were following me. I had also commented to Dana that Grim never used to look like that. My own thoughts were that he was killing himself staying here protecting me… All in all, it was an odd dream.

Nov 24, 2017

Some ugly ass clown thing was dragging me the the stairs on Sonia's, I was calling out for my dad or Aunty. I got to the middle part by the door, I was starting to get desperate, by using Jesus Christ's name, I was able to weaken it in order to stand up. The thing rushed at me, trying to bite me. I managed to use my hands to keep it away, I can feel it's ugly teeth on my fingers. I somehow managed to kick it down the stairs and run up the rest, laying myself between Sonia and another person, who for the most part, I assumed was my dad. I begged her to pray with me, for some reason or another, she refused. Though I know the the real one would in a heartbeat. Anyway, I hid by her like a baby, even going under the blanket for a moment. I looked up by the TV and seemed to see it again, only it was just a book. I think that's what made her not want to pray? She thought it was because I was watching scary movies?

"Maybe I'll just wake up Jace for the hell of it." As I said that I looked to the other person beside me. He was already awake. He asked me what was wrong. I told him about said ugly clown.

"It was just a dream, if it wasn't my fingers would be bloody!" I had laughed it off showing him my hands, his face was serious though, he jumped up and grabbed his sword before going to the other room, presumably to talk to the other shadow hunters. He then went down the stairs. I couldn't fall back asleep, so I got up and got a drink of sprite. According the the light from the door, it was around morning. Jace came back up the stairs, my sprite was now Pepsi, he stood by the door, I was at the top.

"I need you to lure it out, it seems connected to you." I blanched.

"Absolutely not! Are you crazy!?" The guy seemed silly for a moment, seemingly to try lighten the mood.

"Would you rather I do it while you're awake, or have it come for you when your asleep?" I scowled at him. He held up three of his fingers, I shook my head no, he held up another three, again I said no. Soon I woke up. Still kind of shook from that dream tbh. At least Jace was hot, kind of a mix between the movie and Netflix version, more of the way I pictured him in my mind. I think there was more to this, I barely remember, but there was a dead baby, I said it was dead in the dream but it was clearly alive? Idk but I covered it up, and told it that it can uncover its face when I fell asleep, something happened and then I ran upstairs triggering above.

Jan 5, 2017

This dream was a while back.

The dream took place in a swamp like area, it had burnt and broken buildings littered around it. It also had small bodies of water that looked like they were filled with blood. Lilly pads were scattered all around in the water, and trees were everywhere.

I remember being there before, but I knew for a fact that I had died last time. I remember the broken, roofless house, the house I had died in. I avoided it. Lots of people were scattered about, attending some type of party. Everything soon went to hell. Instead of being in the house and dying instantly, I was by some monster trucks this time. I climbed on and told the two in it to drive. A vampire jumped into it with us, as the truck was like a convertible, it had no roof. The vampire tried to kill us, I ended up knocking it down, or maybe one of the others did. Suddenly there are two werewolves, one with strawberry blond mane and the other jet black.

They started fighting the vampire, it ended up hurting the lighter one, and was about to hurt the darker one. Without thinking, I jumped off the truck and killed it, as if them. I felt a connection the the darker one.

They transformed into humans and I helped them into the truck. If we could make it down the road, we would reach a military base where we would be safe. More vampires came, I ended up jumping off and distracting them while the other two escaped. I was going to die... again. I ended up realizing I was dreaming, becoming semi-lucid. Wanting to see where they went, I flew after them.

I got into the truck as we began to approach the base. I’m not lucid anymore, as I only wanted a different ending. The military guys say on of us is infected, that if we don’t get rid of him, they will shoot us all. I knew it was the light haired wolf. Who for some reason had black hair as a human. He reminded me of Alec, from the Mortal Instruments.

I told the other wolf, Alex, we had to throw him off. He didn’t want to. Alex and Alec were like brothers. In the end Alex listened to me, and tossed the in-pain-dying boy off the edge. He was about to throw his ring with him, I stopped him and caught it.

“Don’t.” He asked me why. I told him it was the only thing he had left of Alec, funny thing was, it was sliver.

So, after we entered, we ended up in a mall like place. It had the layout of my school for some reason. I wore the ring on my left thumb, since it was to big for my other fingers.

We settled in, in order for Alex to control and keep his co diction from others, he took special pills. The people somehow found out and tried staging something in my bathroom. Alex and I were signing papers to get a bigger house, when I needed the bathroom. I ended up running back to my apartment, I ran past some guy in a white hazmat suit.

“I need to pee!!” When I entered, there were two guys in there. One was switching Alex’s pills, and the other was placing something into the toilet. I ended up asking what they were doing. They told me that Alex did this and that they had to arrest him. I argued that he couldn’t have done it as he was with me the whole day. I threw a fit and ran, pulling a fire alarm on my way out. I ran through a class room, telling them it was a false alarm as I ran, an announcement was made over the intercom telling them about it.

Alex joined me outside, he was concerned. At this point I realized I was in love with him. I told him about the hazmat guys, then we left.

He was running in wolf form while I flew through the air. I saw blue fairies trapped in bubbles, so I freed them. I also had the great fairy mask from MM for some reason.

Alex and I went to this boat thing, we were fighting to get through men trying to capture us. I used the fire ball jutsu from Naruto, along with some earth jutsu.

We got into a sunken ship tying to escape, turns out they wanted us there. Once inside I noticed that guys were hiding on the sides, before I can warn Alex, they shot us with tranquilizers.

I could feel it shutting down my system, fighting it, I dragged myself into a platform. After regaining my breath, I turned to Alex. One of the men had him, had swam up behind him. I jumped back into the water to try save him. I was to late. The man had broken Alex’s neck. I dragged Alex through the water to the platform, trying in vain to wake him up.

I snapped

Turning into a being filled with rage and power, I killed everyone on that ship. A tattered black cloak covered my body, a blank white mask hid my face, twin scythes held in my hands, drenched in the blood of my enemies.

Alex ended up being alive in the end.

Later on I was in a mall with my sister. But in bras and pants. The cashier said something, Tia told him not to anger me, reminding him of what I was. She wasn’t afraid of me, just people setting me off. After that he said I can take anything for free. I saw a blank mask on the wall, it reminded me.

“I am the symbol of fear.” The blank white mask, no holes, just a smooth mask.

I was set off again and killed more people.

In the end, Alex still loved me, and I killed a bunch of people.

Oct 4, 2016

The top of the school was somehow flooded, ever evacuated the school and all sat in the front in the parking lot. My sweater was in front of me on the ground, I was wearing jeans and a grey shirt. At my sides were people, they each talked to the people around them. On my right was Robert, or Robbie as people call him, and on my left was Tanner, though I didn't know his name at the time. I couldn't see the person in front of me or behind me. Everyone saw a semi-truck drive by, it had a picture painted on its side of a pinup girl, I think her name was cookie or something, from a TV show I had watched the other day. I was getting cold, so I got up and went to my car to grab m sister's DIO sweater. I put it on and got in the car. Connie was driving the car, as I didn't like driving in the city. I went home.


--------------------

April 29, 2016

There was this swarm thing. Sean and I were in a truck, driving down the dump road, we ended up hitting a broken car. In the car were 4 kids, they were alright thankfully. We ended up getting onto a four-wheeler and taking the kids home with us. At this point I realized my powers were not working.

Sean and I walked around the house, looking for things that could help us. I went back into the house and asked about the kids, they told be they were gone. Taking my broken Ipod, I rummaged through other electronics, I ended up building some type of sensor thing, this is how we found out about the swarm.

Gathering weapons, we went to find the children, they showed up on the radar, then the swarm swallowed them whole. We ran to the area and saw it. There were thousands of bugs, they ended up attacking us, I tried to shoot them away, but remembered my powers didn't work. I was stung by the insect like beings. We ran away.

Somehow I ended up singing 1000 words, it awakened my powers, using fire, I rid of the swarm. I woke up.

--------------------

Aug 3, 2016

I was in this apocalyptic world, zombies were everywhere, I might have even been one. Then this guy shows up, dragging me along with him through some kind of adventure, I wasn't even aware, I could see things passing by me, but I couldn't really think, I was just a mindless zombie.

The man's name was Terry, he had long dark hair tied in a low pony-tail, dark coloured eyes, and was taller than me.

He spoke to me about dreams, showed me ways to control them, yet none of them stuck. I couldn't understand. By the time I became lucid, I was close to waking up. He refused to answer anything I asked him, just smiled at me and left. I was at this modern like house, there was a rock near it, I sat on it as it lifted me away, showing suck a vividly beautiful scenery, birch trees scattered everywhere, a beautiful blue lake, and tons of field all around, nothing touched by the greedy hands of humanity.


----------------------

? 2016

The setting is a modern like Sandy Bay, the Arena is now an apartment building/school. I lived in it with my husband, I was pregnant, I wasn't big, I just knew I was pregnant.

I walked around the building, laughing as I peaked into classrooms. I ended up walking across the street, trying to find one of my classmates. Unable to find him, I went back to the other building. For the hell of it, I began kicking in classroom doors and running from the scene. I knew I was dreaming, becoming semi-lucid. I would become invisible and mess with the Dcs. I could hear my footsteps echoing off the floor and walls, I was wearing heels. A teacher ended up chasing me around, catching me in a dead end. I grabbed a remote, it controlled a water gun attached to the ceiling. I sprayed her with it, she screamed and ran away.

I went back to my room laughing, my husband got back after me and asked what I found funny. I told him I was trolling people, he did not find it amusing. At this point I remembered my last dream, the one with Terry. I asked my husband if he knew Terry and where I would be able to find him. All he did was smile and tell me that he knew. All of a sudden, his mood changed, he was glared at me and turned away, telling me harshly that I had to find Terry on my own. I got mad and yelled at him, he ignored me. We were then in a restaurant full of people. I asked again, he turned to me and screamed.

“FIND HIM YOURSELF!” I yelled back at him, becoming angrier with each second, the volume in the restaurant began increasing, my head began pounding.

“EVERYBODY SHUT UP!” They all turned and stared at me in shock, I began to walk to the door, shoving my way past my husband. I kicked the door down and walked out onto the street, the restaurant I was in was now a bus. I was standing in the street, I was so angry. My husband came to the door and began to yell to me, I couldn't hear him. A nice silver/white car came driving down fast, the driver looked shocked and tried to slam the breaks.

It was to late.

I raised my leg and slammed my foot down on the hood of the car, stopping it in place and making it fly over my head. I grabbed it and threw it into more cars. Glass flew everywhere, I could feel it brushing my skin every now and then.

I rolled to the side of the street, avoiding even more carnage, wiping any glass off my arms. I could feel it as I brushed it away. I changed the cars into trains and began throwing them around.

A loud noise was heard above me, this transformer like thing fell from the sky. I ran from it, jumping from roof top to roof top. I was the corn plant from Garden Warfare 2, I shot it with corn as I ran. I ended up on a mountain, becoming myself. I sat there and looked down at the devastation that I had caused. I could hear the transformer seal thing getting closer. I closed my eyes and laughed bitterly, waking myself up in the process.

----------------------------

? 22, 2016

All I remember is being in the bathroom, trying to get water, but the tap didn't work. I heard something, turning to the noise, I saw this black portal thing, a dark hand began to reach out from it. I froze for a moment before backing away. The hand kept on reaching out, stopping at the shoulder. I began screaming and crying, my dad ran into the bathroom to ask what was going on. I just pointed at the wall sobbing. The words stuck with me.

“It found me! Help me it's coming!”

Dad couldn't see it, the hand just kept trying to grab me. I woke up soon after.

? 2016

Harley Quinn had a Joker baby, we somehow ended up killing the Joker and sealing his soul in a painting. Once Harley was gone, the Joker went crazy, shouting that no one would be able to hold him, he managed to escape and kill one of the crew members.

I was on a ship with three others, each one controlled a part of the ship, it would only ever move when everyone used their control console. Each had their own cabin. I felt something off, I left my room to go check on the control centre. I saw the occupant be killed by the ghost of the Joker.

Screaming, I ran out to go inform the others. The joker chased us, killing another in the process. Turning all the thrusters on, we managed to expel him off the spacecraft with the help of a Sealers ghost.

As we continued on towards our destination, the Joker managed to posses a ball, the forge ball from Halo 3, he chased after us and attacked our ship. I took control and led us to a highly advanced planet. The orb was obliterated by their defence system.

We landed, once we were out of the ship, we were told to remove all weaponry, complying with their rules, I removed the giant gun I was holding, rangers, a spaz 12, assault rifle, and a sword + more. Elsa took out less than me. She was disgusted by the creatures, I calmed her down. I spoke their language fluently, I remember his deep voice saying, “You speak our language beautifully.”

He led us around, we were finally able to relax. We went to these indoor hot-springs, Elsa and I went into the female only part. Elsa was complaining about something, I ignored her. I told her there was a unisex side, she took off to go to it.

I saw from Elsa's point of view, she went to the unisex side, only to be repulsed by the creatures that inhabited it. She left, only to bump into an alien who looked like her, she went back to the other side.


I then saw from under the floor, I saw the two above me bump into each other, though I couldn't tell them apart. I swam up to them, breaking through the ice floor and swallowing one whole. I was some alligator type thing. I was the Joker.

My vision switched back to myself, the walls fell away as people began to scream and run, the Joker came for us, using his tail to cut the people in his way. A princely looking man tried to help us, only to be paralyzed by the poison on the tail. The alligator dug a hole and dropped us into it.

The paralyzing agent made us drool severely, I opened my mouth and let it all out, the other two copied me, soon enough we were able to move, I knew the Joker would come back to eat us. I began to dig a hole. The dream ended, but I somehow knew what would happen next.

I would dig a hole all the way to my ship, the three follow behind me, they want to escape, but I wanted to fight. I grabbed my weapons.

“If we don't stop him, no one will!” I knew that type of space gator, only certain weapons would be able to harm it. I picked up my giant gun, which looked like an M60.

Once we killed the Joker, the defense system would take out his soul.

--------------

Yeah, these are just the ones I was able to find.

The one dream entry I can't find is about a guy, his name was Mr. Gravis, or along those lines, I think I even put Garris, I confused his name anyway. He acted odd, telling me that I was dreaming, startling me, getting me to kiss him, holding dream secrets over me. Overall, he was different than other DCs.

A painfully sharp situation

I remember trying to walk down the stairs in the extremely dirty house. We were supposed to move out so there were things all over the place. Tables, shelves and even on the floor. It was hard to get to the kitchen but I managed and started to search for my sewing kit. When I found it I accidently dropped the plastic thing that had all the needles so them fell to the floor. I tried to pick them up but noticed that my hand was starting to hurt. As I stared at it I could see all these needles going trough my skin. I must had at least twenty that pierced my hand and fingers. I’m terrified of needles so I tried to stay calm and pick them out one by one. It hurt soooo much when I did it and kind of wanted to give up since it was so frickin’ painful! I kid you not, I wanted to scream, cry and die because the pain was so intense.
When I managed to get them all out and just doing my best to cope with it, Jay from iKON runs in with a bowling ball. He was all excited and told me with a shy smile that he really wanted to play. I glanced at him like: YOU GOT TO BE KIDDING ME… ;___;
But I agreed and was just right behind him when the dream kind of faded away…




Note: When I woke up I thought the pain would contuine or at least give me an explanation of the pain but my hand was feeling alright. Confusing, huh?

Oct 4 2018

Forgot abt. 3 which initly remembered, one was funny
Awoke 4:24
Walmart dream, with family (mine?) and little kids (cousins?), I'm searching for a wooden dowel/rod/block combo to hang something (for some reason can't just nail it to wall), looking on wrong aisle. Find right section and there are dowels with multi-colored clipboard rubber clamps, talk to fake dad
Buying stuff for the weekend, then not because ere are dowels with realized F not working
Crawling on ground, I'm avoidant then aggressive towards bees, crawl through G and other (they're talking - init'ly paid attention to what about)
Crawl & stand up, slight but fluid transition, in strip mall entrance w 30ish people, enter (door holding) they're nerdy, it's like a fitness center, black circle yoga/D&D combo - oh no, I forgot my socks! See Coran and L.L., talk about band & scars & fb, laughing
FA/TrEy., Carving into dresser, R.H. - didn't feel dreamlike, mote like vivid interactive visualization

The dream starts out with a scenario very much like the waking one I must have just left: having trouble getting to sleep. I’m initially on a thin mat on the floor of a room in a house, in a sleeping bag, but I give up and move the sleeping bag to the couch, where I do finally manage to fall asleep.

The dream I subsequently find myself in is a lucid one. It went on for long enough to where entire segments of it have faded from memory, and I’m no longer entirely sure whether I have the order of the things right. But here goes.

The earliest parts, probably, were of flying over a city at night. I’m just looking around, observing my surroundings. I spot a brightly lit area—tennis courts—and fly down. But as I’m getting close, the lights suddenly turn off, leaving me in the dark. I imagine my wings—which I’ve been doing without until now—and use them to propel myself up from just above the ground. But not long after that, I figure that it might be better to walk—there are people I’m looking for here, and it might be easier to find them down there. So I land and continue going that way.

This city seems to be a modern one, and the area I'm in is well lit. To my right, I spot a large building that looks like a hotel, and further on is another one. No people around, though. I pause to examine some graffiti carved into the gray paint of a metal pillar, possibly supporting an overpass. Most of it is illegible scribbles, but I distinctly read the name “Joseph”.

Nobody else seems to be walking around. I do eventually spot some people (specifically, four guys and a ferret) through the glass-walled corner of a building and have a brief conversation with them, but it seems to cut off partway through, and I find myself as a disembodied point of view, looking at a bunch of grapes. They’re hanging on a vine that’s grown around a tree in a forest. I remember reading something on Dreamviews about being able to play with the perspective of visual imagery—and there’s no way in hell I’m going to be able to visualize that well while awake, so I figure I’ll try it now. I find I can change the angle just by intending to, can zoom in and have a closer look. Even close, it looks incredibly realistic.

But before I can get even closer, there’s another transition, and I find myself in a house. I’m near a large window—I can’t see anything outside since it’s light inside and dark outside, and it just looks black, but I figure I’ll jump through it and see what happens.

I jump straight through the glass as if it wasn’t there and find that what I saw before was actually accurate—there really is nothing here but featureless darkness. I don’t even seem to have a body anymore. I consider the situation. I’m not worried about waking up: I recall that I spent quite a while lying awake before this—having correctly remembered my waking life circumstances rather than mistaking the dream I fell asleep in for real, which isn't always what happens in these situations—and so I’ll still be catching up on sleep.

The idea occurs to me to sing a song, one I remember singing in choir when I was a kid. I then think that it’s kind of a silly song—why would I want to do that? But no, it’s better to go with my first thought. It’s probably the right one—it’s better not to second-guess this kind of thing. And so I sing it there.

Long ago, in a far off land,
Lived a child who loved to sing.
She opens up her fragile heart,
And the song, it takes wing…

Although it’s not exactly like I’m singing it, since I still seem to be somewhat disembodied. I’m surprised by how good my voice sounds here, though. It resonates in a way I wasn’t expecting in a space that appears to be a complete void.

At some point after that, after some unknown transition, I seem to be in the same house as before, just looking around. It has multiple floors, and above one staircase, I find what appears to be a clock playing a waltz-like melody. It sounds a bit like a calliope.

As I listen, it occurs to me to try another experiment. I clear my mind, getting everything else out of the way, then wordlessly sing, improvising a melody that might come after what I've already heard. And I find that what I'm singing exactly matches the tune the calliope clock is playing. It's as if, one way or another, we’re drawing from the same source, which is fascinating. So it is just me after all.

There’s quite a bit that happened after that, most of it involving the man who lived in the house—but, unfortunately, I can only remember the very end, as he was walking out. Shortly after that, I wake up.

(3.10.18)

I'm walking through some small stores. I kneel down to a box with old coins and start picking them up to take a closer look. My vision is a bit foggy, but i can tell these are not really coins, no matter how much I want them to be. just some medallions or commemorative tokens. An older lady starts going through it as well and crowds me out. I tell her piece of my mind.

I start feeling tension in the air as I'm walking towards the corner of a near building. People running. I know the occupation is starting. I think it's nazis, but the armored vehicle I see doesn't look german from WW2. I see the uniforms as I'm ducking in a doorway to get away through some back doors I'm hoping to find.

I see some civilian man walking inside. One is quite large. I know those are local collaborators, but to my surprise, they are quite gentle, as the big man pushes a woman towards the door with what I think it's croatian hajde.

Created Wednesday 03 October 2018

Got a decent LD to note (finally), along with some fragments.

Scrap Group 1
On a random (text-only) Discord channel. A woman geneticist complained about her domestic life, especially when it came to not having any children of her own. She admitted being so distraught by this, that she'd cloned her dead father, then adopted him. A major scandal ensued.

Watching Adventure Time with my nephew. Princess Bubblegum had illegitimately acquired a magical artifact. This made her the target of a bipedal cat. Finn and Jake arrived to her aid. Chase sequence in a small room. As this occurred, a suspicious wolf detective was observing their moves while sipping tea. The cat gets captured, upon which Finn and co. relieve a small red journal from its person. The wolf finally confronted the group, demanding they hand over the booklet. Suddenly, the journal vanished.

"Semi-lucid" (wasn't aware, but I unconsciously knew I was dreaming) in the void. I prance about in the darkness.

Dream 1 - Pit Descent, Cloud Ascent

Scene 1 - Down The Large Well
WILD transition straight to the void. Like above, I take a moment to celebrate before I actually compose myself. After flying around for a bit, I find a sizable round cobblestone enclosure, a deep pit in its center. Kinda like an old well, but much larger. Also, I noticed my wearing the clothes I had on in Monday afternoon. Anyway, I fell down the hole, and waited out a transition, rubbing my hands for good measure.

Scene 2 - Broom Ride Cloud Loop
The visuals were a bit dim. I was floating over a mountainous badlands, a soft yellow dusk sky above. Spent a good minute sightseeing, when a dust storm approached from the east. So, I plowed right through.

When the weather cleared, I found myself flying over a lifeless desert, pyramid in view ahead, and thick clouds covering much of the twilight sky. I dash up into a nimbus, which then reminded me of the like TOTM. I glanced down, and, as expected, found myself seated cross-legged on an old straw broom. Onwards I went, before finally getting to clear sky.

Things looked a bit brighter. There didn't seem to be much else, just clouds below, and silver blue skies in the horizon. I looked up, only to find another set of clouds about a mile above. So, I charged through that as well, but, found myself arriving at a similar place. I took off once more, only now, I had a lot of trouble breathing through the clouds' heavy vapors. Things destabilized. I could barely make it to the top, when the dream collapsed.

Scrap Group 2
False awakening in an unknown home. I was late for school (not a concern nowadays), so I skipped showering. Cut to the school's courtyard. I'm flying around, racing to the cafeteria in hopes of making it in time for breakfast.

November ToTM (Task of the Month) and Jack the Giant Killer ToTY 2018 (Task of the Year) Combined
~ Dream #1 ~
100% Lucidity

Approximate Real Life Time: Around 10 minutes
Approximate Dream Time: About one hour

Dream: A chilled, steel blade felt cold on my back. I had no scabbard to hold the sword, so it was strapped to a belt on my back. I felt the ice cold around me, cold enough to feel warm. The moonlight was glowing, and the stars shining. A clear night with a few small clouds in between. The place smelled of cold clean ice, and torches illuminated the area of a nearby town. I walked to the town and a group of people were gathered together in the middle of the night. I asked how I can help them, and they spoke of a large giant that comes out every month to take their gold. However they didn't have any gold, so the giant took one of their families every time he came. Stomping, crushing, and destroying entire houses with families inside. So many people scared for their lives, stayed outside when the time is near at the end of each month. The giant with brown cloths was coming towards the village. I slashed my sword upwards, also bringing my body higher. I was heading towards the giant, and I had to be quick so that the villagers would be safe. The giant grabbed my entire body, so I was unable to move. I struggled to move out of his tremendous grip. I pulled myself out, and I launched foward towards the giant's heart and pierced it with my steel blade. I held on tightly. The giant started to slowly fall to the ground, and it was over. I was triumphant in my task. I whipped up a broom and flew back towards the village. The breeze was chilled, and I had my eyes closed most of the time on the flight back. But snow started to fall, and it was beautiful. I eventually reached the village, and everyone was wondering what has happened to the giant. I told them that I have defeated the giant and they do not have to worry about it anymore. One woman came up to me, and offered her gold coin to me as a reward. I said, "No thanks, I do not need your money." I took out a small bag with gold coins that I've taken from the giant earlier, and I gave it to the villagers. I smiled as I went on my way to the mountains.

Extra: I started off in an area very famailar to me. It was the video game Overwatch, and the area seemed like the map called Nepal Village. I didn't notice this until I woke up after the dream ended.

Non-dream stuff - woke up at about 9:00, remembering one long(ish) non-lucid dream. Some details lost.

---

Sequence:
I remember being in a variation of my current home. I was in the kitchen. I remember a big man, he was a friend of ours; I think he was of some african ethnicity but he wasn't that dark - he had short hair and brown eyes and big hands; his girlfriend, who was of similar ethnicity was there too? She had long curly hair and brown eyes also. I think the kitchen lights may have been on, but it was day outside, maybe clear but very early.

I remember they were talking and then it turned into an argument and I joined his girlfriend's side of the argument for some reason. Then I asked him to leave, and I realised I was a bit angry, so I immediately calmed myself down, touched him in the arm, as he was upset too, and I said "I'm sorry about that." - then everyone was a bit calmer and for some reason he had this bag full of chestnuts covered in sugar that had been deep-fried. They looked delicious but I commented that they looked nice, but unfortunately my mouth didn't agree because of all the sugar.

I tried to make light of the situation somehow but either way, I then went through the main hall; the front door was open and as I walked out, the scenery was different from what it should be; our side of the street was still a row of terraced houses but the opposite side was just forest/green, and the road was wider (2 lane instead of single lane) and the pavement was much wider. My partner was parked up to the right in the car. To the left was some sort of factory (maybe tire factory, there is one where I live, but not that close).

The factory was not open, as all its (visitor?) parking spaces outside were empty. I thought it had closed for the day, though the dream-time seemed like morning, my assumption was end of day time in the dream. Opposite to the factory parking spaces was a wide bit where a bus/coach could stop. Then the road did a curve as it went on.

My partner was on the phone and had sunglasses on in the car. Opposite me, the other side of the road was some Korean man, he smiled a lot I think. Some children were playing too, I remember a little girl for some reason. I remember my mood outside was a driven one, I was looking for parking for the man inside the house, and I concluded there was none apart from the factory's spaces, so I walked back in and was going to tell him, but I had some doubts it was "ok" to use those spaces, but I think I could hear my partner's voice saying it was fine, because everyone had left. (another hint that the dream time was end of day, really)

Transition of some kind or missing detail...

I remember being with a group of people, my dad was one of the people but I don't remember who else, I think just dream characters. Of note was a man older than my dad. We were in a mall (this could have been a more obvious dream-sign on its own, plus the presence of my dad) and then we went up some concrete stairs and we were in an overhang tunnel, that went over some street or something. It wasn't very long but had angular corners. I walked next to my dad and as we were crossing, he pulled some sort of lever and the tunnel bridge started to rotate its middle section; I looked behind to see if the other DCs were able to get on.

We walked to the other end and there was a stairwell down. Then I remember being outside of there and it was like some sort of campus... I looked around (I can't remember my motivations or intents) and ended up going down some more stairs into a dark place, a subway. The tracks were at the same level as the platform, i.e. there was no stone/concrete lip over the tracks. There were quite a few people at this tiny platform that was no bigger than a small room. The tunnels were equally dark, maybe brighter somehow. I think I had stepped on someone that was sitting down at some point, though I don't remember apologising, for some reason. I couldn't see them, still.

Then I went down more stairs, to a similar sort of platform, also dark and small with several people waiting. I realised I was in the wrong place "that's the yellow line... I want the blue line" I thought, after seeing a yellow line along the tracks. I went up a level again and concluded that platform wasn't right either. I had the impression that each track was for the same line but went opposite directions.

I got out to the surface again, this campus place, but everything looked... fake, almost plastic-like. I walked along the pavements between the grassy bits and there were people around. I reached a point that had one of those blocks you can hit from Super Mario. The dream started to look a bit Minecraft-y, with voids in certain spots on the ground, sky visible. I fell down by accident into a small void pit but fortunately there were some stone blocks there. I climbed up the opposite side and continued walking.

Dream details are starting to go really fuzzy now, remaining memories of particular note only being one of a sword or something and of walking into a different place.

Notes:

• When I was thinking why I didn't want the chestnuts the reason was a valid waking-life reason, as I currently have some mouth ulcers that I really shouldn't "feed".
• It is peculiar that chestnuts appeared, especially prepared in such an unusual way. I haven't had chestnuts in quite a while, but I haven't been thinking about them. It may be an automatic craving, as this is about the right time of the year, when we used to have chestnuts at my childhood home.
• The Korean man was a waking-life remnant because a friend of ours was discussing the North Korean leader in passing conversation last night.
• The subway, tracks, etc all were very obvious dream-signs that I missed as always. As I was thinking about that part when I was writing it, I was realising that when I've seen trains recently (mostly in games) I've never remembered to do a RC.

Morning of October 3, 2018. Wednesday.

Dream #: 18,916-01. Reading time (optimized): 2 min. Readability score: 71.



My dream self is non-lucidly in my den in the Stadcor Street house in Brisbane, where we have not lived for years (since our two oldest were young children). There is clutter of which I am sorting. I pick up several winter sweaters from atop other items on the floor and hang them on a hook on the door. A few are like ones I have had in real life, including a gray one. I also pick up pieces of technology, such as a sound card.

The west wall has a narrow gap under it. I notice that a big dragonfly is headfirst about halfway under it. It seems to be dead. I decide to show it to my youngest son. (My dream self has no recall that he never lived at this address.) When I turn around, the bedroom where Zsuzsanna and our youngest son is is the same room I had just been in, though my dream self does not notice this error. The head of the bed is against the west wall. Zsuzsanna is sitting up in bed. Our youngest son is standing on the opposite side of the room.

I feel intense vibrations in my fingers as the dragonfly is alive and moving its wings. I go to the back door, incorrectly rendered as facing east into the yard rather than south onto the porch, and let it go. It still has trouble flying, so stays near the door.

Looking out the window of the back door after closing the door, I see an American robin (juvenile based on its coloring) hopping out to the center of the backyard. It seems that the bird probably ate the dragonfly, though I did not see this occur. I awake around this time.

---

Use of a door or doorway serves as one of two potentials, either triggering the waking process (as here) or triggering lucidity and vivification. A door is a transition from one mode of consciousness to another, in real time.

Birds have been a common point of focus in the last moments of my dreams since early childhood. It is an emerging consciousness factor as an association with the dream self’s fictitious body (not viably understanding where one’s real physical body is, associating the essence of sleeping and dreaming with flight). The dragonfly was a potential for lucidity but did not serve as such. This type of focus, which has occurred in many dreams, is from subliminal awareness of my hands when my dream self’s attention focuses on picking up or moving something.

No preconscious avatar is present. That is most often because of the presence of a dream state indicator, in this case, the bedroom and bed, a feature of at least one dream per sleep cycle since earliest memory and which serves as a precursory liminal awareness of being asleep, thus the preconscious is often not needed in RAS mediation of this type. (That depends on my dream self’s mode and progress of transition from the dream state.)
