I decided to wake up at four again. When I woke up I took the trouble to check the time. It was six. I may have woken up before that, there is a faint memory. Artillery Battle There is a battle going on. I'm at an artillery base a bit from the front line. People are firing bombs toward the enemy. Sometimes small bombs and fiery rings land close to us and we have to be careful. A helicopter flies in low, below the tree level actually, and almost starts shooting. Someone is aiming a rocket launcher at it. Spying, Then Running I'm with a small group of people breaking into a red wooden building. We get in, the doors are not locked, and the others start looking around. Someone notices us outside and I go and lock the door so that he doesn't get in. There is another door and I try to lock it, but it's not attached to the wall on the hinge side. The man gets in and arrests us. They take us to the middle of the yard one of them tells us that we must run away and they will try to catch us. Another one has a large back with him. He spreads the contents on the ground. I take a pair of sneakers. Then I start running towards a field with a girl from our group, probably X. One of the others yells behind us that we should have ran to the road first, that was in the rules. There is a road on the other side of the yard. There is also a small road on the other side of the field and I reach it and yell back that I'm on a road. We keep running, jumping over ditches. There doesn't seem to be anyone following us, though, the others are playing by the rules. We are running pretty fast and jumping over what are almost rivers. I remember that I'm quite often in similar situations when I'm dreaming. If I was dreaming I could fly, and that would be handy. Just to check, I take a longer jump and start flying. I'm very surprised, I really thought I was awake. And I wake up. I think about the dream a little bit before I turn and fall asleep. This was probably a false awakening. It was pretty convincing, but in the morning I noticed that the colors in the room were wrong.
I had a lucid dream tonight. There doesn't seem to be anything triggering it. There might be something I'm missing. I was thinking about dreaming when falling asleep. I also tried waking up during the night again. I thought about getting up and checking the time, but then I just fell asleep again. I'm walking with two people in a completely different story line, don't remember anything about it. There are three women sitting on a bench in a hall. Two men, one with a gun, are standing next to them. I think they are slaves being transported. I sit down next to them, and now I'm one of the slaves. The men move us to a room. There's three of them now, and one of them goes away. I think for a while, and then get a change to grab the gun from the guard. I fire a couple of shots to the wall and order them to a corner. Then I think for a while about the situation and the guards try to talk me into giving them the gun. I fire a couple more shots to the wall. The pullets are nails and the gut has turned into a nail gun. I decide the best course of action is to flee and, flailing the gun around, go trough a door to the balcony. I get the feeling that I'm dreaming. I try this out by flying. I jump over the railing. Then I say it out loud, "I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming". It sounds like it's coming from everywhere, echoing. But It's my voice, and it's clear. Now that I think about it, maybe jumping of the balcony on the third floor is not the optimal reality check. In real life I wouldn't have been able to get over the railing in one jump though. I fly forward a bit, hanging over the middle of the yard. The guards have come down and are standing on the yard, looking. I want to fly higher but can't. Then I remember one should stabilize the dream, so that I don't get too excited. I close my eyes and rub my hands together. The feeling is clear. Then I open my eyes. I'm still just hanging there. I try to fly higher, but it's still not working. I cheat a bit, using the wall to push myself up. I get on the ceiling. I look around and see a black sky. I open my eyes and wake up. I'm a bit surprised that I'm completely conscious and there doesn't seem to be much of a transition, I just open my eyes.

I cant feel my hand like its asleep so i cant feel my self shoot i cinda worry about that.I ride the bike right in to the building side entrance and run right into a lot of guards. I jump up into the air as the bike continues on and crashes into the guards. Whiel im in the air i fire off my my pistols i have too 9mm in my hand now i take out all the guards before i hit the ground,except on as i walk past a surviving guard on the ground he says DONT KILL ME--- I cut him off with a bullet to the head.The guards are in all black with black motorcycle helmets on visers down. As i walk down the hallway i become LUCID. I dont do a reality check i can just feel my real body in bed.I turn right down a hallway then go left instead when i look behind me i imagine it a dead in now and it is. I go into a door on my left and run into a guard in the doorway he has a gun like off the game army of too. I take his gun quicky and shoot him up i feel completely calm and invincible.I lose lucidity and have a last image of being completely surrounded by guards i go third person and see the leader smirking at me
Black means non lucid Orange means semi lucid Blue means lucid Red means dream characters talking Purple means possible shared dreaming person Green means notes Got it? Great! You know what to do. Dream #1 Little Red Riding hood. Im in my 2nd home fixing me something to eat, when i notice that im in my kitchen and it looks a bit odd. 1st of all i don't live here anymore..so why am i here in the 1st place? My doorbell rings before i even have time to question how i got here. I go answer the door, and what do ya know..ITS LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD!? "Excuse me but can you please help me escape from these men who have accused me of murder?" Uh..your wanted for murder..and...you want me to help you? "Mmhm." She nods her head so innocently, as if what she is saying is ok. Hmm...ok, i'll help you. "YAY!" Mkay, follow me. I lead her downstairs to my basement and tell her to go in the back and put on some fresh attire and i'll take care of the rest. I look in the mirror rubbing my multiplying hawk coin totem. "What are you doing?" Im goin to project as you and lead them on a chase. "Wow really?" You can do that??? I can do anything in this world. Getting prepared. Im now putting on little Red Riding Hood's robe, And looking at myself in the mirror. Fully transformed into her now, I head to my back room in the utility closet and strap myself with guns and knives. Ok you stay down here in this basement ok? If anything happens to me, and i don't return back here in a hour, i want you to take this celphone and push the number 6 you got it? "Why number 6?" Because that stands for N, and N stands for Natalia. "Ooh ok." Dream #2 The chase. Im walking thru this village, holding little Red Riding Hood's basket. and there are wanted posters of little Red Riding Hood all over the place. I walk into a nearby store to buy some stuff. This heavy set woman who looks russian or german looked at me, then looked up at the wanted poster on her wall. I smile innocently and ask her, "how much does this candy cost?" Lol The woman looks at me folding her arms and looks at her telephone and begin dialing. Not wanting to stick around any further to see whats goin to happen, i run out of the store. There are a bunch of men staring at me and talking to eachother whispering. I yell at everybody.. "COME AND GET ME!" And stick my tongue out and give everyone the middle finger. I begin running, I lead the men on a little foot chase and run thru this entire village, jumping over fruitstands, running under vegetable stands, and hopping over cars. I begin shooting at everyone who was chasing me then continue running. I now lead the almost entire village thru a dark foggy forest, where you can hear frogs, owls, crickets, and other little sounds. I hide behind a tree and shapeshift into a rabbit and hide somewhere in a bush. I can hear the people chattering to eachother, saying things like.. "Where did she go? She was just here a minute ago?" Im hidden in the bushes as the rabbit and now flee thru another exit of the forest and shapeshift back into myself. I get to a payphone and tell little Red Riding Hood im on my way. I walk thru a door and mentally tell myself that i will be back at my 2nd home when i walk thru this door. I walk thru it and see little Red Riding Hood eating a bowl of cereal. Watching cartoons. I laugh and say.."Well i see you made yourself comfortable. She giggles and runs up to me and gives me a hug. "So do you mind telling me why you killed those men?" She looks down, "im sure you have a reason?" "I don't want to talk about it." "Alright." But just remember who saved your butt, and gave you a place to stay. "You up here eating my Cap'n Crunch cereal and watching cartoons." Just remembered who helped you. I walk over to my files and records and sit down at a table sorting thru stuff. She starts explaining to me about how she is really a agent, and not really little Red Riding Hood. She mentions her real name to me (I forget what it was) and tells me that she is actually 18 years old. I tell her that me and Natalia can give her a place to lay low for awhile til things cool down. She thanks me, and i call Natalia on my celphone to let her know that im gonna need her assistance. The dream ends and i wake up. Notes: Im fairly happy with my recall from last night. (Even though i went to bed at 3:30 am) Im surprised i was able to remember so much...though i only wish i could've remember Little Red Riding Hoods real name. But overall im fairly happy with what i got.

Black means non lucid Orange means semi lucid Blue means lucid Red means dream characters talking Purple means possible shared dream person Green means notes Got it? Great! Now sit back and enjoy. Dream #1 This little thing of ours. Im in a room (possibly one of my dream homes i built) talking to Natalia about our status. So we just gonna keep yelling at eachother for nothing? "Nobody told you to do it, you did it YOURSELF"! Forget it, just forget it. (obviously she is upset about what i do not know) Where are we right now hm? HM? "What are you talking about"? I mean where do we stand? This little thing of ours? "I am who you want me to be". What i mean is how long we gonna keep doin this huh!? I mean its like we fight then we make up. What the fuck Natalia? I mean if something is bothering you just come right out and say it! "KISS MY ASS"! (She walks away from me) Alright fine, be that way then. Dream #2 She got herself a shotgun. Me and Natalia are driving down a highway in a marron coloured corvette. And that song shotgun is playing on the radio. She has a new shotgun she named it lola. She is dancing nodding her head to the music in her dark shades, and tapping the steering wheel. "I love this song". Always puts me in the mood to go shoot some shit up! Lmao. Whats with you and your love for guns Natalia hm? I always wondered that. "What can i say? Some girls love sugar and spice and everything nice, uh uh, not this girl." She likes a feel of the cold steel gripped between her palms, and the smell of gun powder always gets me wet". I see. (my mind drifts a bit here) We pull up to a apartment complex. So this is the place? "Mmhm. You got your pistol"? Yea. You got lola? "Oh yea, lets go take em out". The mansion. Its evening time, and the location seems to be somewhere by Miami somewhere. We walk up to this big mansion, and walk to the side of the house. Ducked down low, we creep thru the back of this mansion. We go seperate ways, and peek thru windows. There are a few men in suits joking in the house about something. I tap on the glass 4 times and duck, then run around the side of this mansion. A guy runs out to check to see whats going on. I notice Natalia creeps up behind the man and cracks his neck. (My memory gets foggy here) and the dream fades. Dream #3 trying to find Sinoblak again. I did a wild at 5:30 am. Im now in my current home looking in the mirror. I reach in my pocket to grab my hawk coin totem. I rub it, I build my awareness with it. Where am i right now? What did i just do a hour ago? I was asleep a hour ago. I GOT TO FIND SINOBLAK!!! I dive thru the mirror. I end up at some empty apartment. Was Sino here? I look around the apartment trying to find clues. I pick up books, and pieces of paper with notes written on them. I grow a bit impatient and set out to look for her. I exit the apartment, im not in America anymore, this place feels different yet somehow familar. I walk slowly down this empty street late at night. I notice a stray german sherpard wandering the streets as well. I whistle to him he walks up to me. Hey there boy, can you help me find a friend? I go back to the aparatment to find a bunch of cars there blocking the entrance. There are men standing around talking about something. I am now spotted by two of the men. "Hey you"! What the hell do you think your doing here! Not feeling like fighting or do i? hehehe The men run up to me, one the men swings at me i duck and jab at him in the face. Not wanting to use any special ability here, as i wanted to increase the intensity of the dream more. Another guy runs up to me and i counter his punches and crack his arm and headbutt him in the face. After they are laid out, I say now gotta finish finding Sinoblak. I walk thru doors opening doors searching for her. I look thru stores, food places, i go thru malls searching for her even calling for her. Finally i fall backwards and have a false awakening. Dream #4 Reading thru my files and records. Im in my 2nd home in my living room on the couch looking thru my files and records searching for something. (my doorbell rings) I go answer the door its a Asian dude asking me something about helping him find his sister cause she may be in danger. I tell him hang on give me a min. I put my files up in my room and arm myself with a pistol and head out the door. Dream #5 Not in my house. Me and this one black dude was talking about whos better on the court. Im playing him in basketball and just remember yelling out something like. "Yea thats what im talking about"! Not in my house! And i wake up. Final dream Time is running out. Running thru this house shooting at these men chasing me in suits. Im evading their bullets, and exit thru doors. I stare at my watch using my mental strength to slow down time. I dive thru this nearby mirror and up in a huge house. I hear a piano being played. I walk over to see this little girl playing this piano. She has very fair complexion, looks like she is 8 or 9 and has dark black hair and blue eyes. I ask her how did she learn to play piano. "Oh my friend taught me". Wow, she must be really good then. Listen can you help me find a friend? I show her a pic of Sinoblak? "Mmm i think shes out right now but she should be back soon". Have a seat. I sit on the couch listening to this child prodigy playing the piano. That music is so calm i say. I fall asleep. False awakening. Im in my bed and look around everything looks normal and feels normal but is it? I reach underneath m,y pillow to grab my totem and start reality checking. I knew it..SINO IM COMING!!! I dive thru the mirror and end up at some casino. I look around trying to search for Sinoblak. I walk around glancing at poker tables, slot machines, all while rubbing my hawk coin totem. I see a woman waiting by a bar, she looks like Sinoblak. I see her brunette hair as she flicks it drinking her drink, she is wearing a bergund dress and looks very elegant this evening. I walk over to her, I hear music in the distance, NO, NO, NO!!!! Not my beethoven alarm! The dream fades and i wake up. Notes: Im making real progress here. I can do a hell of a lot better then this though. I will find her! Im overall slightly dissapointed with myself, for my lack of focus in this dream. Clearly i have gotten thrown off quite a few times here. Well, tonight is another night so we see how it goes again.

Hunting A colleque from my workplace, in the dream a teacher, is missing. She has either been kidnapped or escaped with some guerrilla group. We are following her. We get to a dock, where there are a couple of thugs. There is some martial arts display and I start flying towards the ship. I'm not flying very well, and one of the thugs notices. He says that my legs are tired and my flying is almost as bad as his. He starts following me. Canoes I'm walking with a few people. There's snow around the road. We come to a river that is only partially frozen. There are two canoes and we use them to get across. The ice floating on the river is making it harder keep the canoe straight. I fall of the canoe once, landing on a piece of ice. Sleeping in the Snow I'm camping in a forest with some friends. There is a small building and I go in there. It turns into a 2D game-like thing. I'm looking for a weapon and find a fire flower like in Super Mario. I get out and go to where the others are should be setting a camp. Instead, they have decided to sleep in the snow. They have dug themselves into the snow with their sleeping bags.

Black means non lucid Orange means semi lucid Red means dream characters Blue means lucid Purple means possible shared dream person Green means notes Got it? Great! now as always, sit back relax, kick off your shoes, grab a snack or something and enjoy dreams! Dream #1 The Vanessa Hudgens experiment part 1 (Rated PG 13) Im in my old 2nd home watching something on t.v, when i hear a woman in the bathroom singing??? i ignore it and decide to fall asleep on the couch. I now awaken in a abandoned old shack, dusty old furniture and mices and rats crawling all over the place. I get up dust myself off, and head outside where it is night time, to notice this black bald headed dude (who looks like R.kelly) having sex with some woman against a car. I decide to not become a peeping tom, well because that would just be considered weird. I now walk to a apartment complex where there are two mexican men talking about something i forget what it was. Dream #2 The Vanessa Hudgens experiment part 2 ( Rated PG 13) Im now in a backyard it is sunny out and there is a party or something. there is a different mixture of people and everbody is having a good time. I reach in my pocket to grab my hawk coin totem and reality check with it, wait a min...how did i end up here??? Fully aware and lucid im walking around looking for dreamman9380. I grab my celphone and call him, great no answer. I over two guys talking about they hid something in a room, my curiousity grew and i walked closer to the guys they were two hispanic males sitting on a apartment balcony. They both looked at me and i walked a different direction pretending to head somewhere else but i stayed nearby. These guys seem suspicious and i sensed that they had something to do with my friend dreamman9380. I decided to take measures into my own hands, I overheard Vanessa Hudgens voice somewhere and teleported there immediately. She was in a recording studio singing. I looked at her and said let us become one and the same..(that last quote echoed) and my energy emerged with hers. I was now projected as Vanessa Hudgens. I felt the dream fading and rubbed my hands together and looked at my surroundings focusing on all the little things around me. I was wearing some black heels a black dress and my hair was down straight. Still projected as her i decided to teleport back to that previous location seduce one of the guys into that room where something was hidden. I walked up to them twirling my hair chewing some gum, and said...you fellas in for a little fun? they looked at eachother and nodded. We now enter the inside of the house and i notice there is door with a lock on it. The men look at me and say.. there ain't nothing in there for you sweetheart. Well can you show me whats in there??? exposing a little skin i got his attention. Ok but just a peep thats it. Wow...what do you keep in here? A little bit of everything mostly guns he whispers. Ooh, can you show me where you keep them? Uhhh, i don't think thats a good idea, pleeeease? I notice his partner heading towards a bathroom and shuts the door. Ok ok, but im just gonna let you see it thats all. He reachesin this drawer and pulls out a variety of different toys. This gun here is called a 9MM this gun is called a revolver, and this one is called..do you have any silencers? Uhh yea yea i got one right here. Can i see how it feels? Now i can't let you hold it sweetheart because its loaded, and well..Turn the safety on. He gives me a look like he is almost afraid to do it, Your not afraid of litte ol me now are you? walking closer to him leaning up against him. He presses his lips together and makes his final decision. Alright, but no funny shit! He puts the safety on. I hold the silencer in my hands, wow...this feels really good. You know, you look really sexy with that gun in your hands you know that? I strike poses for him. I point it at him POW! I pretend to shoot him. He jumps, and i giggle. Ok real funny k give it back now. Aww you afraid im gonna shoot you? i turn the safety off. Where is it? Where is what i i i don't know what your talking about? The file, WHERE THE FUCK IS THE FILE!? In there! He points to a nearby dresser i walk sideways still aiming the gun in his direction. I dig thru the files looking up at him in here? Mmhmm. Come over here and get it. (He looks down afraid to look at me) I SAID GET THE FUCK OVER HERE AND COME GET IT!!! Ok ok ok! And hurry up, i don't have all day! Here its all there. I grab it then hear the bathroom door opening. This better be it! I look at it and see my friends name on it. Yep thats him alright. I run out the back door and immediately start running down the fire escape. there are a bunch of spiral stairs and some intense action music is playing ih the background. I hear the men yelling and run down a nearby alley, I stop and take off the heels as they are hurting my feet. i leave them by a green dumpster and continue running until i notice my friend dreamman9380! Hey over here i yell! he stops and turns around walks up to me, we are on a sidewalk somewhere. Whoa wait a min..your Vanessa Hudgens right??? I give him a confused look forgetting im still projected as her. Hang on....(i project back as my normal self) Whoa...Q??? How the hell you just do that? I hand him his file, i can't exlain right now. I make a portal, head somewhere safe and lock that up ok? I don't understand? I can't explain just GO!! (i push him thru the portal) I dive thru with him as we end up at some building. Where are we? I don't know, but you better hide that file somewhere. Thanks Q. No problem man, you just make sure you put that file up somewhere A.S.A.P. Ok, i will. I nod my head and get a good look at everything around me. the dream fades, and i wake up My friend Dreamman9380 had problems remembering his dreams over the past few years. During 2011, I made a promise to him that i will do my best to help him remember his dreams more. I often share dreams with him and a few others, but this was the 1st time i helped him recover from a long dry spell. What was in that file? To this day im still wondering myself, and perhaps it holds the key, to him remembering his dreams.

First I'm in a school, trying to talk with a girl who seems depressed. I guess I'm a counselor or something. She keeps evading me, seems like she doesn't want to talk, but I seem to think it's very important. There is a point where she's hiding behind some other kids. She tries to look like she's talking with them but it seems pretty clear the others are not interacting with her. When I catch up with her she says she doesn't want to talk about it. I don't really have any idea what to do. Second I'm in a complex that might be military or just recreational, hard to say. Some group attacks it and people run around defending according to a preplanned setup. There are planes and airships. I'm really just watching, not participating, but giving hints and ideas. When it's over we notice that one of the pilots is missing. She has apparently just left during the hassle. She was a flight risk anyway, but we all liked her and are hoping for her to come back.
First I'm at a house in a forest. There is some kind of a game going on, where people enter the house one by one to do a task. I don't remember much about the task itself. During it I think someone is implicated of a crime. After I come out I wander around the house on a path. There are some monsters that try to attack me. I think I'm with someone at this point. I have some first person shooter type weapons but they are not very effective. I'm able to keep them at bay, though, mostly kicking and throwing them. At some point the weapons turn into animals. Second I'm with a bunch of people at another house next to the woods. I think my family is there, but there are others as well. We're going to check out the other cabin. I'm walking faster that the others, singing. I ask someone for the lyrics when I forget. When we get there, there is a lake. Apparently the water has come down a lot and people are worried for the ecological balance of the area. The trees around the lake are almost dead and break easily. We go somewhere to investigate this. Third A man, who has implicated of some crime in the first dream, is a reporter and he is ordered to go to some totalitarian country. He should be able to get in even though he now has a criminal record, but there is some doubt. A guard is fiddling with the system, trying to help him, but he doesn't get in. The guard calls for security and a large officer comes. The officer apparently knows the reporter and they were supposed to meet, so all is going according to plan. Just outside the border control area there is a sport field. I'm in the audience looking at some people from the authoritarian country preparing for a running contest against a group of Tibetan buddhist monks.
First A woman is explaining something to someone else. It was about something mechanical, I don't remember what exactly. Second I'm at work and we're having a coffee break. It's not in the normal coffee room, but at a larger one, in another building. There is also a group of people there that I don't know, but apparently they belong to the same organization, they just organized the coffee break this time. There's some food also, but the breaks seems to be over and all the food has been eaten. I'm kind of hungry and I'm looking for something left over. There is a kind of a buffet at another part of the room, but there isn't much left there either. There's some rice in a kettle and some vegetables. They even have a waitress working there, for the coffee break, and she's putting things away. She says something to me about there being nothing left. Third I'm going on a trip with a group of people. One of us cannot cross some border because he doesn't have the appropriate medical papers. We talk about it and decide that he can see a doctor and join us in a day or two. When we come back, i believe a week or so later, he is still at the border station. He has been to the doctor but he has some minor health problem and getting the papers will take some time. Fourth I'm with a group, possibly the same as in the previous dream. We park out car at a small parking lot, next to a large mall. We go in and there is a carriage that belongs to the owner of one of the cars outside. I try to lift it and think that it's too heavy. At this point I'm aware that a crime has happened and I suspect there's something hidden in the carriage. We go back outside and talk to the owner of the carriage, a young man. We have no proof but I try to intimidate him by mentioning the weight of the carriage. He gets scared and runs away, towards the woods. I run after him and some of the others are running too, but they're a bit farther away. I cannot see him but a follow a trail. The train splits and I ask one of the others to check the other way. There is an opening in the woods and I see him. He tries to run around me and turn back, trying to trick me somehow. I circle a bit farther than he did to force him to run on the path, where on of the others catches him. There is a group of young people standing nearby, they were playing before we came. One of them, X, a girl a bit younger than me, wants to join us, thinking it's a game. I tell her that I can try to catch her but if I do, we throw her in jail. She runs towards me and starts to pretend I've caught her.
28.2 Fragments First I’m in a space shuttle, closing in on a larger ship. When I look down I see the continents, and I see fields, forests and rivers, and a few buildings. The setting is rural, but there is some very advanced technology as well. Second I’m in a forest and I have to survive there for a couple of hours, I don’t remember why. There are two or three other people there, and they are the reason survival might be a problem. I have a log to defend myself with and they have sticks. They try to hit me and I block with the log. Then they start playing a game where they pat a small ball around with the sticks. I try to take part, but it’s hard to hit the ball with the log. Third I’m outside a large building, almost a castle. There are separate gardens, some have water elements, and walls between the gardens. Fourth I’m in the same castle with N and we go to a balcony. There are some tables and chairs, and large open windows with a view of the garden. There is also one window with a very large windowsill. I would like to sit there, on the windowsill, but there is a group of people already sitting there. We settle for a table on the other side. Fifth I get tickets to an airplane. I say to S that there is still time for a coffee. When we walk past a coffee shop, there is a long line there and I tell hit that we don’t have time to wait. I think he doesn’t care for the idea anyway 25.2 The Conservationist Wizard and the Missing Boy First I’m at a house in the middle of a forest with a group of people. There is a long vehicle with caterpillars and we’re preparing to leave with it. I get in and we tour the are, sometimes going over a wooden bridge and breaking it. The driver is trying to make the point that the are is ruined by pollution. We get out pretty close to the house and I have a look at a pond. There’s some branches and the water looks a bit dirty but not bad. I think we could clean it with the vehicle we have. The driver, or maybe someone else, goes crouching behind some large rocks, looking at the house. His a soldier now, and clearly more experienced that I am. I follow him and we see a barbarian leader at the house. Somehow his responsible for ruining the forest. The driver gives me a rifle and I attack the barbarian. The rifle is a wizards staff now, with a clear crystal on top. I point it at the barbarian, who is actually a wizard in a gray robe now. He has a sword but doesn’t use it, and he doesn’t seem to have his staff. He tries to take the staff from me but I keep willing it to stay in my hands. The driver-soldier-wizard-person is actually controlling it from afar. The barbarian-wizard surrenders and we get to settle at the place. Second There is a lake with open water, even though it’s winter. I go swimming and I’m a bit surprised to notice that the water is warm. Third We’re inside the house now, and there’s a good amount of people there, mostly friends and family. I have a conversation with my brother about my father and then find out that R is missing. They have been looking for him and his presumed dead now. I’m worried but there doesn’t seem to be anything I can do, since it’s been so long and they have looked everywhere. I try to sleep, I feel really tired, but people keep worrying about R. There is some other thing that they have a problem with, but I don’t remember what. For some reason my bed is in the kitchen and I can hear the talking and worrying very well. I give up sleeping and we all go looking for R one more time. There is a small river close-by and R has been swimming there. He has used a chain to tie him to the shore, so that the current doesn’t take him. The chain is broken and everyone thinks he has been taken by the current. There is a treehouse just a few meters from the river. When I look at it, someone shouts that R is in there, though there’s no way they could see that. I climb the stairs to the treehouse. Before I get all the way up I hear that there’s someone there. I ask who it is and R answers that he’s there, and that he has some someone in there with him. 21.2, Fragment with Meditation Group I’m in high hall with winding stairs. I remember coming down the stairs from the third floor but don’t remember much before that. There is a group of people down in the middle of the floor. I know some of them. It’s some kind of a church group. I talk with them and they are talking about some obscure theological thing. It turns into something like a meditation group and I consider joining them, so far I haven’t had one close by, and I know some of them. They show me a small storage room with all their things, which actually includes a couple cushions and mats and nothing else.

Just a small fragment from last night. I hardly remember anything but there are a couple of images that come up. I didn’t really put any effort this time. I’m a young samurai warrior, and not an especially good one, in a Kurosawa-like setting. There is some kind of trouble going on, but they are individual encounters, no wars or anything like that. There is an encounter with a pretty unskilled swordsman, probably a thief. And later someone tries to attack me in my sleep. My own sword is not close by, but I grab the attackers sword by the blade and manage to twist it so that it stabs him.
I’m in a huge submarine, in a room somewhere on the lower levels. I’m in a group of some kind of super heroes or mutants. I find a way to a small, easily defendable compartment where we can hide for a while. There is a mutant king running the kingdom of the good guys. The bad guys, who are attacking in the huge submarine, are threatening the kingdom. They can win the battle easily and so very little actual fighting takes place. The king is on his way to exile. We are advancing on a corridor in the submarine. We run across another group of mutants, who are on the other side. Neither of us wants to fight, so we keep postponing it, talking and thinking about how to win them. Suddenly there is a noise and the submarine starts to sink. Some electronics are not working anymore but the lights are still on. We have no idea what happened. The king is looking over at the submarine as he is leaving the country. He sees is shake and start sinking. He says something to the enemy diplomats escorting him. He doesn’t know what happened either. But they don’t turn back.
Woke up during the night to memorize key point of the first dream. It helped but I don't remember much besides the key points. Apparently I forget the dreams I have in the morning, I tried going trough the dream but and memorize the key points, but I only remember one image. Also, it seems that my subconscious not only is a pacifist, but also has a very dark sense of humor. First dream There are two women hanging like apes on the top of a skyscraper. They are talking about how great the price is that they are going to get for doing that. I contemplate climbing the skyscraper I'm on, although I don't know what the price is. I think I can't do it, because I'm a bit afraid of heights. I'm downstairs and there is construction work going on. Two large building machines, one of them has roller chains. A worker gets caught in the chains and is pulled in. There is patriotic music playing in the background and the worker is torn to pieces, along with another one, who tries to help him. This is supposed to be a very patriotic scene where people give their lives for their country, even though it's completely meaningless. I feel ill. A kind of a superhero is jumping between the roofs of the city, I'm looking from above. He is trying to loose some super-villain that is following him. I know parts of the city. The superhero stops to hide and the villain looses him. Now I'm the superhero and I disguise as a normal person and continue walking. I walk trough the city towards home and pass trough a park. Second dream I'm in a large maze-like building.
I remember a lot this time. When I woke up most of it was gone but I had a few minutes to fish around and remembered a lot more. I had the alarm a bit later that usual and I remember waking up when the alarm should have rung and going to sleep again, continuing the same dream. Usually I wake up at the same time every morning. This might be useful later. I also decided to wake up 15 minutes before the alarm and that also worked. Rating a Knife I was on a trip to a forest somewhere far away. There were two cabins. In the other cabin someone had tried to light up a portable stove, but had left the kerosene bottle open and the gas had exploded, burning some hair. I had my own kerosene bottle and poured some to the stove. I didn't light it yet, though. I returned to my own cabin. I was rating the knives I had used during the trip. The ratings would then go on the internet. There was one I hadn't used, it had been lost when I asked for it. The owner said that it was in a really bad shape. He gave the knife to me and it had no handle. I went outside and tried slicing wood with it by hitting it with a piece of wood. It worked really well and I though that it actually was a pretty good chisel. I remember that the slices look almost too perfect. The owner came out and I told him that it was a good chisel. We were on a bus, leaving. I was standing near the front of the bus listening to someone give instructions. She told us that the weather was different than when we had left. It was raining. I wen't home and was alone there. I thought about going to get some candy but it was too late, it was dark outside. The Barbarian Invasion I was still at home but I was thinking about some game where I attacked a walled city with bats. I couldn't get in the city but the walls were breaking. I was commanding the troops attacking the city from a third person point of view, but aware that I was in my home at the same time (in the dream home). There was a news report about the city. A clan of barbarians had attacked and destroyed the walls. This was a normal dynamic, the people in the city build walls and the barbarians destroyed them. They didn't wand to go inside because that would risk war, but they would ride around the boundary and yell nasty things. There was some ethnic minority in the city that the barbarians wanted dead and if they saw one of those people they would throw spears and such. I was now in the city, in first person, and was yelling back at the barbarians. I took a rock and threw it at one of them. It turned out to be their leader, and I hit him in the head. He crossed the border to come look at me. I tried not to look scared, but he was on horseback and looked huge.
