medieval lucid dream

Hey there ,
So yesterday i got my first lucid dream using the mild technique
i woke up early and i was so tired so i went to bed and i kept repeating "I will have a lucid dream"
till i fell asleep then i got Sleep paralysis even when i got this phenomenon i kept repeating the same sentence
after that everything flashes yellow and i got my first lucid dream
sadly i woke up from the dream when i closed my eyes to make the dream more stable
so my questions is there any other way to make the dream stable other then closing my eyes
and
is it possible to create a medieval city or village in the dream
or maybe simulate one of vikings battles ??
or maybe become the king of medieval Austria and conquer Europe
do i need to get full control of the dream to do all of these ??
i know i'm going too far with the dreams but it would be wonderful if its possible

Thanks .

Hm, why don't you try only closing one eye?
This way you will become more in-tune with the dream by getting your "sight" limited and your field of vision focus more on certain details of the dream. You can try pretty much anything that will help you to engage with the dream so if you are a smells/hearing/touch person then yes closing your eyes would be the best option, it depends on you really and not so on the technique.

It is possible to create entire worlds in dreams, I have several planets and "universes" and one world inside of a book so yes, that is something very possible. And no you don't need to get full control of the dream to do those.
For example, what I would do if I can't control the dream by "wishing" things onto existence would be simply to use my dream powers to take over the minds of the DCs, force them onto the setting I want and then destroy/rebuild the place again using only my powers and start to play the game.
There is a difference between controlling your own "dream body" and the "whole dream" but they overlap when you have enough control of them and quite truthfully, it is just about being creative after all. THink of ways to do it, like getting a picture of the world you want to be in and then jumping inside of it or making as if you are painting it and then changing locations or what not.

Funny you should ask.

In one of my lucid dreams, I wanted to try just that, create a medieval village. I got lucid in my appartment in the city though, so I decided rather then try a full scenery change, I'd quickly fly to outside the city first. Once the city ended a forest began, which was already more in line with what I wanted. I used some dream manipulation to ensure that up ahead, I'd encounter that medieval village. Sure enough, after a few more seconds of flight I spotted something resembling a village on the horizon. It required a bit more dream manipulation to make sure it was properly sized (and not some mini mock-up, which it turned out to be at first:)). I circled around a few times until I got it clear. Then I set down in a nice little village, populated and everything, with wooden huts, old fashioned blacksmiths and horse-masters, all under a sunny sky.

It was a memorable dream :)
