A long journey.

This was a long one... and it even carried over when I woke up and fell back asleep. I cant remember it all, mostly because I am lazy and barely even use my oice recorder =/

Well anyways, I think I was in Middle Earth. Mostly because There were Hobbits Orcs and Gandalf, he was a prominent figure in the dream. The ring was gone, that was not a concern.

Thick forest; we had set up camp and were bs'ing by the fire, the hobbits were ripped drunk Me and a few others were smoking pipes, Gandalf was playing a small celtic drum, and I could also hear a hammer dulcimer, I wondered who was playing it, then realised Gandalf was just making the music magically, but was playing the drum, he was good at it too, I wanted to give it a whirl, and he leaned forward after the thought crossed my mind, he looked directly at me, but voiced the question to everyone, Anyone else want to give it a go? He stared at me, I guess I would, even though I had no idea what I was doing, I took the drum and started fiddling with it and its little drumstick you use both sides. I wasnt very good but did get marginaly better =)

anyways, the others had gone off there was a village south they were running back to get some supplies, north was more woods. to the east the woods got very dense, and just to the west was a river chazm, it had sheer cliff walls and everything, night was beginning to fall Gandalf went north, didnt say for what, just that he would be back. I was alone at the camp now and somone came running from the north, screaming something about a warrior, the Shark knight or something I think he actually ate his victims. The person said look look that tent way over there, to the northeast I peered through the trees and sure nuff there was a large tent, Then a rider came through the woods, sword drawn, the guy took off like a shot, I stood there like a retard, the man raised his sword and made a battle cry...

Oh crap...

I started casting enfeebling spells on him, there was no way I would be able to match his sword skill. I am still an amatur I cast slowed him, blinded him and even something to take his stamina, but he kept coming, I started runing trying to dodge using the trees as cover, he got frikin close, I nearly lsot my head, then I heard Gandalf..."STOP!"
The knight froze, his horse mid stride.. time was stopped.. I could still move... Gandalf came from the north and stood by me, he opinted to the chazm, "Go stand near the edge, wake up and then come back here."

I realised what he was saying...

I did so.

I woke up, to this place, and sat there for a moment, thinking about the dream, remembering the most recent bit, and then let myself fall back asleep, WILD there I was standing at the chazm no one was there, everyone was gone, my camp and all my materials were gone, gandalf was gone, the village, ntohing, I was in the middle of nowhere?

---I have to go right now I am at work I will post the rest, which is lengthy in a little while..---

It was impressive though the canyon was like grand canyon scale deep but not nearly as wide, it was probably a football field wide.

It was cool looking the forest went nearly up to the edge I jst stood there for a while, I should have jumped and flew. but Everything crumbled and I woke up again. I sat there for a little bit, I did manage to get back to the same place, the time was messed up though, need to work on that.

I fell back asleep and I was standing on a sandy area there was a hill in one direction and a road that ran up twards the hill. The people there had no place to plant their fields, they said the sand would not harbor any life, I took a rake from one and dug into the sand about a foot down was an incredibly black rich soil.... I looked at them and said, "sometimes you have to dig a little to find riches"

I started rakign away the sand... so yeah you can kinda guess how much of a pain it was... I was making head way but it was too much of a pain, I was near where the hill started an noticed there was water seeping through and the sand was wet. I dug a little and found the top of a cave or some kind of drain... I dug it out some more and water could be seen seeping out, I had enough of the rake though, I stared at it wanting it to be a hoe, the air around it started to shimmer, like heat rising from it, that when it hit me again, I felt like a fool.

I held the rake behind me and turned it into a hoe, I dug out the area and found it was a pretty damned big drain I could stand up in it even. I think I willed away some of the sand becuase there was a lot of it, and I wasnt there that long... .well time is always weird for me i duno ayways it was cleared out and the water had drained away the tunnel went far, I couldent see an end to it, I started walking down it and then woke up again.

Crap... this is getting annoying.

I fell back asleep focusing on where I was, and Poof I managed to end up right back where I was in the tunnel...
The hair on the back of my neck stood on end, I started runnin, I decided it was time to listen to my intuition, I managed to get lost and then finaly found my way out, something was following me, or somethings... I found my way back out and it was the all the same, the hoe was even laing on the ground, I picked it up and turned around just in time to block some smelly thing from bringin a big pipe down on my head, I jumped back, it looked like a zombie... f*$&%@# zombies.... I hate the undead. I swung the hoe at it, zombies are slow, this should be easy. It dodged but I backswung and hit it, it went klank...

Klank?

I'm dreaming....

I changed the hoe into my heron mark sword, Much better. But the thing still had a big pipe, its not quite the ideal thing to be fighting agains when you have a sword... I managed to slash the thing in the leg it didnt go down, I was getting pissed, I rolled back, and lept into the air and swung down on its head, time to cleave this thing in half....

Bink.. I frikin bounced off of it and my sword shatered... what the hell..

I summoned my sword back, this one was made of light.. it was taking way too mch energy to keep though, I duno why. I sliced the zombies head off, well the top of its skull, it was cybernetic... this was differnt...

Some more had come wandering out of the tunnel by now, I ran.. I couldent keep the sword it was too draining...
I ran outside, and up the enbankment of sand, there was a tank the guy at the gun on the top of the turret aimed at me and I dove screaming not me asshole!, he turned and whailed on the zombies coming out of the tunnel they took took the punishment, damned cybernetic zombies... I figured the military had somehting to do with this, only they were stupid enough to create cybernetic zombies, I was tired of this crap I still knew I was dreaming. So I did what I should have done a while ago. I changed into my dragon form, it was the physical change, its so strange, feeling my neck stretch out, its like my head stays in one spot and my body end up farther away, the wings are odd becaue there is nothing resembling htem on our normal human forms, the tail isint as weird, because it just grows out of the tailbone.
such a good feeling cant be beat, time to kick some ass, I just started grabbing the zombies and swinging them around like rag dolls I smashed them up on the side of the tank I started tearing them limb from limb, I didnt use my breath weapon, no need, I just smashed them up =) When I had laid wast to all of the remaining freaks of nature I took flight... I just flew, I cannot express the freedom I feel when flying under my own power, not breaking any rules, becoming one with the air and wind its frikin awsome =)

amazing.

Great adventure, man! and the bit about flying, i have never done it in a dragon form, but i love it anyway!

:cheers:

dosent have to be a dragon, try anything, an eagle, a sparrow hummingbird, bat whatever, it just feels so different actually flying and not breaking the rules and doing the superman.

now im completely interested.

breaking the rules, that is interesting, as is alot you have to say! but im going to try that!

score. :cheers:

None of my dreamforms have wings :(

Seeker... research wings, use the net, any books video too watch the motions of a birds wing as it flies, also insects, incects are odd bcause their bodies are ridged, the seem more mechanical but they use the same flapping technique as birds, also skeletal structures and musculature look into. use as many different sources as you can...

Now, heres the other part,

Watch birds with your own eyes, as they fly through the sky, watch how they takeoff and land, watch duck and geese landing and taking off a lake, if any place you know of swans watch them, they are really big, and you can see alot more of whats going on also, you can get the idea of how a LArger animal can takeoff an land.

If I am guessing right, being you like quantum physics and stuff, the way your mind works, its scientific, like mine, perhaps if you KNOW how a birds wings work you will be able to create a set of your own =) If your already an ornithic expert, i duno then... perhaps if you apply the two the scientific knowledge and your dreams you might be able to create some.

This may take some time though, untill your spirit knows how wings work you might be grounded, You may know the book stuff to a "T" but KEEP watching the living beings fly!!! You will think about it at first, but after a while you just watch them, when you realise yourself doing this you will be closer to attaining wings for yourself...


Because we werent given wings to fly with... We have to create them. :wink:

Science has done it with the airplane, but still in that tin can there is a yearning. To silence that yearning the spirit must also fly...on its own real wings, not some composit or metal stiff wing of an airplane, the kind birds use.

:D *twich* passes out and ZoNkS

I like dragonflies! Always have!
I'm gonna try that one! As you know, one set of wings creates vortices and the other set generates lift from these vortices!

Besides, dragonflies were probably one of the first creatures to achieve flight. It's interesting that it is one of the most complex and efficient!

its amazing how much we can learn from nature, how much we have at our fingertips that most people disregard not out of stupidity, but of ingnorance or they plainly just dont know about it!

great advice, Seri, about the observations of flying creatures! every time i see one, i think i will take notice of its flight patterns. :cheers:

Superceding feelings of guilt represent the silhouette you present in front of me. -me[/b]

There is a place near my old home on Li deep in the woods near an old ruiver dam, the dragonflies there are ELECTRIC colors, yellow green red and blue... i mean they are day glow, metallic colors...

Thing with them is.. you ever watch them and see a bird flying near them? Dragonflys seem unnefected by the wind, its like they are running on some kind of antigravity propulsion =) They dont make sense, you will see a bird fighting the wind and you see a dragonfly hovering TOTALY motionless, they are amazing little buggers =) They make any helicopter or airplane designer jealous!

Yeah, you've got to wonder whay more animals, especially insects don't have that design.

I know what you mean by colors. Where I used to live, they were electric blue, with great big eyes :shock:

Dragonfly for me it is. I'm going to start working on it in a few hours...

Great experience Serinath, and the informations about flying are wonderfull.

Thanks :)
