That is a very well described perspective, thank you. I do have some questions about it, indeed.

For example: If these are feelings I am not aware of, how can I now when I am affected by them or not? Do they have a similar nature in waking moments as they do during dreams?

I can also provide a more detailed description of when I met this creature in my dreams as well as answer questions about my person that may shed light on this. However, I would rather appreciate this being done via private messages given the nature of the information (I can always update this thread if necessary).
