Thread: Task of the Month for December 2016

Did the bonus task. In the future I saw, they had converted to wind power and most of the houses were windmills. They had flying bicycles with sails too!

Spoiler for TOTM Bonus: The future:

Feel paralysis and shaking. A white wall appears next to the bed. I wait for things to stabilise and then stand up and pinch my nose for a long while to convince myself this is a dream.

Through the door is an unfamiliar house and a strange bald headed man approaching. I duck out of another door into a garden. It's time to do a few tasks. The next Christmas task requires a goose. I start searching the garden. Finally a goose runs out from the shrubs into the path. I catch the goose and pet it, talking to it and asking it to lay a golden egg for me. Finally a golden egg drops down behind the goose. The egg is not heavy at all; must be gold plated rather than solid gold.

The other thing I wanted to try tonight was the bonus TOTM. Heading back into the house I shut the doors and draw the curtains over the windows. Out loud I announce that time is passing outside but frozen in here. We will be 100 years in the future. To focus my will I kneel on the ground, pressing the palms of my hands down into the carpet and repeating my intention.

After about half a minute I exit the room via the window. Straight away the difference is apparent. The view is of a city overlooking a bay. The sky is a mixture of deep blue, purple and pink, a beautiful sunrise. The city is full of buildings with sails - windmills spinning lazily in the breeze. Down on the bay are several yachts with white sails. In the sky are small bicycles that also have sails!

I fly around for a bit before spotting some people sitting on a rocky outcrop overlooking the sea. Thinking there is a part of the task that requires talking to someone I land and talk to a woman with long dark hair, asking her what she thinks of me travelling to their time. She just laughs, not in a cruel way; happy, as if my question is unexpected. I ask what year it is, and she asks if I mean "in dwarfish". Erm, yeah. She says something in an unusual sounding language.

After the conversation I decide to fly down around the bay. Following the line of the cliffs, there is a secluded beach filled with pools of water. An old man with a staff is standing alone on the beach. Recalling the next Christmas task, I ask him for a magical ring. He hands me what looks like a £2 coin with the middle removed. It is large, so I slide the ring onto my thumb. The world spins.

The ring has taken me back to the present day. I approach a building and see my friend NH sitting by the door. Inside are AB and MR, talking quietly about the day ahead. They are eating breakfast. I walk over to see what food is available, and wake up.

So is that a "full stack" or do I need the other basic and advanced tasks? (I'm just happy to have all the awesome wings!)

congratulation. sounds like a nice lucid you had.
for the stacking: at the moment you just need one basic and advanced so you should be good


i also got a coin similar to you when i asked for ring to make better fireballs (it worked like a charm in this one dream^^)

i tried to think of the bonus totm this night. i had a full on dream where i tried and summoned different fireballs and effects out of my hand but no spark of lucidity at all.. .
