      Thanks, ninja. That Rome dream was one of my favorite dreams ever. The experience was just pure damn awsome.

      The end of the world?

      22.03.2010
      4 Minutes (To Save The World) (DILD)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      I was outside my house, I looked at my suuroundings and questioned myself " Wasn't I in my bed just a momment ago? " I pinched my nose and became lucid. I wanted to go to the future, so I thought up of a random year. " 2033 " A portal appeared and I jumped right through. I was still outside my house, but no one's there. " I stand alone. " I heared a loud alert. A digital timer appeared at the sky. 04:00 Minutes and counting down. I saw comets falling. " I'm out of time, and I got 4 minutes, eh? " I started repeating it. Then the song started to play by itself. " What sould I do? I'm gonna die .. " I looked at the timer again and it reached 01:00 minute. " Shit, that was fast. " I forgot about the task, and thought that I'd save the world instead of destroying it. I flied up to space, I wanted to hit the comets, but I accidently dodged them. 3 ... 2 ... 1. Boom. The comets hit the earth, and everything turned to ash. " Ah, witness the end of the world, that's wwhat I wanted to do. " Everything started to fade to black and I woke up.

      Cool Half way there.

      Battle with the Sphinx ( DILD )

      Length : Long
      Vividity : Great

      There was a False Awakining where my alarm went on for me to go to school. It went on for hours and no one turned it off, I was annoyed, so I grabed it, got up, and threw it from the window. I felt that something was wrong, so I pinched my nose and became LuCiD. I flied to the sea, and across the ocean, till I reached Eygpt. I landed. Slaves were all over the place, they were doing what is supposed to be a 'rain dance'. They danced in circles till it rained, then they started to cheer and clap. The rain finished a minute later, and mud was all over the place, so, they started using the mud to build the pyramids. When they finished the first one, which was the biggest, they had a break. I wanted to see what will happen if I ruined it, so I touched it and it started to collapse. Everyone started looking at me, then ran away from me screaming in terror. I looked at the sphinx, which was apparently complete. It's eyes started glowing gold, and the ground was trembling, it started moving, till it got of the ground. Then there was a loud roar. It was really huge, I felt myself like a small fly infront of it. It was rushing towards me, I turned myself invisible and it went right through. It drifted back at me. I had to think fast, so I slammed the ground and the earth trembled. 5 fire pillars formed around me, it lept at me, touched the flames and backed out. I moved but accidently touched the fire. '' Ouch, hot! '' I waved my hands and it disappeared. '' Just turn to dust. '' I slammed the ground again and it slowly began turning to dust. Then I heared my alarm turning on so I woke up.

      61: 3.27.10; 6:29AM The Grand Lucid. (DILD)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      [...]

      Lucidity now "proven", I'd moved back toward the fountain and thought about the tasks of the year, and strained to remember all of them. I had written them down before going to sleep to avoid this exact thing happening, but hadn't memorized them. This lucid was strong and vivid, and I felt I could do any one of those tasks. The first that came to mind was to beat Neil Armstrong down the ladder, but I wasn't keen on doing that one. Instead, I figured I'd do the death of the dinosaurs task, seeing how I'd seen monsters by the fountain earlier.

      I arrived at the fountain and found that the environment changed entirely, to a barren stone field of gray, under an overcast broken-looking sky. Dinosaurs were roaming about, and there were fires lit all over the place indicating that something was very wrong - as in, an asteroid collision with earth was imminent. There were flames in the sky as well, and because the overcast sky was broken I could see a bit of outer space. In the sky coming toward the earth, where I stood, was a black fiery ball I understood was THE asteroid, very far away still. I knew I had to watch that hit to complete the task.

      The fires I'd seen around me had gotten much larger and were moving around rather quickly, as if dinosaurs themselves were running around on fire
      (they weren't, by the way, it just seemed that way) toward other dinosaurs. There were fewer dinosaurs now, and the asteroid had moved to a different place in the sky, now much much larger than before, still coming right at me. I kept imagining it being drawn closer to the earth so it would crash, terrible as it sounds.

      At this point, all I saw was fire and explosions, as the asteroid had finally reached where I was standing. The fires cleared from my vision and I'd turned around as if nothing happened, and found the barren wasteland void of dinosaur life. The asteroid had hit as far as I could tell (it was coming right at me!), and yet there was no sign of damage to the environment behind where I'd stood - the only destruction must have been right where it hit and nowhere else, 'cause I didn't look at the impact site, just looked at the entire environment around me.

      [...]
      That qualify?

      Sorry for the double post, but I have an attempt/completion(?) to report and ask about. I know I'm always unsure of every task I complete because I'm not sure I did it right, but here's my attempt at the dawn of man/show how to light a fire task. I think the location disqualifies me on this one. Should I go back for a second attempt at this task?

      65: 4.1.10; 8:13AM Part 2: Back To The Past, Like In Back To The Future. (DEILD)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      I had mostly woken up from the last dream and knew I wanted to become lucid, so I forced myself completely out of the non-lucid dream and into a DEILD, knowing I was in control of myself enough to be able to do so. After a smooth and excellent transition into the lucid, I found myself driving in first person perspective on a road in a city I wasn't familiar with. To make sure I was lucid, I swung my left arm up and out from my side and punched where the "escape" key would be on a computer keyboard; a black keyboard had been generated in front of me for this purpose. I called this the "console" key, and hitting it brought up a window from my previous dream. (See previous dream for description of this window.)

      Even though the console was up, I didn't use it. I instead kept driving, quite fast, on the road ahead of me, and thought of the task of the year once again, recalling that before I'd gone to bed I'd looked over the list and chosen to do the "dawn of man" task during my next lucid. Since I was driving, there was only one logical way to go back in time: Back To The Future style!

      I kicked up the speed of the car and raced toward an oncoming car with the intent to jump into the past before the collision. As the shiny blue car came at me fast, I braced and charged full-speed forward.

      When the jump completed (somehow I kept my eyes open through the entire thing!), I was still driving, and still in a city, but everything was different. I had to find a cave of some sort to find the first people to show them how to make fire, and drove around looking for one. The road turned off to the right, and went downward into the ground, which led me to an area of the city where there was a garage door, silvery metal and made up of horizontal bars, with an awning above it. I figured the first humans would be here, so I got out of the car - I just went third person and saw myself standing there without a car anywhere in sight.

      I saw a couple people standing there, very clearly of the dawn-of-man era, and began collecting up things around me to show them how to make fire. I was about to just spark something to light up a pile of trash when I figured, I don't need to do it this way, I just need to show them how to make fire! I imagined myself blasting the trash as if I were holding a flamethrower, lighting up everything around me. There were three people here now, and each smiled and clapped at the sight of the fire.

      I suddenly looked like Homer Simpson as I continued lighting things on fire, and some character I didn't recognize I assumed was from the Simpsons as well showed up and said a couple things, one of which made me laugh hysterically in my lucid. That was a first, and it did sound like me despite my appearance,
      and I made myself wake up afterward from laughing so much, figuring someone in the house might have heard me. Would've loved to have seen myself during that lucid to see if I did laugh!

      03/32/10 Task of the Year: Neil Armstrong

      MoSh and I were now in a rather small space. It was the interior of a space capsule. I looked over and saw an astronaut in the process of climbing out a hatch. Through the hatch I could see stars. I went over to the hatch, pushed myself off of the helmet of the astronaut, did a somersault in the air, and landed on my feet on the moon.

      "Ha!" I said, looking back up at Neil Armstrong, "The first human on the moon is a WOMAN! Eat moon dust!" I summoned up a flag and planted it in the ground.

      "What on Earth?" Neil Armstrong said.

      "Hey!" I said, "We're not on Earth, remember? I am claiming this spot to be the future home of the tower and the biodome."

      MoSh stepped out of the capsule and stepped onto Neil Armstrong's helmet. He stood there and looked down at me. He said if I was plotting the location of the tower, we were in the wrong place. This wasn't where the tower was built. I told him I knew it wasn't the exact spot, what I was doing was just representative of claiming an area of the moon on which to build the biodome and the tower. MoSh jumped down off of Neil Armstrong's head and landed right beside me on the moon. He looked back up at the astronaut on the ladder. Neil Armstrong was talking into his transmitter. He was saying he wasn't alone on the moon… there were two other people already here! Who had somehow stowed away on the rocket… but we didn't have any space suits on… so how was that possible? There must be an atmosphere on the moon after all… It looked like he might take his helmet off. I floated up and told him not to be retarded… this was a dream, our dream (I indicated MoSh and myself), but he needed the helmet. Neil Armstrong agreed it must be a hallucination. He climbed back into the capsule.

      This task is great! I am in!
      I already had the end of the world dream, some six weeks ago. Here's the experience:


      I was in a bar, drinking some beer. My friend had given me a mp3 player as a gift yesterday, and in the dream I thought to check it out again. I took out the player, and was examining it. Then suddenly my eyes fell upon my fingers, and they counted to three! Two of them were simply not there, only empty holes for them. Then I became lucid realizing this RC. Apparently, I remembered the Apocalypse documentary I had watched right before sleeping, and I thought, what would it be like to actually be during the Apocalypse? And then I hear a resounding explosion. I look out of the window of my house ( dont know how I got there ) and see all the houses and shops shaking violently and crumbling. Then there spreads this huge fire, coming towards my direction. I try to run away ( again I dont know how i got to the ground, my house is six floors up! ) but a voice tells me that it is useless to run. I am subconscious and know that it is a dream, and I can feel everything I am touching, but I just can't stop the apocalypse. Suddenly, a huge hole opens directly below my feet, and I fall into it, falling for a LONG time, and never hit the ground, and woke up sometime later.

      That was one of my most vivid experiences. Oh, and can we complete the tasks in random order or do we have to follow the order in which they are listed? Because otherwise I would have to re-dream the apocalypse. O_O

      04/03/10 The End of the World Task

      Note: As I have for the past two nights, I fell asleep and failed to slip into my WILD. I actually did remember a couple of dreams, however, and my intent must have been good enough, as I completed a task of the year…

      I was in a city. I didn't see any identifying marks, but I had the idea I was in New York City. I was on the street. I went into a small café on the side of the road. It was a nice little place, a mom-and-pop type place set up to look very homey and comfortable.

      I sat down at a table just to rest. Without even having made an order, a friendly older woman brought me a big slice of apple pie with ice cream on top. She told me to eat up while it was fresh. I told her I hadn't ordered anything, so maybe it was someone else's. I didn't see anyone else in the diner, but I knew I hadn't ordered any. She said the pie is something they give to everyone who visits the diner. She said she wouldn't take no for an answer, so dig in to the pie. I ate the pie. It was delicious. I left a sizable tip on the table. I figured it would cover the pie. I was glad I found some cash in my pocket. I left the table.

      I walked through the diner and found an exit door in the back. There was a flight of stairs that led up. I followed the stairs up. I wasn't sure if I should be there or not. I found a door that exited onto the roof. I stood out on the roof in the sunshine. It felt good. I'm not sure what made me think of it, but I decided to do a reality check. I pinched my nose and found I could still breathe. I was dreaming! I became lucid…


      I stood there on the roof, wondering what my next goal should be. I was thinking I might go up and fly. I was just about to do that when something caught my eye. I turned to my right and saw something in the distance. It was a mushroom cloud!

      Had there seriously just been a nuclear explosion over there? The explosion looked far enough away that I would be safe. It was still quite a sight to see. I turned away from it after the mushroom cloud dispersed. I looked back at the city. I reminded myself that this was a dream. I wondered what was going on with the nuclear attack. I was thinking about how I could use this dream when I saw another rocket fly low over my head. It was about to hit, just a few blocks away from me… now that one was too close. I knew I was dreaming, but I didn't think I could get to the rocket in time to stop it. I heard a boom as it hit.

      For just a minute I thought maybe it had just been a normal missile… but that thought passed quickly. The blast was deafening… and blinding. A wall of fire expanded from the site of the blast. It was like everything was moving in slow motion. The wall of blazing hot flames came towards me and then washed over me. I could not see nothing but brightness. I could feel a hot wind blowing over me. But nothing more. No searing heat. I was not being burned. I had expected my flesh to be instantly incinerated off of my bones, and then my bones to turn to dust… but that didn't happen. The wave of fire seemed to be there forever, but finally it passed. I was now hovering in the air. If I'd had any doubt I was dreaming, surviving a nuclear blast and now flying convinced me it was a dream.

      I looked at the buildings. Strangely, most of them were still standing. I flew over to one of them and touched the wall. The spot crumbled to ash. That caused a chain reaction until the entire building had collapsed. The buildings were not ok. There was just a mere shell of what they had been. A shell that would crumble at the slightest disturbance. I landed on the street and walked down it for a ways. The buildings around me were shattered by a helicopter. I waved at the chopper. I know someone looked right at me. He pulled out a gun and shot at me. WTF? I flew up to the chopper and dragged the creep out of it. He was staring at me in shock. I asked him why the fuck he was shooting at me. I said the nuclear war was his fault, wasn't it? I was flying him around and showing him the mess he had made out of everything. Back down into the diner where the nice old woman had been. He obviously didn't give a shit. I fired a blast of fire in his face and disintegrated his face.

      I left the diner, causing it to collapse as I left. I flew down the street. More and more of the buildings were collapsing. It was starting to look more and more like the aftermath of a nuclear blast as I would have expected it to look. As I was flying down the devastated street I was thinking this was the end of the world. Soon every place would be destroyed, and there was no way I could act fast enough to do anything about it. The world would now be a live rendition of the game Fallout 3.

      I saw someone on the ground up ahead of me. I flew towards that person. It was a woman. I was not close enough to recognize her. She was flying now. We were both flying through the devastated city. How had she survived? Was she another dreamer? Someone with super powers? I flew after her, wanting to know what was going on. I thought I was going to catch up with her but then I woke.

      04/11/10 Coliseum Battles

      We were now outside the coliseum. This was where we would do the fight for the TotY. I asked Markus if he still wanted to complete a task of the year. He said sure. We went into the area where they admit warriors. The men at the entrance looked at us and one of them asked if Markus was fighting alone. He said no, I was fighting with him. The man tried to stifle a laugh, but failed. Then he asked if Markus was sure he wanted to take a woman in there. The other guy said Markus was probably looking for a valid way to ditch the old lady. Markus looked like he would like to start the killing right there. After the two men realized we were serious, they took a more serious attitude. One of them told us we would be fighting a group of violent criminals looking to win their freedom in a gladiator match. He said those people wouldn't hesitate to kill one of us, so we shouldn't hesitate to do the same. He was looking at me when he said that as if assuming I was the one who would have problems killing someone. A group of unpleasant looking individuals dressed in gladiator gear moved past us and into another entrance.

      As Markus and I went into the arena the guards at the entrance handed us swords. I teleported mine away and formed my Witchblade sword. We got into a sword battle with the opponents. We got in a sword battle. We were outnumbered, but they didn't seem especially skilled. My Witchblade armor formed under my Assassin robes and was protecting me very effectively. So we fought, dodged, parried, attacked… until I found myself back to back with Markus. There were three enemies left. I attacked the gladiator in front of me. He deflected my sword with his sword, but he was unprepared for the hidden blade I had on my left arm. I took him out with the hidden blade. I turned around just in time to see the final enemy, who was attacking me from behind, go down with a throwing knife stuck in his throat. The crowd was going wild.

      4/12/10 Battles in Rome

      This is just an excerpt of my dream journal: Legends from the Battlefield. I was so happy that I got it on my first try!

      We had somehow made our way to the Coliseum and I hadn’t even noticed. I was thinking that we should go see what the gladiator fights are like when Raven turned to me, “You still wanted to do a task of the year right?” I looked at her almost confused when it suddenly dawned on me. “Right, from dreamviews. Sure.” We walked up toward the Coliseum when I heard someone shout. “You two, want to fight?” We nodded.

      We were in line to fight when a large group of slaves/gladiators passed by us. I overheard that it was the group that we would be fighting. They seemed easy enough to take down just by their looks, after all Raven and I would have an advantage, we were dreaming. We walked through the gates and into the arena. They gave us a sword each, and then unlocked the gladiators from each other. I looked over to Raven, “Going to be okay?” She nodded and began her attack. I focused on the gladiator nearby me. Soon I found Raven at my back. Back to back we faced the last three opponents. I reached down and grabbed a second sword from the nearby corpse. I swung at one of the gladiators and he jumped back. I ran him through with my other blade. I turned to see how Raven was faring and was surprised to see her on the ground. She had eliminated one gladiator, but the other was getting ready to harm her. I dropped my swords and grabbed at my pouch. I pulled a throwing dagger out and threw it at the gladiator. He fell down, the dagger sticking out of his throat. “Are you okay?” I asked Raven as I helped her up. She dusted herself off. “I am fine; they just caught me off guard… somehow.” She looked puzzled that she had been caught off guard. “Well we won.” I pointed to the dead bodies all around. “Wasn’t there something else you wanted to do?” I questioned. Raven nodded and opened up another portal. We teleported through and I… can’t remember what happened after that, but I know I didn’t wake up.

      04/12/10 The Assassins and the Holy Grail

      I found the chest was locked. I used the Harry Potter spell alohamora to unlock it. I opened it. It was a velvet lined chest with an indentation in it that was just the right size for a cup that was in there. It was a relatively plain cup, looking more like the one from the Indiana Jones movie than a fancy golden treasure. I lifted the cup carefully from the chest. I looked around again. I could see the four Templars disappearing into the distance, the other horses following behind. I was now alone with the holy grail and the chest, with one horse standing near me.

      I looked closely at the grail. What was I supposed to do with it? Oh, yeah. Drink from it. I looked around and didn't see any possible source of water. But wait, this is a dream… I didn't have to find water, I could just summon it. I summoned a soda, a Coke, ice cold. I poured some coke into the grail and drank from it. There. The task of the year was done. I summoned some water and washed the sticky out of the grail before carefully placing it back in the chest and closing it.

      24 April, 2010 The Grail mess-up..

      Yeah! Completed another one!
      Lately, I have been forgetting to do tasks in a dream, but last night I remembered, and gave it a shot. So here's the dream.

      Dream Side Comments

      I had an FA after waking up from a dream.I looked around my house and saw my room, exactly as it is. Before I went to bed, I told to myself, if I am in an FA, I will remember to do the TotY. Thats why I realize I have to do this task. I exit my house through the window, and start to fly, by shape shifting and growing a pair of wings. I fly low, for the fear of losing lucidity, and do some clarification techniques along the way. Now that my vision is perfectly clear, I concentrate on boosting my speed. I somehow fly to Rome, and see a normal church, nothing special. I am not a Christian, but I think, What the heck, it's just a dream! So I go in through the door, and start looking for DCs who can tell me where the Holy Grail is supposed to be. I encounter some weird DCs, , but then I finally find an old man all dressed up like he was the leader there. So I go to him, and ask him, "Excuse me, but could you tell me where the Holy Grail is?" He says, "The quest for the Holy Grail is an index of the most complicated plots co-occurring within a series of brilliant minds combined to form a particulate of moisture." This is an exact quote. I reply, 'That doesn't even make sense!" He replies, " A bear must be bound before it can swim, so be it." "But that doesn't make sense either! Can't you at least point to where it is?" He point to a perfectly normal wall, and says, "What appears is not what it is." Finally, something sensible. I say thanks and run up to the wall, and start tapping it. It sound like it is not solid, but there something behind it, like a passage. So I look in my pocket, and find a grenade (what??) and place it near the wall and wait for it to blow up the wall. Somehow I didn't run away, and the blast didn't even hurt me. I see a dark passageway, lit only by flaming torches. I follow the passage way to a door and upon opening it, I see and even older room, which is lit only by a single torch. I cross over to the other side, and see something like a safe in the wall. There was a notice on the wall beside it, reading "The key is hidden in this sentence, "All animals are equal, but some are more equal than others. Enough with stupid quotes! I look in my pocket again, and take out a laser pen, the type you see in movies that can cut a safe by a laser beam. After a long and tiring search for batteries in the old room, I finally locate them in a small but visible hole in the ground. At last, I turn on the damn thing, and bust my way through the safe. Now I see a glass cup, something like a trophy, with the words HOLY GRAEL engraved on the bottom, and enclosed in a thin glass case. i carefully smash the glass case, and somehow, there is a bottle of fresh and cold water beside it now. I hurriedly put the water in the grail, and drink from it. What a refreshing.....poof! fall onto the ground, unconscious. Thats the last thing I remember of the dream. Well, completed the TotY, but didn't get to enjoy the drink after all the hard work I put in.

      Thats two tasks completed, the crusade one and the end of the world. 2 down,.........uh.....SIX to go?
      'The petals dance through the wind,
      The crimson blood shimmers on the snow,
      The shattered heart weeps of hidden sorrow.
      And over a pure white sky,
      rises a black moon.'

      I'm not ready for The Task of the Month yet. But I do wish everyone else luck. When I get more experience into Lucid Dreaming then I'll probably try to do one.

      Another one! Quote from my DJ.

      Quote Originally Posted by lucidmax15895
      Completed another task of the year last night. I woke up in the middle of the night, and had barely moved. So I tried to FILD, moving my fingers very slowly. This helped me remain in a conscious state. Soon, I started to feel vibrations or waves going throughout my body. I had experienced SP before, and was not too bothered by this feelings. I could see some Chinese or perhaps Japanese characters moving about me. I recognized only one of them, the symbol of fire. It was in Chinese. I couldn't figure out the rest of them. They started to revolve around me, going faster and faster until they were a blur. My body was falling into it, and I started to shudder violently. After a minute or so, it stopped. I could see nothing. I was in a black void. I thought of where I want to go, and remembered the ToTY thanks to the MILD I had done before sleeping. I closed my eyes, and imagined a pre-historic forest, with dinosaurs and wild tress and reptilian birds.
      I slowly opened my dream eyes, and found myself on a grassy mountain. It was cool here. I could see the sun in the distance, but it looked different somehow. Perhaps smaller and a little brighter.
      A large bird comes at me from nowhere, screeching and clawing at me. What a nuisance. I concentrate on forming an invisible force field around me. I was successful, the bird crashes into it and falls, before going away in anger. I look around and concentrate on the environment, to clarify the dream. The longer I look, the more there is to look. There are many wild trees around, and I can see a beautiful blue lake in the distance. The air smells of nature, and the environment is filled with exptic sounds, some of which I cannot identify. The mountain I am standing on is quite high, and I notice a cave behind me. I use the inside-the-cave method, the ancestor of behind-the-door, to bring out Leona. I call out for her, and she comes out. She is wearing a trekking suit, one fit for a hike. I ask her, "Well, how am I supposed to complete the TotY now? I am in dinosaur age, but there is no meteorite."
      "Well, why don't you cause the meteorite to hit?"
      "Eh, I can do that?"
      "*sigh* What an idiot."
      She picks up a pebble, and throws it high into the air. She raises her hands, and around her hands appear a weird lettering, inside a ring. Kinda cool. She says "Enlarge!" and time freezes. Now she points her palms at the pebble, and move her palms away from each other, increasing the space between them. The pebble enlarges considerably, and she drops her hands, which breaks the spell, unfreezing time. The pebble falls to the ground below me, except now it is as big as a large truck.
      "Cool! How'd ya do that?"
      "Just do what I did. Remember to use your aura for the spell, or you won't be able to do it."

      PS I don't believe in "Ki" or "Chakra" or "Inner Energy" or whatever it is, so I always use the word aura for it, which more or less satisfies me.
      I take another pebble, but I can't just toss it in the air. I need it to go into space and THEN hit the earth. So I summoned up this gun I was watching on a documentary, that can send bullets into space. It looks like an alien gun, with a dark black body and electric blue patterns on it. I insert the pebble, that has somehow become bullet shaped. I load, and fire it toward the sky. The pebble get smaller and smaller, until it is a point on the bright blue sky.
      Focus, I thought. Whenever I use spells, I gather my energy into my hands, and then work it from there. Therefore I concentrate it into my wrists and palms, and my familiar bluish silver and black aura starts to some out of my hands like a small fire. Instantly, there appears the same ring around my wrists, with some wierd symbols revolving around it. The ring is black inside with silver lettering and outlines. Suddenly, time stops. The wind stops blowing, the trees stop waving, the birds freeze in mid-air. It seems as if it is all one big painting.
      Now the pebble is stopped somewhere in space, I can modify it's size. A rectangle appears around the pebble, with pointers/handles at the sides, like the one you get in picture editing softwares. Just drag those little things around and the image will enlarge. There is a similar concept here. I use my hands and point at the pebble, and spread the apart, so that the pebble is enlarged. I continue until it will expand no longer. Now it looks like a real meteorite. I drop my hands, and time unfreezes. The meteorite starts to fall towards the ground. In a matter of seconds, it is very close to earth. But something is not right. Oh yeah! It is not on fire! What good is a meteorite without fire? I get a sudden idea from reading a manga. I draw the Kanji symbol for fire in the air, and my fingers leave a hot red trail, so that the symbol is brightly shining in air. I kinda "throw" the symbol at the meteorite, or basically, cause the symbol to race towards the meteorite, and collide with it. The second it does, the whole meteorite erupts in flames. The flames are of abnormal size, and I can feel the heat from them, even kilometers away.
      Leona makes an ice shield around us, to protect us from the heat. The meteorite is raging towards the earth. There is a deadly silence. Every living creature seems to have stunned, looking speechless at the large ball of flame. It is very close now, probably just a matter of seconds. Leona shouts, "Let's get out or we will burn too!"
      "No, you go! I'll stay! I have to watch it hit!"
      "Idiot. Well, I'll just go by myself, I am not fond of dying from a fake meteorite created by you."
      She crouches, and touches the ground with her palm. A circle appears there, a dark black one. It starts from her wrist, and expands around her. "See ya! Or not..." she says, and jumps into the circle, teleporting to who-knows-where.
      The meteorite is about to hit now. The heat burns up the trees and the bushes around me. The ice shield is still intact, but only just. With a resounding explosion, the meteorite hits. The blast was deafening. I felt the shockwave of it travel miles away to where I stood. Then came the heat of it. The ice shield couldn't hold on much longer. The meteorite throws up a mountain of dust, rock and ash, that form a mushroom cloud. The shield breaks. Now I feel the full heat of my own flames. So real. I can feel my body charring. It was agonizing. I couldn't do anything. And after some time, that felt like hours, I lose consciousness, and wake up.

      Lucid max thanks a lot for the post. A fun read ! "The quest for the Holy Grail is an index of the most complicated plots co-occurring within a series of brilliant minds combined to form a particulate of moisture." - Lmao... I never can remember exact quotes like that. It's so funny to look back on the nonsense that DC's display.

      Although I didn't complete a task of the year I thought I'd share that I witnessed the end of the world in a dream last night. It started with me witnessing four great (seemingly important) pillars falling down which was later broadcasted on every news station... Then all the sudden I saw a planet coming toward earth at a scary speed. I asked who ever was beside me "Is that jupiter" "nope, Saturn." I then (somehow) watched saturn fall on the earth and bounce right off. "we're gonna die aren't we?" I said to my little sister who now happened to be beside me. "I don't want to die" she cried as the crust of the earth started to rise up and crumple. I then saw saturn coming back down and jupiter coming from the other side. I then felt death. The feeling of death was an intense presence followed by my entire conciousness getting sucked up like a vaccume through a black tunnel into the infinitely small speck of light. If that was my real death I'd be pretty certain there is an afterlife.
