-START-
Your eyes slide shut and you slowly drift off to sleep. When you open them again, you find yourself staring up at a golden ceiling.
Drykka
You look down, are you tied to an altar for ritual sacrifice?
@DM
Nope, you're in your recuperacoon, wearing a golden nightgown.
Or at least, a gold version of your recuperacoon.
Drykka
You examine your new garb closer.
@DM
It's covered in intricate stitching with a moon on the chest. It actually looks pretty regal.
Drykka
Finally, vestments worthy of your station. You crawl out into your room, or, at least, what it's become, and look for anything else unusual.
@DM
The room looks exactly the same, except everything is made of gold, and there is no door. Instead, you have a large open window on the wall.
Drykka
You peek out the window, are you still located in the dark mountains of spotlightown?
@DM
You definitely are not. You're at the top of a tower, looking down at a gorgeous, packed city made of the same gold stone. Far below, totally white people? Creatures? You can't tell. Walk around and go about their lives. You can hear the chatter of a crowd not far away.
Drykka
Perfect. You wave to the things, and watch as they wander the city.
@DM
They don't seem to notice you, you're much too far above.
Drykka
If only there was something to do in your new hive, located quite the distance away from anything but itself.
@DM
The golden hive has all the stuff that your own hive has. And, hey, this is probably a dream. What could you do in a dream?
Drykka
If you're going to lucid dream, you're going to fly through the dreamvistas of your head, of course. You imagine yourself levitating a bit off the ground.
@DM
After just a moment's thought you find yourself floating a bit off the ground.
Drykka
You try to fly out of your hive, just to find out what's holding it up.
@DM
You fly out the window and look back at your hive, and find that it's simply just a very tall tower over the city. Looking around you see four more towers.
Three*
Drykka
You move to investigate the other towers, wondering what wealth they could hold.
@DM
There's one to the north, one to the east, and one to the west. Which one do you start with?
Drykka
The west, for a probably symbolic reason that will show itself in the future.
@DM
You fly to to the tower and poke your head in the window. You find another bedroom, but this one has a bed in it. On the bed there's a girl.
@DM
You recognize her as Cyril.
Drykka
You fly in, at least the intruder into your dreamvistas is someone you would have invited if they had asked.
@DM
Yep you fly in, everything continues to be exactly the same as before you flew in.
Drykka
Right, you fly out and check out the tower to the north of yours.
@DM
You fly to the north and look in that tower. Inside you find a bedroom littered with random cooking stuff and a human boy sleeping in the bed
Drykka
You then fly to the east, wasting no time but the time spent looking at that loser.
@DM
You peek int he final tower and find a room that for some reason is actually pretty small and looks like the inside of a tent? There's another boy sleeping in a gold sleeping bag in the middle of the floor.
Drykka
Finally, you fly down to bless the locals with your presence, though, you're probably the most local of all the locals here, being, y'know, the being that created and houses this place.
@DM
there are a handful of people on the ground where you land, and they seem rather startled to see you. They stop and stare, some muttering to each other.
Drykka
You wave to the beings, they don't seem as afraid as you had hoped. Well, at least they love you, probably.
And if they don't, really, who's the bearer of unlimited psionic power around here.
@DM
They hesitate before one of the bolder ones waves back.
Drykka
You speak, as is in your nature, though, it really wouldn't help much if this was a dream, there's nothing to influence that you can't through sheer willpower, it's just nice to have the imaginary company. "greetings, i am Drykka, slayer of several, possibly billions, anD i probably DiD some other significant stuff,"
@DM
They look at each other before the bolder one asks you how long you've been awake.
Drykka
"well, i mean, on anD off for about 19 sweeps? i Don't really care to check,"
← S8DM has quit (Quit: http://www.kiwiirc.com/ - A hand crafted IRC client)
@DM
He tilts his head and wonders why he's never heard of you coming out of your tower before, then.
Drykka
"you've only existeD for like, an hour, tops, that must be an incomprehensible amount of time for you, isn't it?"
@DM
He looks surprised and states he has no ideae what you're talking about.
Drykka
"you exist as much as this particular instance of myself exists, the only Difference being that i am aware of my state as an aspect of a malleable thoughtscape,"
@DM
At this point a few of the others have seemingly gotten bored and wandered off. You're still getting looked at like you're crazy.
Drykka
You attempt to purge the confused being from your dreamvista, and move on with your dream.
@DM
Absolutely nothing happens.
Drykka
"this barely lenDs creDence to the 'you exist' theory, but i'll listen to it for the moment, i have only crawleD forth from my recuperacoon at most an hour ago,"
"here, i mean"
@DM
He nods slowly before pointing off down a street to the south, and informs you that there is a festival currently going on if you would like to join it.
→ S8DM has joined
Drykka
You fly out to watch over the festival, hopefully it's about something more important than you waking up here.
@DM
You find the festival without much effort, and see rows of stands and little white carapacians milling about in the square. in the center is a large pole with ribbons hanging down.
Drykka
You gently float down in front of some of the things, explain who you are, exactly, and ask where you are, at all, like, what city you're in.
@DM
It takes a little bit but a couple finally talk to you, informing you that you're on the secondary moon of Propit.
Drykka
You're getting a bit tired, maybe you should fly back to your towerhive and sleep/awaken.
