Zheng Yi's Diary Entry:
Today I decided to take it easy with the adventuring. I went to the tavern as usual for some ice-cold beer and then headed back to my rented room. The place is quaint, big enough to not feel claustrophobic, but not enough to feel grand. I retire for the night, hoping to catch some good quality sleep.
I suddenly "woke up" and found myself in a grand hallway filled with statues. Though they aren't as magnificent as Michelangelo's David that I had the chance of seeing up close before (but couldn't steal), they are truly beautiful. In this hallway, I was joined by Lusio, Necrass, Clothilde, Abdul, whom I've never met, and Daichi, a familiar face. Lusio and Clothilde told us that we're actually stuck in a dream state and we had to go through a series of challenges to get out, and the best chance at survival was sticking together.
Unfortunately, we separated anyway as the group couldn't agree on a direction. I decided to follow Lusio because he seemed to know his way around, and he said he knew how to get us through this. Though his armour looks like it's made out of gaming consoles like the ones my children had, he did seem like a dependable person.
As we were walking through this hallway filled with broken mirrors, I accidentally glimpsed into some of the shards on the floor, and I saw some of my dreams coming true. I could tell it was a deceit of some sort, as Lusio had warned, so I ignored it and continued on. As we arrived at a dining room, we dashed on and across the table. However, as I was finding my footing, I accidentally looked into one of the paintings, and it made me go mad. Lusio pushed me through the doorway, and we ended up in a hall with a grand staircase and a stained-glass window.
There were two little girls there, but the whole group ignored them. I could feel that I wasn't in the right state of mind, but the little girls reminded me of my kids, and I felt like I needed to talk to them. All of a sudden, a giant spider with an eerie face appeared, and it was staring right at me! But the others didn't see the spider!
I couldn't help but freak out, fear completely taking over me. I wasn't sure what happened after that. I just knew someone was pulling me along as we escaped and ran back to a safe spot. I think Lusio left the group to find Abdul, who was separated, while Necrass and Daichi brought me back to the main hall and then up to the Grand Library.
I just remembered freaking out the whole time, like I'm mentally breaking. It took me a while to calm down, and by the time I did, the whole party was together along with a woman named Ultrick. I realised that there were pillars powered by something and a portal right in the middle of the library. Everyone messed around a little bit until, all of a sudden, Ultrick disappeared while standing in the middle of the portal!
We tried to figure things out. I went into a frenzy trying to destroy some of the books, but my Scimitar just went through them. I then investigated the entire library by poking at the books and scrolls with my Scimitar, making sure not to touch them with my hands. I suddenly heard a click, and Abdul, who was at the portal, went missing.
We attempted to get him back, but Daichi had to touch one of those pillars to send him back, and the magic pillars somehow didn't work anymore. We headed back to the main hallway, and Abdul decided to try looking for the little girls again. He came back later, not finding the girls but apparently meeting with some type of angelic being. I guess it really was a dream because I could only dream of meeting an angel myself.
We all suddenly had a splitting headache, and then Daichi, Abdul and Necrass disappeared. Lusio said they've woken up from this dream. I was about to panic because why didn't the two of us wake up? But Lusio revealed that he had something that could help us wake up. We closed our eyes, and I woke up in my bed.
The sun rays shone through my dusty window, slightly glaring. It must be close to noon at this point. I could still sense the fear, nerves and panic in my system. I had to wash my face just to help freshen myself up a bit-wash away the icky feeling.
I'm not sure just how real this dream was. Did I astral project somewhere? Was it just another case of lucid dreaming? Or well... it was just another nightmare, I suppose. Sigh... I really don't wish to have another dream like this again. But I do wonder if I'll meet all those new characters in real life. Are they real people, or are they just some made-up ones in my subconscious? I wonder if it'll be weird for them if I "knew" them?
I need another beer.
