Party /// Cinna, Artemis, and Feliks
▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁
"Let's tell some stories!" Artemis shouted, trying to lighten the
mood. "Okay, then I'll start," Cinna said. "Once upon a time, in
a kingdom by a grand sea lived a noble knight named Marco."
Cinna continued on with the story as Feliks struggled to keep his
eyes open. He soon closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁
Feliks woke up on a chestnut colored horse. "How did I get here?"
Feliks mumbled to himself. He was covered head to toe in armour
and had a sword to his left side. "Marco, help my daughter was taken
by a dragon! You have to save her! Please do it!" a farmer pleaded
with Feliks as he ran towards him.
"I'm not Marco. I'm Feliks." Feliks said, probably confusing the
poor farmer.
"Yes, you are Marco because your horse has your name on its armour."
the farmer said, they walked away.
"Well, looks like quest time!" Feliks said. "Hey, where did the dragon
go?" The farmer point to the path. "Looks like I follow it then." Feliks
added. He did the command for the horse to pick up a trot. A forest
loomed ahead on path. The horse did a nervous neigh and started
backing away at the sight of the forest. "Easy, boy or girl? It's alright.
Just continue to trot." Feliks said, trying to get the horse calm. They
continued onto the forest. A small figure appeared out of the brush.
"Artemis, what are you doing here?" Feliks said. The Artemis like Kalon
stared at him before saying, "Who's this Artemis you are speaking
about? I'm Hera, the mage of this forest." She pulled out a wand from
the robes. She cast a spell that spooked Feliks's horse. "What was that
for?" Feliks complained.
"You didn't come here with my permission so you let me ride the horse
with you til the forest's end or die!" Hera shouted.
"Get on then." Feliks said. He helped Hera up. She immediately wrapped
her arms around Feliks to stay on. They rode on in completed silence.
"This is my stop," Hera said. "Thank you, Sir Marco, for the ride on your
horse. Goodbye, good luck finding this Artemis!"
Feliks nodded his head and trotted forward towards the mountain.
"Looks like we are here." Feliks said to his horse. They trotted up the
mountain side. The cave came into view and smoke came out. Feliks
left the horse outside the cave. "Dragon, put that Kalon down!" Feliks
shouted, charging in the cave. The dragon growled and picked up a
Cinna like Kalon. "I don't need saving, sir." the Cinna like Kalon said.
"I'm Feliks, who are you?" Feliks said. The Kalon struggled in the dragon's
grasp and bite it before the dragon dropped her. "Told you that I don't
need saving. I'm Hestia." Hestia said, she walked out of the cave
before saying, "Sometimes a fairytale doesn't need a hero to save the
maiden for it to be a fairytale." Feliks was confused by this saying. He
blacking out.
▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁
"The end!" Cinna said, finishing the story of Marco. "Feliks, you missed it!
The story was amazing!" Artemis said, she continued to talk on about
the exact dream Feliks had.
"Hey, that's the same exact dream I had, but you were Hera and Cinna
was Hestia." Feliks said.
"Guess you didn't miss the story after all! Also Hestia does sound like me
at points! How crazy is that!" Cinna said.

Prompt 15
Erebus & Janus
(180)
They had just settled down for the night. Sleep came quickly for them both, the days stress had been very tiring. Janus would simply sleep through the night, his mind a blank void this time.
Erebus wasn't so lucky. Night terrors tended to plague him on occasion and with the dangers of this adventure they we're becoming more frequent.

Opening his eyes Erebus found himself floating in a vast and open space. Floating amongst the crystal like stars he couldn't control his movement, having to travel with the path set for him. It was peaceful until a rumble echoed in a deep bass, vibrating his very being. Frantically he scanned the open area and spotted a beast. Its body blended with the inky blackness of the sky, visible by the way it blocked the stars behind it.
As it grew closer Erebus felt as if his chest would explode from his panicked heartbeat. When its jaws opened its dreaming prey bolted upright, eyes wide and shivering. Curling closer to Janus he knew that sleep wasn't visiting him anymore this night.

Day 15



Junkrat dreams of stealing a few crystals and selling them for gems.
They're probably not worth much, but let him dream...

[NightFlame22]

Even heroes need to sleep.

Cinna had finished her meal and was ready to make camp for the night. She didn’t have anything in the way of a tent or bed, but she had slept on the ground before and she’d do it again. She moved a decent distance away from the water and curled up on the cave floor, snuggling her bag like a teddy bear so nothing would get into it while she slept. It wasn’t the most comfortable arrangement, but she was worn out enough from constantly moving, and it wasn’t long before she was in a deep sleep.

Her dreamscape resembled the hidden clearing in the depths of the forest. Cinna entered it cautiously, well aware of what had happened the last time she had been called to this place. And yet, she longed to see the one who had ensnared her with her beauty, the one who had shown her the way to the earth crystal. She walked up to the pool, dipping her paws in the clear water. It was just as refreshing as she remembered it. A sigh escaped her as she looked around the clearing; it was empty except for her and the pool. She turned to leave, but a familiar voice made her stop.

“Something wrong, my little pet?” Althasia was relaxing on the shore, her head propped up on her arm as she gave Cinna a seductive smile. “Hmm… you must really miss me if you dared risking your free will to see me again~” She beckoned the baker over, and Cinna complied. Whether it was because she was being controlled again or not she didn’t know, but in all honesty, she didn’t care. She had missed Althasia ever since she stepped out of the forest clearing, and the empty caves with crystal-clear water only made her heart ache more.

The water nymph purred and began to stroke Cinna’s hair, her gentle touch sending warm tingles through her. Althasia grinned, her sharp teeth glinting in the dreamlight. Cinna was more than content to simply stay here, but a few questions buzzed in her head. “Althasia… was that you who gave me the fish? If so, how did you get here? You stayed behind in the forest…”

“It was indeed I who gave you the fish. As for how I got here, well,” her eyes twinkled mischievously, “I can't reveal all my secrets now, can I~?” She planted a light kiss on Cinna’s forehead.

The adventurer felt her cheeks warm, and she was only barely able to stammer out her next question. “Why didn't you come out and talk to me?”

Althasia’s grin softened into a gentle smile. “I'm sorry, pet. But if I were to show myself, you would be too captivated to go on. And we both know how crucial your quest is.” She lifted Cinna’s chin with a paw. “Don't worry, little pet. We always have your dreams~”

Cinna smiled a little, then blushed very deeply as Althasia leaned in for a slow, sweet kiss. Her whole being was electrified, and as they pulled away, she realized she was ever so slightly floating off the top of the water. The water nymph waved goodbye, and in the next moment she was lying on the stone again.

Cinna sat up and looked around for any sign that Althasia might have been there. Alas, there was none. She stretched and checked that everything was still in her pack, then prepared to leave.

It was only a dream, after all.

"streams of dreams"

it was getting darker as the sun was setting below the horizon. the crystals, instead of being completely lit up and all bright, were dimming down, making the cove less illuminated. the three kalons set up their tents for the night. they were disappointed that they couldn't sleep directly under the crystal coves, but they needed their tents for even a slight feel of protection. even though the scenery was breathtaking and welcoming, but maybe the inhabitants of it? not so much.

the kalon party snuggled inside their sleeping bags, getting in their usual sleeping positions. the crystals had set off a serene, tranquil aura to them, making it much easier to fall alsweep, unlike the other places they've been. in the forest, there were always sounds of twigs snapping and leaves rustling, which had left the three kalons on edge for most of the night. and in the lavalands, there was always the fear of lava. fire. being toasted alive in their sleep. but here, in the crystal coves, they had no bad encounters. yet. but they were willing to give it the benefit of the doubt.

the only sounds they heard now was the water scraping up against the rocks. it had a rough edge to it, but it was oddly soothing and acted like a white noise to lull the kalons to sleep finally.

everyone's dreams were instead like altered flashbacks. kyrou's dream took place in what looked like a school. kyrou stood there, his arm draped around a beautiful girl. kyrou pecked her cheek sweetly, before the girl waved her goodbyes and left. a couple of minutes later, he trailed the kalon's footsteps, and hid behind a locker. the sight before him wasn't surprising, as he had expected it for a while, but it still shocked him how such a sweet, nice, beautiful kalon could do a horrid thing like this. his girlfriend was laughing and talking with someone else. someone other than kyrou. the kalom batted her eyes flirtily before going in, her lips touching the other kalon's. kyrou hurriedly took a camera from his backpack, and snapped a picture while the scene was still happening. his lips twitched angrily. as he looked back at the photo, a tear drop ran down his face and fell onto the picture. and his dream ended there.

cain's dream started out at a house- somebody's house, as it definitely wasn't his. cain was standing with another girl, and he was wiping his eyes with the sleeve of his shirt. he recognized the girl as someone he dated a while back. there was no sound; he couldn't hear anything. but from the looks of it, he was yelling at the girl, and she was yelling back. cain's face was filled with pain, and he almost looked like he was pleading to the other kalon. tears were threatening to leave his eyes. however, the other kalon was just as in horrible condition as he was. she had large, dark circles under her eyes, and she looked infuriated. she pointed to the door. cain hesitated. the other kalon yelled something at him once again, and cain finally gave in, and dragged himself to the door. that was the end of cain's dream.

it was shelbie's turn now. her dream began inside a school, but inside in an auditorium instead of a hallway. she was giving out orders, pointing to other kalons and assigning them to different places. shelbie was always like this, even though she may not be the highest position, she would always be the one giving out directions and leading. another kalon stood up, and whispered something to shelbie, pecking her cheeks before pushing her away to the sidelines. shelbie was taken surprise by the push, and nearly fell but soon regained her balance. her ears twitched angrily. she stomped up to the kalon and slapped his face. hard. she yelled a couple of things to him before storming out the auditorium. and her dream faded to black.

the three kalons all shared the same problem- they all had love difficulties in the past but now that they were grouped together as a team, possibly by fate, they knew they didn't have to worry about the past now. who needs love when you've got friends who are always there for you?

Prompt 15
feat Briar and Liam

Briar, a very light sleeper, is woken up from her dreams of continued adventures by Liam's snores, so she proceeds to day(?)dream of how to cruelly wake up the peaceful Liam, who dreams of cats, candies, coffee, and winter.

[Mima]

Usually, Salvia's dreams were too dull for her to bother recalling. But tonight, for whatever reason, was different. Though she was still thickly draped in the witch's- was that proper?- anti-radioactive clothing, she had set up camp for the night at the very side of the cave, nestled in somewhere barely accessible between the enormous crystals that seemed to make up the walls.

It was still a blur, really, as all dreams are. There were creatures that didn't exist, plants she never remembered seeing before in her life, delicately flowing streams cutting not only through the ground below but through the air itself. Every time she turned away the world around her shifted, never seeming to make up its mind on what to show her next. She couldn't say it was a terribly unpleasant dream, other than the dull, nagging feeling that something was wrong in the back of her mind. But she ignored that. Those shadows clawing at her heels- those weren't really there, either. So she'd just keep exploring until her mind awoke.

[King Andre]

Anthony gazed up at sparkling ceiling of the cave, which twinkled with crystals like stars. It was so pretty to him, almost mesmerizing. The gentle running of water, and lapping of waves at the shore made the scene very peaceful and calming. Before he knew it, the next time he closed his eyes he awoken to a land that was,, very different from the reality he was used to. The sky was red and the moon had a human face, and he was walking down an emerald forest with the other two members of the party. "Wh, where are we?" He spoke up, with no immediate reply.

"We're am i?" He repeated the question, this time his grandfather Donn turning to him with a crooked smile and...a second head??? Anthony stopped dead in his tracks from the image, whihc made him wake in a cold sweat of horror.

"Jesus that was scary."
