what are they fighting for? [500 word limit]
It was two years ago when they finally told me I had the dream disease.
Kalons with it react too strongly to the dream potion- they dream violently, lengthily, and sometimes- their dreams affect them, or others, in real life.It's dangerous. The dream potion already has quite random effects on what the dream becomes, taking the waking moments and swirling them into a strange and easily forgotten tale. That means dreams can get scary, and with the dream disease, sometimes the damage you or others take in dreams becomes real.
The first time we noticed anything was when I had my first nightmare. I woke up covered in burn wounds from the dragon I had dreamed. From there it only got worse. But finally, we found out that the condition had a name. The downside? It still has no known cure.
But that doesn't scare me. That's why I'm studying science so vigorously. That's why I'm spreading what I know about it on social media. I'm fighting it with all the tools I have at my disposal. And someday, somewhere in the future, I hope- no, I know- the others who have it, and I- we're going to win.
