Event Log: Dreamwalker the Second

[hadrielmods]

Who: All characters participating in the event
What: The event log for the Dreamwalker part 2 event
Where: In your dreams
When: October 14th-20th (the second log will go up on Oct 23rd, please keep the two weeks of the event separate!)
Warnings: All different kinds of dreams falling under the umbrella of Delight, Rage, Sorrow, and Hope.

This time, the weird stuff doesn't happen when you're awake- as a matter of fact, your waking hours are the normal ones. That's because you're forced to sleep by some unknown entity, getting more and more exhausted by the moment as night falls. Better make sure you're always around a soft pillow.

Once asleep, it doesn't get any less weird- your dreams will be influenced by one of the four gods that make up the first week. Something to make you smile, something to make you angry- or something that reminds you of your deepest regret or most vulnerable hope, they're all things that you're dreaming about now for some reason, no matter how hard you may try to pull away from them.

To make matters more complicated, there are others intruding on your dreams who definitely don't belong there, and while they may seem like manifestations at first, it becomes clear that these others are actually the consciousness of other members of Hadriel, getting some top quality exposure to your angriest, happiest, most sorrowful moments. Hope it doesn't get awkward when you see them tomorrow...

She nods, before grabbing something attached to the machine's side. It looks like a gun, but nothing like anything Firo would have ever seen. It's equipped with charges rather than bullets.

"All right. High road it is." Rey squeezes the weapon in her hand, rising to her feet. She hands the baton she was using earlier to Firo. "Probably better not to go unarmed on the way there."

[foundafamily]

"Thanks." He takes the baton and sets off beside her.

"What kinda prison is this anyway? I was in Alcatraz before, but this definitely isn't it. I mean, the guards there were stiff, but they were still human..."

Not whatever this hunk of junk is.

[circumitus]

Rather than turning her attention to Firo, Rey marches forward. Keeps her focus on the corridor before them, keen on any hint of possible obstacles that stand in their way.

Of course, nothing here poses a physical threat, but these dreams, like before, seemed to progress with a certain goal in mind. Escape has to be this one.

"Because it isn't Alcatraz," Rey comments, the old and forgotten prison a far cry from where they are now. "This is the sky prison that hangs over the synthetics' capital, Concordia. Was here before. Not as a prisoner."

[foundafamily]

"Only some of those words made sense to me."

A brief pause. "If you weren't a prisoner, what were you?"

Can't be anything good. In spite of himself, he finds his nerves suddenly antsy, as if she'll whirl around and put the cuffs right back on him.

[circumitus]

If he catches the gist of what she's saying, then it doesn't matter how much Firo understands.

"Stowaway," Rey replies simply. "This place is big. Real big. Lots of places to stay hidden in. Had to get some people out."

Don't worry, Firo. She's far from on their side.

[foundafamily]

Better than he'd feared. Satisfied, Firo nods and sets to scanning their surroundings.

"So why're you back now?"
