Vhalar 70, Arc 720

That night, the Mortalborn woke to a world that was shrouded in shadows. He had decided to call the process of falling asleep and moving from the waking world to Emea only to find yourself in a lucid dream waking , even though it was not a completely accurate analogy. He had...

It was the first time Faith Augustin had dreamed for a long while. They had been to the barriers at the edge of the world, and there was no dreaming there. So, perhaps that was why, this night, she didn't dream lucidly, she wasn't aware of the fact that she was dreaming. No, on...
