1. Way Out to Sea
I can't remember where the dream starts but I find myself in a courtyard in a group of people and they all seem lost. And young still. A few older people are in charge and they watch us. The outside place is sunny. And surrounded by all kinds of buildings. It feels really enclosed.
Those who are in charge run this place. They are correct in their dealings, but not necessarily kind. Some kind of police. We are forced in smaller groups and divided up in different buildings. Every building is a different world and this courtyard is the place in between, the nexus from which you can reach any. The worlds are very different, although I can't know yet.
We go in one building, we are forced and pushed, goaded. So, we are inside, not sure what is to become of us. It feels like a concentration camp. Our freedom is taken and we want to escape. As a matter of fact I look for a way out continuously. I join a few young people I think I can trust and try to make it so that the government doesn't see it. There is always a girl with me that I trust. She wears green and I think she is smart. (Maybe Mavt.)
The room we're in is different, because there is a bit outside as well, although there is a ditch first, then green, then the wall, something like that. At one end of the room is a higher floor. From there, they oversee us. We try to find our way out of into the wilderness. Especially at night, but we don't get far.
Still in the same room, I have another dream intruding, as if I am on facebook and can see who is online, maybe ask help. But Mavt is on it and it looks as if she is online more than I remember. So, now, it must be easier to get in contact with her. But I don't, since I am in a difficult situation right now.
(Here I miss something.) Pizza for dinner? Bicycle? I drive around in the courtyard again?
At some point we, or I alone, go outside, and enter a different world. This is in the dark, hiding not to get caught. I'm in the middle of a road, just in a field, grass everywhere. Other people join me, join forces. Did I find them? How did I find them. There are about four of us. We lay down low, and still, on the road, so as not to get caught, because we hear voices in the neighbourhood. The one next to me is bigger than me and covered in white. I think he wears white cloth over his whole body, even his face, and he looks spooky. He really scares me, but he is more simple than me and wants me to tell him what to do. A girl is there too, she is the one who takes the watch, guards us.
I take these people with me.
In the meantime, I make some sort of long term plan to escape. I do this together with this girl, because I can trust her. I go out every day to scout.
At some point I go across the courtyard and enter a door. This leads into another world. Inside, too. And it looks like a basement. Dark and gloomy, the people here have no spirit anymore, and there is less police here, maybe none, so I take a few more risks.
The first time I scout and then go back to where I normally am. The hall I enter is big and empty. Young kids are working there. They don't see each other. I walk between them. There is something special about this place. Maybe my best chance to get away.
The next time, I stay there, and I go down the stairs, and I am reminded of the underthing (from a book, fantasy), and realize that is the reason why this place is not overseen. I don't go as far as I could, but in my mind's eye, I can see the end. There is a door, and behind the door is the sea. This whole complex borders at the sea, or the ocean. Though I am inside, I can see it. It smells like freedom.
(There are many bits and details about the dream I have forgotten already, but they main story is there.)
This dream really felt different than usual, which is why I call it a parallel world. It is not a particular lucid dream, nor a spirit dream, and not my own either.

The thought about the underthing might be because my brother and I talked about two particular fantasy books in which this plays a role, kingkiller and earthsea.
I also think that I was thinking about Mavt yesterday, wondering how I should get back in touch with her.
Interpretation.
ReplyDeleteDream 1. Maybe this relates to something that happened yesterday, which was 3 December. When I posted something on facebook, Mavt immediately responded, which I had not expected from her. It was a post about dreams too. Especially her excitement I could not foresee.
