Fortress at Sea

1. Five Crystals

Something about having five personal crystals ready to form a grid. Light, more energy than visual impressions. Something about the same colour.

2. Find a Spot to Take a Picture

A building. I am outside, walk between two buildings. Then I go inside, I am in search of a place to put my mattress, and someone else comes along with me all the time, because I want him or her to take pictures of me. I drag this mattress behind me outside, between the two buildings and inspect the different spots, because I have been here before sometime and know these places. And the first I visit I stop for a moment but then continue. All these places are in the middle of where people walk. But these are not really streets but more like outdoor hallways going this way and that.
Eventually I stop at a spot that is very narrow. Light, sand colours. She asks me: here? And I say it is okay. It must do. It is on a path near the building. 
Suddenly there is a lot of folk about, and they all have to pass and people follow me around even if I was doing something private and they stand in the position of Single Whip and clearly wait for me to do something. So I leave what I was doing and stand up and am already in the middle of them. This is all in a corner of this complex (reminds me of the temple of the ancients of FF7). And I adopt this same posture with the intention to do some teaching. I find the whole thing rather inappropriate but eventually join anyway.
After that I go inside and everyone follows.
I was inside before but I can't remember the events. Now we immediately arrive to level four, even if this was not by choice, I did not intend this and was expecting to go where I went last time, just a few moments before in the dream in fact. Building now reminds me of Letteren faculty in Leuven. But it is also a hospital and there is a lot of light and many windows on one side. Again, I was expecting a private house of some kind, but not a public facility. And I really don't want to be faced with hospital things. That is when I go alone on my way and look for my own way.
Somewhere in the dream there is Jere, and he is saying something about Taiji 2012, and this refers to my t-shirt, which has these words printed on them. And I think, this is awkward, because that makes my t-shirt outdated, just when I thought it was spot on.
There is a stage somewhere, either me or Jere have left something there, something of Jere. (Can't read my notes here, so don't know what it is).
And then I arrive home. I have my luggage with me, a plastic bag of the shop and it is full, so many things are in it that the bag can almost not hold it. Among other things, but prominent because the first thing I take out, is a book. This is Emerald Green, by Kerstin Gier, and the other one is there too, which is Ruby Red.
Also something about paperclips. And the bathroom, toilet. And something I have to clean. (Can't remember details).

3. Cycling Home at Night

Time for bed. Everyone is in the same room. Before this I came from Leuven with my bicycle, and passed the bus on the Mechelsesteenweg, this is in the night, or towards morning. Light nonetheless. And two people get off the bus, and one I seem to recognize, it is the red haired girl that once worked in the lunch bar, and I've seen her a few times in passing last week, and I think, I might walk up to her, but I just go past her and don't do it.
And then further down the road or at home, can't remember, radio and music and I switch it off. And everybody sleeps. Then something about the pillows, one pillow and making noise, but I can't read my notes.
And this one room is my room, and I am not too happy that everybody makes use of it.

4. Meeting an Old Acquaintance

Outside, going home from some festival, on a hill, streets square the place and when I walk down I see Pheg. It has been a long time since I saw him, actually it is someone else, and I recognize his face, but I can't remember his face, in the dream, and I go to him nonetheless, and he seems to recognize me too. But I can't remember the rest of the dream. Many things happened before and some things happened after.
And there was also Pesl in a dream, but I can't remember the circumstances.

5. Beach Fortress

Already near the beginning of the dream there is something about Suske and Wiske, and the others are also there, only Lambik is doing something else and I see him climbing a rope, duplicated many times and with someone else doing the same thing but almost mirrored and this I see on a piece of paper, as if in a comic. But the others are dropped from the sky as if teleported through time and fall down in the sea. They still think they are safe. They are more or less right, because they want to reach the island of Amoras, and its beach is near, but they are a bit overtaken when they realize that not all is according to plan, since they fall perpendicular to the world then what they assumed, so their orientation and thus gravity, and that of the world, is different, 90°. So they fall to the bottom of the sea, even when they see the castle walls beneath them, because the fortress on the island and bordering the beach or sea is built so that its stones or also on the sea floor, so you can't see the difference rightaway.
All this means that they fall along a wall of water (which I suppose normally would have been the surface of the ocean), very clear, light, and they will hit the stone. At the same time, they are chased by the local army, but they look like black spirits, small ones, with spears, and the dive down behind them, knowing well enough what they do, and they change, they take of the black, which is a mask, maybe before they were embers (Calcifer?). Shooting a volley of arrows at them, these enemies do. Suske and Wiske are taking cover, but they never get to the fortress.
Later it changes and I am on that island, and it is well visited and well populated, and the whole stretch of the beach is bordered by the walls of the fortress, and there are different sections, and I am in one, and my family is here too, especially my parents. Aunt M. But also Frvb, a colleague, is here. At some point he asks me something, he wants my help. I am at the computer, which is public and stands there, and I am on a high stool and on my left is the beach, but it is a few stories downward, but there are stairs and so forth, but on my right is the room, without roof, so all is open and people walk freely in and out. I was already writing an email.
Then Frvb asks me this if I can do this for him. And all this has to do with writing a curse in runes, and that is what I was already doing. But I don's send the email.
My father is also here in the neighbourhood. When I leave this section I take something with me, like my luggage, and I see my Indonesian shirt lying there, and since my dad is near me I consider asking him now how to wash this piece of clothing, but I don't because I can only do one thing at the time, so I leave it for some other time.
The whole time there is some hostility going on between our family and someone else or another group, that is beached two sections away, and I think most of that group are still on their ships.
But at some point I make myself ready to go and face them, meet them head on. I do this especially because I might help the enemy, it centres on a girl, and I know her and I don't want her to get in trouble, to get harmed or killed.
When I am leaving with my pack to that other section I am thinking this thought, that I should wear more jewelry, that would put me in touch easier with the goddess Freyja. I already have one necklace, and I used to wear another one, and there is a third one, but there are also rings I can put on my fingers. And I think about all this, and when I see it in my mind's eye, it is all gold.
I am there in that section, in one of those big open rooms, and she waits for me. I help her. Before anyone else arrives, but at some point my parents are there, I help her pack her stuff, because she stayed here as a student, but now it is time to go back and she needs to take her laundry with her, which is in a closet of some kind, or stone cove, alcove, in a corner. And I use a hoover to suck those clothes out of the stone inbuilt closet and it comes out at the other end, and I aim it in the bag she keeps open. But soon enough it is full, and I look at her because I know not all of her things will fit in her bag, even if it is a big bag for laundry, transparent, and she says I can continue so I do this, and of course the white socks all go over it and out of it and she takes them up from the floor and I push a bit with that end of the hoover to make room and continue and try to be very careful how I fill this bag. All of those are white socks, but they are not in pairs, but all single, which means that when I spill them, they have to be paired up first. And I think that is a lot of work, but it is her decision.

At that point we are discovered, but we were able to stall it long enough, so she starts to run.
After that the dream changes again into a scene in which I do taiji sword, and people stand around and watch and I demonstrate this to among others Anle, and I say the words, and at first I said to her I will do it twice, the first time how I learned it and the second time how we do the taiji, and this is in the same room or place still, but during this scene I am starting to wake up and the superficial mind starts to take over.
