Introduction to a Talk

1. An Unexpected Talk

Koel was in the dream. Old building. Lots of people, they are all waiting for a someone giving a talk. I'm visiting, someone or other friend or two has brought me here. It is rather secluded (reminds me of the temple of the ancients FF7). The buildings themselves are all deserted, behind it are open fields. Where we are there is no roof either. Lots of seats, as in a classroom where talks are given. In front there is a balcony, I suppose this is where the speaker must stand, but he must then go via another route, because you can't access that from this place, it is an upper floor. And to me it looks as if this is a balcony because half of the building is missing. I did not know this place existed.
This room is the end, the entry is a doorway, a passageway runs parallel, beyond that I can't remember, but go farther back and you will reach the more profane areas where this building connects to the normal civilized world.
All the seats are already taken when we arrive. I don't know who all these people are, but I follow my friends, we sit down, on the side, centre but more to the back.
Then people who run this place and or maybe my friends, and Koel, they tell me I have to speak, give a talk. I suppose this is because the speaker is not turning up or is late. Anyway, I don't know what to say and try to get my bearing. People all look my way. Then I know what I will talk about and things start to fall in place in my mind. I intend to give a talk on how the runes came to be in history. And in order to sketch the historical context, I start with some unrelated stuff, as an introduction, and this helps and is like a warm up for when I come to the topic itself, because it has been a long time since I did a talk. The introduction I give is about mythology.
I also say something about roosters. The interesting thing is that I stay where I am, which is among the people, and not on the balcony or in front.
The dream ends before I get to the topic itself.

2. Last Song
(Lucid Dream)

City, light, day, inside. Indian girl, plays music. I listen to her song, which is takes a long time, and I therefore take my time to listen very intently. I concentrate more and more.
Then the music becomes the dream itself, and I feel like being awake, and in the back of my mind I am thinking that this must be the radio, easy listening music, and I expect that I will hear the next song after this one and that I will have to get up because it is time, so I concentrate even harder to consciously hear the end, which I do, but no new song begins, and that is when I realize that it was a dream, and I wake up or I am awake already.

3. Story Teller Waiting

There is a story teller.
First, in the shop. Digr is there. He is on my left, I am in my bed, which is in the workplace. And the rest of the shop is on my right, which means that Digr has not a lot of room and is really close to me. And he needs me to get up, and I am only slowly waking, but I know it is time to get to work. Next to him is a wall and a window, and it is light. I am in the process of waking up.

Digr is already working, I suppose for some time. He asks me to do a particular thing, something that is my task. That means I have to get up. I am wearing my slippers (pantoffels) and help (can't read notes). Something about red onions. These are boxes, labeled Red Onion, and the boxes are white and red, but more like a pink or orange red, and although this is rare food, I know of it well. and the boxes are rectangular, and the size of a normal tin can, only wide. There is a rack where I take them or put them, can't remember well.
Later, outside, there is someone who is going to tell a story. He is already there, in front, on the grass, grass lawn is prepared for this (reminds me of the garden of my parents, he would be at the back side). He sits on a chair, and has grey hair and a long beard.
There will be a taiji demonstration as preprogam, so I will have to be there.
