[mingle] what's the dream and what's the reality?

[lovetheme]

Lately the castle's nights have been very clear and almost warm, even up so high among the clouds as they are. But regardless of the weather, they are generally peaceful nights, and few things seem to stir during them...apart from the castle's inhabitants, be it with late-night roving or with sleep. The dreams, by extension, are at least undisturbed...if maybe not always pleasant. That sort of thing tends to vary by the person, of course.

But now--and for several nights, consecutively--the castle residents may find their dreams starting to take on stranger shapes: memories they've never had, friends that don't usually arrive, strangers they've never seen. These odd impressions might cling and continue to confuse even upon waking, vivid as they were; was it really just a dream, or maybe something more...? Does that newcomer in your dream remember you there too, in the daytime?

Either way, there seems to be an strange energy in the air during these nights. And it's bringing dreams together.

She lets him take hold of her. She even holds out her wrist for him.

All she says is, "You don't have to do this, dear. Not if you don't want to."

He doesn't seem to react to her words, just grabbing hold of her wrist and starting to tug her towards the door.

When it opens, they'll be in a maze of hallways and doors, the lights above flickering.

She doesn't need to be tugged. She'll walk freely, going wherever he leads.

She doesn't stop talking. "My, there are so many doors! Do you know where they all lead?"

[systematicsupport]

He doesn't answer her, just turning and walking down one of the darker hallways.

There are terrible noises behind some of the doors, sounds of machinery and crying and yelling. There's the sounds of a storm coming from a door at the very end of the hall, and it is this one that S-4 enters.

Grune isn't afraid. She's here with S-4. As long as they're together, everything will be all right.

But she is worried.

"S-4, dear, I think some people are in a little trouble," she says as she's led past the doors. "We should go help them."
