[ First Dream ]

[Welcome to the Labyrinth. You won't find a bulging Goblin King twirling his balls down here. This is Daedalus' Labyrinth. It has a mind of its own. The walls move and shift. Any room may contain a trap or a puzzle or a monster. A younger Nico is wandering through here with the ghost of King Minos. It's unclear which one is in charge. There are many exits, but good luck finding one.]

[ Second Dream ]

[You're in hell. Literally. Tartarus is hell. A primordial god. The ground is sharp stone and glass. But look closer. Look under all that, and it's flesh. The air is poison. The rivers are fire, lamentation, pain. Pus-filled boils fester over the surface, incubating monsters - dragons, giants, Titans, serpents, harpies, you name it. Those who have already been born are coming for you.

There's Nico up ahead. Something dead is at his feet. He's got a wicked black sword in his hand. He's waiting for something.]

	The Mist? What is it? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's a shroud. A force. It hides reality from mortals. You know, monsters and gods. Things like that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh... [Monsters she understands. The monsters of her world though are a little more tactile than those hidden by the Mist.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: [Dream the first!] nico_di_angelo 2014-05-21 08:56 pm UTC (link)
	Well. You should come with me then. I have a ghost who's showing me the way. You won't die, at least. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: [Dream the first!] lightwoven_art 2014-05-21 10:04 pm UTC (link)
	A ghost? A spren, you mean. Spren are everywhere. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: [Dream the first!] nico_di_angelo 2014-05-21 10:17 pm UTC (link)
	Are spren what you call the spirits of people who have died? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: [Dream the first!] lightwoven_art 2014-05-21 10:26 pm UTC (link)
	Well... We don't have spirits of people who died. They go to the Tranquiline Halls to fight the Voidbringers.. Spren are different. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: [Dream the first!] nico_di_angelo 2014-05-21 10:59 pm UTC (link)
	Then a spren isn't a ghost. A ghost is someone who has died. I have one who is helping me. His name is King Minos. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: [Dream the first!] lightwoven_art 2014-05-21 11:07 pm UTC (link)
	Oh. He didn't go on to the Tranquiline Halls? What was his Calling? If he was a leader, they're needed there.. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: [Dream the first!] nico_di_angelo 2014-05-21 11:12 pm UTC (link)
	Our dead don't go there. They go to the Underworld. He is one of the Judges who determines their final destination. But right now he's helping me find Daedalus. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: [Dream the first!] lightwoven_art 2014-05-21 11:13 pm UTC (link)
	Oh. Maybe he can help me find the way back to where I was? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: [Dream the first!] nico_di_angelo 2014-05-21 11:18 pm UTC (link)
	[Nico purses his lips, perturbed by the suggestion.] I guess he can. But after we've found Daedalus. We're nowhere near an exit, and it would take too long to find one now. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: [Dream the first!] lightwoven_art 2014-05-22 10:23 am UTC (link)
	I suppose... Alright, I'll go with you. Adolin will be missing me though.. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: [Dream the first!] nico_di_angelo 2014-05-22 03:34 pm UTC (link)
	Is Adolin down here too? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: [Dream the first!] lightwoven_art 2014-05-22 04:49 pm UTC (link)
	He was exploring a different part of the city... He.. He might be with the others. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: [Dream the first!] nico_di_angelo 2014-05-22 06:10 pm UTC (link)
	It'll take too much time to find him then. Come on. [Nico turns and starts walking purposefully down the corridor.] Stay close. There are traps everywhere. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: [Dream the first!] lightwoven_art 2014-05-23 09:57 am UTC (link)
	He'll find his way... [She stuck close, her eyes darting around.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: [Dream the first!] nico_di_angelo 2014-05-23 03:58 pm UTC (link)
	[Or he'll die. But Nico leaves that unsaid. He's more concerned with his current objective.] Do you have a weapon? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: [Dream the first!] lightwoven_art 2014-05-23 04:00 pm UTC (link)
	Ye-No. I did, but.. My spren is missing... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: [Dream the first!] nico_di_angelo 2014-05-23 05:34 pm UTC (link)
	That's unfortunate. [He's got a black sword at his hip. It looks almost too large for him.] Stay behind me if we come across any monsters, okay? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: [Dream the first!] lightwoven_art 2014-05-23 05:36 pm UTC (link)
	Okay. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: [Dream the first!] nico_di_angelo 2014-05-23 05:40 pm UTC (link)
	[And because this is a dream, the setting changes quite suddenly. The walls of the Labyrinth shift from brick to stone to marble, and the corridor widens until they are standing in a room with a fountain in the center. The water is clear and inviting.] (Reply to this) (Parent)
