THE DUNWICH PILOT: DAY 2
None of it makes sense

I keep hearing their voices in my head

Saying nothing. Saying everything. I don't understand it. What are they saying? Was it a warning? A threat? A promise of the future?

They eat time. They eat space. And we're both. No wonder they're drawn

I want to sleep. I just want to sleep.

Does anyone have anything for sleep? Regular meds do not work on me.

	Nothing here because I already know melatonin and that Zzquil stuff don't work on me. Prescription stuff makes a tiny dent, but maybe if I just took more it would work? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I mean … Have you tried chamomile tea? Or meditation? Or going to bed early? Or vigorous exercise just before sleep to tire your body out? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Yes, no, yes, yes. I don't think I have the patience for meditation. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Meditation does require practice. But we have a few experts on campus who could help you. […] Can you not sleep because of something physical or is it something else? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

ORLIN:

I saw something last week. When I enchanted one of the void monsters.

	They're not -- it's hard to explain. I don't even understand it, but there were things that didn't make sense. And so much hunger. If I'd stayed longer, no doubt I'd have gone mad. They're monstrous, Orlin. Their thoughts, their being, their essence, everything about them. There is nothing good in them at all. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

isn’t that what Loki said?
That they’re vicious and just want to eat us?

I’m sorry you had to witness that. It sounds dreadful. But they’re gone now. We’re not in the Void. And even if we were, we’re protected. They’re not going to get us. You have to try and focus your thoughts on more positive things and not allow this to fill your mind. It’s not a wonder you can’t sleep if you’re thinking about these things all the time.

Maybe you should try sleeping somewhere else. Maybe share a room with someone you trust? Being in the presence of someone calm and restful at night might help. I certainly wouldn’t drink more of that quil stuff. I could try a hypospray on you, but I don’t know if that’ll help.

	We're not in the Void now, but they're still there. They've seen everything. It's like they're waiting, except they're outside of time so they don't think like we do about it. What's hypospray? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Do you know what they’re waiting for? to eat us probably Oh my I really don’t want to be eaten It’s often an analgesic. But I can dial it up to use as an anasthetic during surgery. It puts most people to sleep. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Their god. Or gods. Or someone who commands them? And food. I don't know. Dream is going to try something. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	If he can’t help you, let me know. But I truly hope he can give your mind some solace. (Reply to this) (Parent)
