SLEEPING BEAUTIES: DREAM LOG

[yourkeepers]

Bewitched by the thorn's touch, you have been ensnared in the deepest of sleep. Fortunately for you, the world of Faerie doesn't end with the waking.

The world of your dreams is brighter now, more clear than you've ever witnessed it. You've been it before, you think, there fragments of yourself become reality. But now you are somehow more lucid in its presence, and it's more real - something you can reach out and touch.

You find yourself in this world, and you are not alone. Your dreams and those of other join at the edges, pulling into each other along similar threads.

And you are watched by something even greater.

The cake is completely flavorless. He snatches a nearby peach and chomps down. Juice dribbles down his chin from the overripe fruit, but it may as well be water for all he can taste it.

His hand squeezes closed, reducing the peach to a gooey mess. "You," he hisses at the girl, as if she were somehow responsible for his ruined feast.

She raises an eyebrow at him, unconcerned by the hostility. "Something wrong? Finally realized the food isn't real?" Curious now, she grabs an apple off the table and bites into it. And immediately spits the bite out. "Ugh, took you long enough."
