☀️[🏆🌈✨💎] ★ You find yourself in a strange dream... ★
★ Prompt
Draw or write about your character’s dreams of the deep.
✦ Does your character undergo a strange transformation? Draw or write them as a merperson, an astrean, or any other aquatic form.
✦ Does your character have an encounter with the creatures near the bottom of the Starwell? From tentacled beasts to schools of glowing fry; the depths of the lake contain multitudes of lifeforms unfamiliar to those who walk the surface.
✦ Is there something below the surface that only they can see? A secret that they forget upon waking up? Or a distinct feeling that there’s something they’ve missed, though they can’t quite put their finger on what?
✦ Maybe their dream is introspective, unlocking a hidden memory that they lost in their youth. A past life, an endless summer’s day, a swim beneath the waves — the possibilities are endless.
What does your character dream of?
✦✦✦
Deep within the depths of the Starwell, a creature stirs. Perhaps it’s a long forgotten memory, abandoned to the waters of time, or a sleek-finned whisper of a thousand potential futures, fluttering between the liminal spaces of could-be's and will-be's. Perhaps it’s not real at all and all of this is just one long dream, from the moment you open your eyes for the first time to your last breath, fogging the window of the universe.
Whatever it is, it’s the call of the Starwell that draws you closer, wandering and wondering. It’s the call that speaks against your skin like a prayer, lulling you to sleep beneath the soft eye of the moon. Is it a transformation you seek, opalescent scales curling over your body like a veil of the sea? Is it a dance with the denizens of the deep, sharp teeth and luminescent lures flickering to and fro before your eyes?
You wake up and everything is as it was before, save for the call. Calling, calling…
