I am in a
dark place. It is
vast, and very
dimly lit. I can just make out the
edges of the walls, and they seem to curve off towards
infinity. The whole thing is one
huge chamber, and I am standing on a ledge looking down into and over it. There is a
slight wind, coming from the
right. I can feel my mind talking to
someone, I am
bargaining over something, this being is
dark and
huge, and in the
darkness, I can't see them. I don't know who or what it is, but it wan't
something from me, and I can hear myself
considering it's offer before
refusing. There is menacing
hatred from it, but my refusal seems to
hold. I realize that there is no way out of the
darkness, and that I am
trapped there with this thing, I could give it what it wants and then I would
escape, but I have a feeling that what it wants isn't
mine to give. There is no sense of
fear, just a cold sense of
despondency. A knowledge that I am in a
dark place, with
no way out, and that I will have to get
used to it. Then I realize that there are no
light sources in the huge chamber.
Where is the light coming from?
For the first time I move, and the dark thing moves as well, I turn around and I see a doorway with a corridor leading to a light. I realize that the cavern is empty and I have been speaking to my own shadow. I walk into the light, and the dream ends.
