Dream Episode - Mistress of Innocence

Day of dream: last night

A young girl of around 13 or 14 years old. A beautiful mixed blood, the daughter of a Caucasian father and an Asian mother. She lived her mother in a mansion. They lived high up on the cliffs that overseas the land, although the weather was always too foggy to see beyond a few kilometers. The closest neighbor they have was a rich Caucasian man. He was a huge man of around 40 years old, and he lived at a lower altitude on the same hill.

This day, the girl was out with her servant, exploring the cliffs. One must always remember to tread with care when approaching the cliffs, for one misstep can mean a long fatal fall. The family just got news that their nasty neighbor had invited them over to his house. To get to his mansion, each person would have to brave the cliffs, climbing steadily and skillfully. The girl tried climbing down, trying to get a feel of what it would be like to climb the cliffs to her neighbor's house. It proved difficult. She almost slipped and fell if her bodyguard had not caught her. Her bodyguard, a person trained for physical fitness, tried climbing, and that proved to be difficult for him. They stood there wondering what it would be like to climb it.

The nasty man was sitting on a huge rock at the edge of the cliff. He greeted them pleasantly. His servant woman who came with him told them that there was a huge rock like the one the man was sitting on at the cliffs outside the man's mansion...

The mother decided that it would be too dangerous for her daughter to go for the physical challenge that the trip presented, and the sexual desire that the neighbor had for the young girl. The neighbor was furious for his plans to take the girl was disrupted. He organized an army with his servants to ravage the girl's mansion and take her by force. The girl's mother and servant hid her in the closet, a closet that can barely close properly while their servants tried to ward off the intruders. The nasty man and his servants broke through and attacked the room where they were hiding. The roof started falling...


Reality check: The young girl reminded me of Annelise from This Earth of Mankind by Toer.

Dream Episode - Mama Shop Time Passage

Day of dream: a long time ago

There was an Indian Mama Shop, its gray cement interior colored only with shelves of goods, from spices to cheap clothes. This particular Mama Shop has two exits: each at an angle a certain distant away from the other. Other than the shelves crammed with goods, there is a 5 year difference between the exits.

My Mom and I were at the exit where it was 5 years ago (a present time relatively to us) and my father and brother lives on the other side of the shop 5 years later. To visit them, I will have to weave my way through the narrow alleys, turn slightly left, and exit into a different time. Whenever I return to my time, 5 years would have passed.

This was not a problem, since I only age according to my biological clock. The time traveling does not affect my aging. The only bother was time was flying. It is important to note that the system is closed in this dream, meaning that it only concerns me and my family, friends and other people are not in this dream at all (not even the Mama Shop-keeper).

However it became tiring to travel back and forth between times and I thought it might be a better idea to settle down in one time, my Dad's time since he has his work there. The make the matter more urgent, I found out that with each travel that we make, we cause a little disturbance, rip if you will, in the fabric of reality...

Reality:
Mama Shops are small shops that sells anything and everything.

The "rip in reality" may be related to the rip that Phillip Pullman mentioned in his Golden Compass trilogy.
