TO DREAM
We all dream. Dreams entertain the mind¸ and help organize the day's events. At some time in your dreams¸ you will come across a huge cavern leading enticingly downwards. If you follow it past the Seventy Steps of Light Sleep¸ it leads to the Cavem of Flame. There dwell two hoary priests¸ Nasht and Kaman-Thah¸ who judge all dreamers and¸ if they find them worthy¸ admit them to the Dreamlands. The door opens¸ and all the world beyond is a dream. There is much unearthly beauty¸ and great cosmic terror. If you live here long enough¸ and gain sufficient skill¸ you can learn to create new objects¸ new life¸ and a new reality.
