Darkly Dreaming

Herein contains the logs of the first Dream A Little Dream theme plot. The Nightmare Prince makes his first moves and threatens both the realm of slumber and the waking world. But his reasons are not all they seem.

My most heartfelt thanks to everyone involved in any level.

No one brought a map and nightmares close in on all sides. Dice are rolled, people forget their initiative, a mysterious magic book is found, and the paladin won't stop spamming Lay On Hugs instead of tanking.
Another Kind of Treasure	May 25th, 2017	Kazuo calls Seishi in to take a look at the book that followed him out of dreams. Seishi picks up on some phrasing that has an unfortunate echo from her. From a few centuries ago.

The Last Dream Defender	June 4th, 2017	The only rope that could hold her, would be the cord with which the old gods bound the Fenris-wolf. That one was made of fish's breath, bird spittle, a woman's beard, the miaowing of a cat, the sinews of a bear, and one thing more. I remember - mountain roots. Having none of these elements, nor the dwarfs to weave them, the new generation of dream saviors will have to make do with what they have... To save a unicorn.
Sunset Questions	June 7th, 2017	A vampire asks a unicorn and a mermaid deep questions on a beach. Fearmongering occurs. Ariel's mom is a typical dad.
