'' | ''Elves are not supposed to need sleep. For some Fey related reason, we usually go into trances instead. What I know of the logistics is rather fascinating, but it’s hardly relevant. The fact is that I’ve never slept in the traditional sense. I’ve never had the time to. That is to say, I slept last night, and it unsettles me deeply. I was assisting with medical needs in Seglock—as I have since I arrived—and at some point I nodded off. Thankfully, I wasn’t assisting anyone when it happened. I’m particularly put off by the dream I had.'' | ||
''It began with me wandering through the woods, which I’ve been increasingly inclined to do as of late. The scenery was familiar, but it was really too familiar. The trees and flowers were blurring by, which tipped me off that I was running. I saw people up ahead and finally realized that I was reliving my encounter with [[Tordek]], [[Violet]], [[Varryn]], [[Boros]], and [[Siohbhin]]. Despite that realization, the people I saw didn’t have faces. In fact, when I asked for their help, they didn’t respond at all. An Eldritch Blast hit me, just as it had back then, and everything went black.'' | ''It began with me wandering through the woods, which I’ve been increasingly inclined to do as of late.

''I hit the ground but felt no pain. My body was still no longer my own. I wandered through a field, observing the tall grass and roaming animals. By the time I left that field, they had all died. I was heading toward some towering building that looked to be facing the sun. The building was melting: I could see bits of walls and windows splattering against the ground.'' | ''I hit the ground but felt no pain. My body was still no longer my own.

''After this, I finally awoke, but I couldn’t shake the scent of smoldering rubble. I am not entirely certain of my purpose in writing this down. Perhaps this is my attempt to make sense of my dream as I have been too tired and occupied to give interpretation an honest try. I feel strangely compelled to see if the scroll I claimed from the Servants can provide answers, but I dare not come into communion with… that thing. If I have a shred of luck, and I sincerely doubt that I do, maybe these words will always be nothing more than the ponderings of a restless mind. If only my Fey ancestors would lend me some of their fortune for the future. | ''After this, I finally awoke, but I couldn’t shake the scent of smoldering rubble.
