Anything dream related, share your dream stories, meme about it, discuss research, talk about lucid dreaming, and whatnot

If you want to talk about lucid dreaming specifically, there's a community for that (also on lemmy.world)

This community is still in (very) early development (and I'm also quite new to lemmy)

Part 1: I was with friends discussing a book that we all enjoyed. Then I was in a house, and I realised that the book was connected to the house. A deep tunnel was being dug, to find something. We were going to find the tunnel. I walked into the other room to light the fire. I picked up the piece of coal to put in the fireplace. It was shaped like the head of an animal. It appeared to be possessed by some malevolent spirit. People were worried about the spirit, but I was antagonistic, and went hunting to find it. Then I can remember entering a large concrete building. A big hairy creature was standing at an opening, trying to fix some clockwork mechanism with chains. He complained that I had made things difficult for him, the chains weren't aligning. He then finally got a large weight attached to a chain to an opening, and let it go, and it started dragging the chains as it slid out.

Part 2: I went outside, and saw the chains had started to pull a surface of lead out. I was on top of a long concrete slope, but now the surface was covered in lead. It was like fast flowing liquid metal, except it was solid. I could walk on it, but every second it was changing, appearing to be a river of metal. I enjoyed running down the slope, and up the sides of the walls as the metal flowed over them. I reached the bottom, and was with 2 people: my brother and our close friend. We followed a river until we came to a dam made of terraced stone blocks. It was quite well made, and obviously for people to enjoy walking beside. But we had noticed that the river had been flowing towards the dam, and from the pool at the bottom, small trickles were running up the hill to the top of the dam. My friend commented that 'if you found water that behaved that way, wouldn't you build something to try to stop it?' And it seemed this new fancy stone dam was built on top of an ancient structure.

Part 3: We continued walking and at the top of the dam we were in a forest. I split off from the group and noticed in the trees, there were hanging bunches of raspberries. I ate one, and it was delicious. I yelled to the others to try them too, and then noticed that all sorts of different delicious looking berries were hanging down, some even looked and tasted like gummy worms. And then I found the book on the ground, that I mentioned earlier. Things seemed very bad. I ran back over to my friend, who was then acting crazy, and was trying to eat a plastic bag. He tried to brush me off when I tried to get him to stop. I grabbed him by his head and I could see his eyes didn't look right. I told him "I love you bro, I wouldn't be telling you to do this if it wasn't deadly serious. You have to snap out of it. trust me!" And he seemed to understand, and took the plastic out of his mouth.

Part 4: Then we walked out of the forest and found ourselves in a room, like a small cafe with windows where we could see the street. Me and my brother were there, and our friend was seated at a table, with a collection of odd things arranged in a specific way. Things like, stones, leaves, half a walnut shell. And there was a woman, she had black hair. She said "and now the last part. A close friend makes 2 brothers realise they have betrayed each other." and the friend moved two objects on the table into different positions. "it's done." he said. And then I realised, that this has all happened before. We had been manipulated again into completing their ritual.

Final part:

I started to cry and panic a bit, and I yelled at the two of them: "We have been trying to escape but they keep bringing us back here!" The woman told my brother and my friend, "It's not a good idea to look at the sky." But I knew what was there, and I told the other 2 they should look and see for themselves. Outside the world had changed, there was different technology, strange vehicles, and people dressed very differently. Covering most of the sky above us, there was a huge eye, surrounded by dark brown fur. It was watching the world, while everyone tried to avoid it's gaze. And as I looked out the window, moving just enough to glimpse the edge of the eye, I knew I didn't want it to see me.
