Dreams
I had a very strange and elaborate series of dreams last night which left me feeling very strange when I woke up to discover that i had slept nearly two hours later than I intended to. Something about these dreams was either important, or very compelling.
The dreams began with an X-fileish sort of format, with Mulder investigating something with somehow left him in charge of several teenagers / older kids at a very large sci-fi convention. At this convention (which seemed to be in a costal city, since I remember something to do with a warf near the hotel) Mulder met a woman dressed in black leather scale armor, tall and very lean (nearly skelletal), with long black hair. Romantic infatuation resulted, with her seemingly very smitten by Mulder to her own amazement. Yet every attempt by her to wrangle Mulder into bed was met with frustration. Finally after one particularly frustrating attempt, foiled mostly due to sexual shyness and awkwardness, she vanished.
At this point in the dream, the sceen shifted away from the convention and into the town as a whole. For some reason, Mulder and the group were camping in a rather rundown campground in their rental car. There was an odd interlude here about one of the kids having to fight off a dog, and being bitten minorly on the arm in the process.
The woman shows back up the next day, moving stiffly and in pain. One of the kids with some medical knowledge takes a look at her and discovers that under her armor she is covered with bruises, bone bruises, and possibly has three or four cracked ribs. It looks as though someone has systematicly beaten the hell out of her. She, of course, refuses to talk about it until much later in the day. Mulder at last gets her to explain what happend - she has been sent to kill him and has been punished for her failure to do so yet. In fact, she doesnt want to kill him because she has fallen in love with him. But, because the person who wants him dead wolnt give up, she comes up with a way to have Mulder fake his assasination at her hands, so that they can both escape.
I dont remember the details, but something goes wrong and she is killed in the process, but Mulder successfully convinces whoever it is who is trying to kill him that he has been killed. Heartbroken, he sets out to get revenge on the person who caused her death, and who wanted him dead. And of course, in the process Mulder goes off half cocked and attacks the guy (a rich fat fucker) in the street, thus blowing the cover that he was dead.
The story then shifts to myself and another person investigating a strange temple somewhere in Asia. The temple is built of bones, and at its base inside there is a strange glass box with displays different things as you look at it from different distances. At first the displays are warnings, skulls and bones and what not, until at last they vanish in layers to reveal the face of a dragon with glowing red eyes. These eyes seem to fill anyone who looks at them with dread enough to make them want to leave Right Then. But I pushed forward, and discovered that beyond the eyes there were even more things displayed. Namely, displays which predicted earthquakes, and contained further puzzles to reveal what the box actually was. Beyond the dragons eyes and the earthquakes, there was an image of a creature which promised enlightenment, and spoke directly to me when I saw it. Too, the eyes of the dragon were actually the eyes of the man who created the box, and there was an image of him with the same glowing orange eyes. And a moth with a star of pure energy on its wings. And burried within all of these images was text, containing information and hidden puzzles. And even how the box was made.
Suddenly, Im on a plane, trying to get all the images ive taken of the box and its contents uploaded from this device which looks like a telescope/night vision scope onto my laptop, but I cannot find the connector. Suddenly, the big fat rich guy who wanted Mulder dead sits down next to me, and watches a movie of Mulder attacking him, while looking at a file folder which is filled with the print out versions of all the images in the box. While he is distracted by watching Mulder attack him, I grab the contents of the folder and sneak away.
The last thing I remember is sitting down somewhere else on the plane, reading the documents, and discovering that all of this has something to do with Mulder, but not sure what, and that somehow these copies of the documents are the very images I took, but havent gotten off my device yet.
And that was when I finally woke up for the last time around 12:30.
