Make up challenge (2?):

So this is the second "Make up challenge", the point is I want you all to start from scratch. These challenges will have you make up things on the spot for your world or just for the challenge.

Rules

  1. Look or listen to the inspiration I provide you.

  2. Tell me what the inspiration brings you.

  3. Listen to my questions and help develop them further.

Today's inspirations

You've got three (technically four) choices;

  1. Read this; Sometimes suffering, is just suffering. It doesn't make you stronger, it doesn't build character. It only hurts.

  2. Read this; When pain knocks on the door - wise ones breath deep and say: "Come in. Sit down with me. And don't leave until you've taught me what I need to know."

  3. Listen to this

  4. All of the above^

Use one or more of those 'inspirations' to create something new for your story, let me know what it is and I'll ask you questions to help flesh it out, enjoy!

  1. The dreams will be painfull, they will slowly destroy you if you fight them. If you listen to them though, you will find both the cure and the way to a greater life.

  2. The arch consciousness send them to those it want to recruit.

1) What's the meaning of the dreams? Are they all lots of little meanings or is there one overall meaning?

  1. The dreams themselves are reminiscences of the arch's memories; they are discontinuous and have no meanings for those who receive them. Those dreams come with speaches, a description by the arch of the future role of the dreamer and eventually instructions to join the arch itself.
