Chapter #5Dragon's dream by: Falcon   In the middle of the night, Geecku, still holding me tight, notices my body to move. My head twitched a little and my limbs are starting to shake. She shrugged and guessed that I'm just having a dream of sorts... Then I suddenly rosed up awake and screamed.
John and Adrian, who were both guarding the door, hurried inside and fight the intruder attacking me. But I’m unharmed, to their relief, and I noticed Geecku laying on the floor beside the bed with her legs up, and a surprised look on her face. I also noticed that I was sweating.
Brother Harwyn and Lady Selena took me to Harwyn’s workroom. I was wrapped up in a blanket, Lady Selena rubs my back trying to comfort me and Master Harwyn gives me a cup of tea. All the while I was still shivering a little.
”Was it a nightmare?", he asked, "It’s not a rare thing and everyone has it. Nobles and commoners alike”
”I don’t know what it was... but it felt so real like I was awake and it really happened”, I told him.
”What do mean?”, Selena asked.
”Maybe you feel better telling us about it?”, Brother Harwyn asked.
I might as well do.
^^^^^^^
And this is what i told them, and all I can remember, so far:
I was in the middle of a battlefield. Men killing other men. Soldier against soldier, knight against a knight, and lord against lord.
Everywhere was covered in snow, and it was also snowing. I even felt cold. Then suddenly, I saw myself, in a full suit of dragon-like armor (https://princearmoryacademy.com/wp-conte...), riding on a big and powerful Paladian Warhorse!
But I also saw others...
An armored warrior with the head of a black Dog.
A tall knight wields a greatsword with only one hand, like it was just a butter knife, and cuts his opponents in half.
A knight in shape of a woman.
A man with the head of a red viper wielding a spear.
A knight dressed in red and white, wielding a familiar sword.
A warrior with the sigil of House Sarwyck on his chest, wielding a sword made of fire.
A Wood Elf firing arrows at every direction, whilst being defended by a Dwarf wielding a double-bladed axe.
A masked archer who shoots an arrow on every enemy they can.
A warrior riding on a Griffon.
A Norse warrior who has ravens on their shield and cape.
And a warrior who's not from Albion: a Samurai (from Nippon), recognizing them from book-drawings.
All of them, side-by-side, were fighting enemies who all had heads of snakes. Black and white. I then saw a large shadow towering over me. I turned, and look up to see a massive black Snake. It attacked me and the next thing I knew, I woke up screaming...
^^^^^^^
Both Harwyn and Selena looked at me curiously and wide-eyed. I hardly believe it myself. ”What do you two make this?”, I asked, "Well... this is unusual”, Harwyn replied.
”I read about this in the archive of mysteries and magic”, said Selena. Me and Harwyn looked at her with raised eyebrows before she continues, ”There were a few members of House Pendragon, men and women, who had prophetical dreams, called Dragon Dreams. They all were said to have showed either a prosperous future, or terrible tragedies to come”
I stared at her with both amazement and fear. Will there be a bloody civil war in the future?!
Selena then concluded with a shrug, ”But of course, the last time happened centuries ago, so I wouldn't know for sure”
I sighed a bit of relief, ”Then let's hope it was just a nightmare”, I said.
Harwyn then added, ”I also very much doubt that a Samurai would appear in Albion”
Brother Harwyn offered me some medicinal herbs that would help me sleep, but I turned it down politely.
And I went back to bed, having a dreamless sleep...Footnotes
