Dreams.

And then I woke up, heard them, and it all seemed so ordinary, almost mundane. But through the dream, there was something else.

I've experienced something similar.

That's cool, but I don't think I've ever dreamed that I was a different age. In all my dreams, I'm always the same age as I am in real life, which, however, didn't stop me from being a brave fourteen-year-old warrior or something like that.

Lol, I initially thought Nebok wrote this dream, but then I read the username.
