Subject: For want of a task
Greetings to all who are up at this hour. I have found myself restless, as of late, unsure of what to do with myself in my time here. I practice what magicks I know, but have... found myself for want of something to focus on. The problem is, I know not what.
Has anyone need of any help?

I have been working REALLY hard on my drawings lately!
With so many new friends and faces I want to be able to practice more! So... do you think I could draw you?
It's okay if we don't know each other yet! Maybe you could tell me a little about yourself, and I can try my best!
Thank you so much for your time ♡ Oh! And if you would like an example of what I've been drawing recently, please take a look at this...!!( Peer inside for a masterpiece!! )

...Featherman. If you don't know Featherman, you're really missing out (just ask me to hook you up, I got 'em all here with me, heh heh（ ´∀｀）). I guess it could just be super sentai if you DON'T know Featherman.
I'll go first, but I mean, everyone wants to be cool Red... myself included. Strong! Cool! Leader! Never lets his team fall to despair! Everyone wants to be that! I do enjoy Yellow Owl since man, CURRY. How could I not?
Anyway.

I'm throwing my hat in alongside everyone else in offering my aid should you need it.
Truly, I had been thinking of late that I should shift my direction when it comes to my humble Lady of Bliss. With this in mind, I'll need a day or two to shift things around, but then I will throw my doors wide open to offer a place of positive dreamotion, good food and a willing horn that can hear your tales or even your smalltalk.
The folk that have offered their services are amply welcome to make use of my facility should they require a meeting place under one stipulation: That privacy is given when people ask for it, and to proceed with no judgment.
Some of you feel that you are perfectly okay, and that is fine. You are welcome regardless.
Some of you feel that nobody can help you, and while that isn't true, it is OK to not feel OK. You are welcome, and I want nothing more than to hear you and feed you.
I am little more than an adventurer, but I have seen some of the deepest hells, and have fought a countless number of inner battles. I do not speak from inexperience.
Please consider it, even if you want to spend an afternoon with a good meal, or just want a hug. Or both. I care about each of you, even if I have not met you yet.
Thank you all for your time.

Subject: Dreamotion Research Assistance Request
Many of you may already be aware of the ongoing effort to ensure that those who wish to remain in this world may do so. Eustace-san has suggested a logical first step: we need to better understand the nature of the connections between our present selves and our original worlds. While it appears that observing the connection directly is beyond their current instruments, the researchers at the Observatory are hopeful that progressing their understanding of dreamotion could prove helpful.
What we now need are volunteer dreamers who would not object to the study of their dreamwalking and dreamotion. For those willing, if you could reply here or contact myself or Eustace-san, it would be a considerable help. Of course those who have no intention of staying here permanently are also very welcome to assist. I believe learning more about this could be beneficial to all of us.
Finally, the tapirs have suggested that those who no longer exist in their original world may not be tethered to those worlds as tightly. From comparison to the magic of my own world, I believe volunteers with unusual circumstances such as these might be able to provide the researchers with additional clues. Those who have died in their own worlds, who otherwise experienced a separation from their physical bodies, or who may have complex connections as a result of something such as cloning could be particularly helpful. I understand that a number of these subjects may be sensitive. If you don't wish to discuss them in public, you are more than welcome to contact us privately, or to disclose this information only to the researchers themselves.
Thank you all for your time,
Baldr

Subject: Dreamotion "Lessons"
With the current dreamotion distortion occurring all over and the number of times I've needed to assist those who lack understanding and experience, it would be prudent for there to be a "class" or "training session" for those who are new or need further assistance. If nothing else, learning the basics will help others to advance and develop on their own.
This is a call to any who are willing to help with this endeavor.
While I am willing to assist, I have other commitments that won't allow me to do more than offer start up support, organization if necessary, and advice and insight into using dreamotion. I'm sure there are those who are as or more capable than I, so I have no issue if someone else would like to take charge.
In the meantime, I can offer some private lessons or a one time public demonstration with others who would like to help, but that would be the extent of my involvement.
You are free to use this entry to ask questions and answer each other. Providing tips and advice may help those who have recently arrived. While there are some common trends and techniques, bear in mind that dreamotion will work differently and uniquely to the individual. What works for you might not for another.[Probably need to start a pamphlet... Someone get on that—][ooc: THREADJACKING ENCOURAGED. Threads can also switch to action if needed. As mentioned, this idea is free for anyone else to take over or help in a similar way because lmfao while Eustace is fine helping every now and then, he already has enough on his hands. One of which I've made a new OOC post for about the permanent residency. Some sign-up confirmations, some tasks and requests, and other things are there, so if you're still interested please look into it!]

This may seem a silly question, given that her grove is largely capable of caring for itself, however I planted some roses there a month ago.
Has anyone been paying visit to care for the plants? If not, I will be making a visit there.
As an aside, I would like to issue a reminder that I do not like my things being touched without my permission. Please refrain from doing such.[She will be going to the grove anyway, regardless of whether someone has been taking care of the flowers or not.]

Subject: A Method to Stay in This World
As everyone should know, the version of ourselves in this world is wholly separate from our originals that remain awake in our home worlds. What we do here has no effect there, and vice versa. Most won't care whether they are here for a temporary stay, however there are those like me and Tifa who have formed relationships that would be impossible if not for this world.
And I am determined to make it last.
When the Halloween Carnival arrived last October, we had the opportunity to speak to the tapirs and inquire about the nature of our existence here. In short, we are tethered to our home world which allows us to return, currently at random. However, the fae, creatures, and every other being that is not a dreamer like ourselves do not have such tethers. They either traversed into this world or were directly taken through other means.
This leads to the conclusion that if we want to stay in this world, we need to somehow break the connection, either by completely severing it or changing the tether to connect to this world instead. Perhaps we need to completely change the nature of our current "dream self." As the risk of being sent back is high if the tether is cut, I aim to focus on other means.
However, there is of course no known knowledge or means to do this, and the tapirs do not know, either. Thus I am sending this inquiry to:
1) ask if there are any others who would be interested either to help or in the results;
2) if there is anyone who is familiar with dimensional travel or strong magic that could give some clue as to what to look for.
Currently I am looking through the Tree of Stories to find any text or story that could be of use. My current suspicion is dreamotion will be the main component, however manipulating it for such a use will be difficult.
If you are interested, you can respond here or contact me privately.
— Eustace[ooc: AND THUS MARKS THE BEGINNINGS OF A VERY LONG QUEST but yeah Eustace is trying to find a way to stay permanently in this world and is looking for anyone who wants to help, wants to benefit, or has ideas that they can look into and be possibly incorporated in the actual method. An additional sign-up post has gone up for an official head count. Those who sign-up will be able to play a significant role in finding a clue and/or piece that will lead to the final result. More details there!]

Songerein—
A dream world born from the clash of three different universes. One world produced emotion energy, a byproduct created when one's emotions manifested into a more tangible force. Another produced dream energy, a byproduct of one's dreams that allowed one to view and traverse through them. Both worlds produced so much excess energy they were diverted into an empty universe and happened to collide, producing a new, strange world made up of a new source, dreamotion energy. It remained a barren wasteland until a tear through the dimensions appeared and the concepts of fairy tales poured through. Magic, creatures, environments—they were all dumped in a central location and life began to form. But were they real? Or just figments of what they used to be? Regardless, this giant clash has created a unique world filled with unlimited possibilities.
But of course, a clash of this size would have some side effects. The dream energy in particular remains volatile and continues to seep out with its innate ability to connect to any dream in any world. If there is a strong enough resonance between the dreamer and dream energy, a version of the dreamer, a dream self, is formed and pulled into Songerein while the original body remains in their world safe, unharmed, and unaware of what's going on. Only after accumulating enough dreamotion energy can the dream self "wake up" and leave Songerein to return to its original body, all its experiences felt like a strange, long dream.
Fortunately, Songerein is relatively...peaceful. It's a brand new world after all with only the fairy tale creatures and the dream selves, or dreamwalkers as they are officially called, pulled from other worlds as its denizens. There may be times the different energies become unstable, but it only creates a slight disturbance that eventually settles. Still, the constant connecting and reconnecting through the dream energy means that different things are randomly pulled in and disappear from the world. Those who have decided to make Songerein their home want to build onto it by using the ability to traverse through dreams to their advantage. By creating dreamshifts, they can create giant dreamscapes based on other worlds that large groups of dreamwalkers can enter and bring back concepts to be used in Songerein. Beginning with fairy tales, dreamwalkers could also form dreamshifts based on their own home worlds to bring in something from there. As a bonus, this uses the excess dreamotion energy within the world, helping stabilize it.
So, what kind of world will Songerein become? Just remember…
Where there are dreams, there are also nightmares.
Songerein is a panfandom game based on the following three former games: Somarium, Empatheias, and Forgotten Tales. At its core it is a worldbuilding game with adventure and character development. Player and character action will be what decides what is brought into Songerein, be it for good or ill. Although it's expected for players to be able to create their own fun and not rely solely on the mods, Songerein is billed to be more of a relaxed game for everyone to have fun in.
