People assume that the biggest pair of opposing forces is life and death. However, there is one that many brush aside as too normal, and it doesn't affect us. Reality and dreams. Reality is but one of the most powerful entities of all, but dreams are much much more powerful. They have dictation over our personality, over our destiny. Dreams have the ability to see into the future. They make us smarter, and they make us who we are. Mors, or death, has disappeared. People all over the world have stopped dying. The population begins to rise quickly. So Vita, or life, has stopped her process. She recruited Somnia, or dreams, to help find him. In response, Somnia pulls a power move. He makes every living thing fall into sleep, and Rem, or reality, makes it so that the beings stay in their current state during sleep. Somnia then finds some of the most worthy humans to help them find Mors. That is where you come in.
You wake up in a dense forest, the sounds and smells of nature overcoming you. You look around at the other people. Even though you are here, you feel distant. Like it's a dream, but not a dream. The trees then mysteriously separate, and you watch as a mystical druid-like man coming your way. He has a magical flowing robe, the bottoms ripped from the feral wolves that accompanied him the way here. He stops at the edge of the clearing. "Hello, bellatoris. I have summoned you here to help Vita." Before you even begin to question anything, he waves his hand, and the trees separated to reveal a small girl, with a white flowing dress and blonde hair. He button nose red compared to the rest of her pail skin, she sniffles, as she had been crying ever since she noticed Mors disappearance. You hear a boy at the age of about 16 push his glasses up. "Vita. Vita is life, correct?" The small girl nodded, impressed. "You all may know of the 4 most opposing forces of all time. Life and death, and dreams and reality. I represent life, Vita. My brother represents Death, Mors. This man represents dreams, Somnia. And his sister represents Reality, Rem. My brother, Mors, has disappeared. There is no doubt that someone is trying to upset the balance. Perhaps they lost a loved one. Or perhaps they want to take over the world. No matter, my brother must be found. The whole cycle of life is but a dream if Mors is not here. I had Somnia bring you here to help me. According to him, you all have very distinguished qualities that will aid me in finding Mors." The same boy with the glasses smirked, unimpressed. "How are we supposed to help you? We are just mere mortals. We have no abilities." He stands up, almost challenging Vita. The girl frowns.
"Which is why Somnia will amplify your distinguished qualities to the point that it will turn into an ability. Say if you are a snake of a person, toxic and cunning, you may gain the ability of being venomous, fast, and a hell of an enemy. Like you. I see you now and that's all I see. Another of you could be someone who cares about others well being, and become a healer. It's truly a fascinating thing. However you will not gain this ability quite yet. Somnia will guide you to the Fortress of Balance. A fellow friend will meet you there. I have some activities to attend to." She smiled at the rest of you, and disappeared in a puff of white smoke. Somnia turned to you, and smiled. "Any questions?" His soothing voice asked.
