Dream 1

This dream took place in the past in an older time period in Europe it seemed back when feudalism was the norm.

The dream took place in a kingdom where a king from another kingdom was coming to visit the king of this kingdom, and two women with light-color skin who lived in this kingdom came up with a plan.

Trying To Connect Two Dimensions (Universes) To Escape

Source: Wikimedia Commons

I had some interesting dreams but unfortunately I can only barely remember part of two of them, and to make things worse I forgot most of my last dream after waking up and trying to record the previous dream first which led to me forgetting most of my most recent dream because the two were similar and focusing on the older one caused me to forget most of the newest one.

Dream 1

This dream involved me and some other people somehow ending up in another dimension / universe / whatever, I am not sure if we got there by accident or if we went there on a mission, and this dimension seemed to be controlled by a male entity who had a variety of henchmen creatures and other entities.

We found out that maybe the only way back to our dimension was that somehow we had to line up the king from this dimension with the king in our dimension, the kings looked the same, and they were both small somewhat humanoid frog-like creatures who maybe wore a king’s robe and probably nothing else.

The kings were not in control of anything it seemed, they were just tools to connect the dimensions which would open a portal between them somehow, but the entity who controlled this dimension / dream world was trying to stop us so he sent his henchmen after us.

My group got separated but we each tried to continue the mission anyway on our own while trying to survive the leader entity and his henchmen, I found out where the king in this dimension was supposed to be somehow, and so I went there.

There was a pen that was very short, almost like a ball pen that was made of thin mostly see-through fabric or something, and so I had to crawl inside of it.

I saw what I thought was the king hidden in the middle, it turned out to be a decoy with the king’s robe, and so this was a trap.

The leader entity and some of his henchmen were on their way after me so I started to escape, someone else from my group arrived and went to flee after I did, and this person was or could turn into snake and they slithered away when the leader entity and his henchmen arrived.

The leader entity falsely assumed that we had someone very fast on our team because he did not see my teammate slithering away, and that allowed my teammate to escape too.

There was more to this dream but that is all that I can remember.

Dream 2

This dream was similar to the previous dream, and me and some other people (including my female coworker TR) seemed to be trapped somewhere and were possibly on a mission and maybe a portal and / or another dimension and / or something like that was involved but I can not remember.

There was once again something trying to stop us, another versus situation, and so we tried to do our mission / escape and survive.

It seemed that maybe we were underground, I remember a hospital-like place, and running into a auditorium-like place with my teammates.

There was more to this dream, but I forgot most of it while recording the first dream.

The end,

Kings (U.S. TV Series)

What is it?

What is it about?

This is how NBC describes this television show:

From executive producer Michael Green (NBC’s “Heroes”) comes a riveting new drama about a modern day monarchy.

“Kings” is a contemporary re-telling of the timeless tale of David and Goliath.

This series is an epic story of greed and power, war and romance, forbidden loves and secret alliances — and a young hero who rises to power in a modern-day kingdom.

King Silas Benjamin (Ian McShane, “Deadwood”) is the well-entrenched king of Gilboa, whose flag bears a divine butterfly symbol.

Gilboa has its capital in Shiloh, a clean new city that is unspoiled by time or litter.

Silas must deal with the tensions rising between Gilboa and neighboring nation Gath.

When several prisoners of war are taken, a young soldier, David Shepherd (Chris Egan, “Eragon”), defies orders and crosses enemy lines to save them.

Unknown to David, the soldier he saves is Jack Benjamin (Sebastian Stan, “The Covenant”), the son of the king.

From that day forth, David’s life will never be the same.

Susanna Thompson (“Once & Again”) plays Queen Rose Benjamin, a distant, yet supportive wife.

Allison Miller (“Lucy’s Piano”) stars as King Silas’ beautiful, intelligent and outspoken daughter, Michelle.

General Linus Abner (Wes Studi, “Comanche Moon,” “Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee”), Reverend Ephram Samuels (Eamonn Walker, “Oz”) and William Cross, Silas’ brother-in-law (Dylan Baker, “Spiderman 2”), try to influence King Silas.

From Universal Media Studios, “Kings” is executive-produced by Green, Erwin Stoff (“I Am Legend”) and Francis Lawrence (“I Am Legend”), who also directed the pilot.

Previewing The Twenty Fifteen Theme | Sebastian Stan’s / Prince Jonathon “Jack” Benjamin’s Family Gets Attacked

Source: Wikimedia Commons

Dream 1

My first dream is super unclear and I can not remember most of it, I think that the dream involved the new WordPress Twenty Fifteen theme that is still being worked on, and several men were talking about various topics in a room as they and/or I previewed one or two blogs that were using/testing the Twenty Fifteen theme (Brandon Kraft’s blog / website might have been one of them).

I remember listening to their conversations which covered various strange topics and various strange things happened during the dream as I previewed the blog or blogs, and I was even able to see things from various points of view like: from inside the blog or blogs or computer, from outside the computer, from the points of view of the men, and I was even able to see and/or experience some of the things that they talked about but that is all that I can remember of this dream.

Dream 2

The second dream is more clear than the first dream but it is also unclear, I think that it started during the night and I was walking toward the front of a house that probably looked like E Manor, and I went inside the house; and it was owned by a family/royal family/house/great house/minor house/royal house/whatever like in the television show Game Of Thrones, but the dream took place in modern times.

Something serious happened that caused everyone to wake up and start running around the house, I think that someone (possibly a kid) got attacked and/or killed and/or kidnapped, and someone probably left a note and/or clues and/or a warning/threat letting them/us know that the family was now under attack by probably another family/house.

I decided to help the family/house that was being attacked, it seemed that the elders/older family members of the family/house were probably dead (possibly killed during past battles with other families/houses), and so I think that the current head of the family/house was the actor Sebastian Stan who was acting like his character Prince Jonathon (Jack) Benjamin from the television show Kings.

We ran around the house together probably gathering some weapons and searching for threats, clues, and whoever got attacked/killed/kidnapped/whatever; and whatever happened seemed to possibly have been done by someone from either within the family/house and/or someone who worked for them and/or one of their allies/friends.

I remember the family/house being very angry and ready to get revenge and/or to recover/save the person who got attacked/killed/kidnapped/whatever, but fortunately Mr. Stan and I had enough common sense to realize that was not the best option; and that we needed to prepare, and figure out what happened.

The family/house was made up of adults who were not very old and they seemed to spend most of their time partying, drinking, having sex, relaxing, et cetera after barely surviving the last great war among families/houses it seemed; and when the attack happened they even had some of their friends over who had been partying earlier during the night.

We went to a somewhat hidden area that was possibly not far from the kitchen in a dimly lit hall (the entire house was dimly lit) that went down into the basement through an old tunnel that eventually led to a large and tall well-lit room with upper and lower areas of bleachers/seats, a gym, basketball court, and other areas; and we searched this area, and then we started working on a plan after securing the house.

We were going to go exercise/train, reinforce the defenses of the house, set up patrols of the house, investigate clues, come up with battle/survival/rescue/et cetera plans, and various other things like that; and so we talked for a while.

I noticed that the basketball/gym area had a few windows to the outside along the right side, it was day outside and I could see that we were in the D Junior High School field it seemed to my surprise, and the windows were only half-blocked with stuff to help prevent people from seeing inside; but the windows had no bars and/or anything else to secure them, and I saw this as a security flaw and I wondered if the attacker had entered the house through one of the windows.

I thought that it was a bad idea to have unsecured windows in the room that was supposed to be the most hidden and secure room in the house, and during our talk I learned more about Mr. Stan and his family/house; and even though he spent most of his time partying, drinking, and with a lot of women instead of running the family/house he was actually smarter and mores skilled than you would think.

I think that he was a soldier or former soldier who was actually pretty skilled/tough who was somewhat good at strategy, he seemed to party a lot trying to forget the bad memories of the war or wars that almost destroyed his family/house and that killed many/all of their elders, and the survivors of his family seemed to focus on trying to forget the past as well.

The rest of the survivors were not very smart and most of them probably were not trained as soldiers, so they did not have a good chance of surviving another war among families/houses, but they were brave and ready to defend themselves; and so we hoped that some training and smart strategies would help them/us survive, and we hoped to avoid war if possible.

After the talk they started to party to relax, then they would start training/et cetera, and so I spent a few minutes with them before walking off to start the serious stuff; and I decided to goof around climbing some of the tall bleacher/seating areas first, one of rows was covered with a sheet/blanket, and so I slipped.

I was hanging from a high area, if I fell I would possible get hurt or die, and I barely was able to climb back up without falling; and I came very close to falling because the sheet/blanket made it hard to climb back up, but I do not think that anyone saw this because they were too busy partying and I woke up.

The end,

-John Jr

A Kings Inspired Dream: The Sword Master & Royal Incest?

The last two nights or more I have had small dream fragments related to or inspired by the TV series Kings, there have been at least 4 in 2 weeks or less, which has to be a new dream record for me or something.

At this time, I only remember part of two dream fragments, one from the night before and one from last night.

The Sword Master

The one from the night before did not have me in the dream, except maybe I was the sword master a few times or not at all, I am not sure.

I am not sure how the dream started but at some point I remember King Silas Benjamin’s daughter, Princess Michelle Benjamin, walking through an open market-like area with a bodyguard, probably.
