"Nothing can hurt you in your dream, not even the most horrible monster! Everypony has a nightmare every now and then. It is only natural. And it is also natural to fear about it. But always remember: Everypony needs nightmares! It is some kind…of balance, do you understand?”

“You mean…like walking on a balance beam?”
"Yes, that´s a good example!"

Dreams.
What are they?
Where are they coming from?
And what happens to our souls while we´re dreaming?
Or aren´t we really dreaming?
Does our soul just wander to another place to rest while we´re sleeping?

When a young filly has a nightmare, her mother tells her a bedtime story, that she´ll never forget. A fantastic story about dreams, nightmares and the famous Twilight Sparkle...
_____________________________________________________________

Informations:

This story is two-parted.
On the one side, there is the 'present' world, the world the mentioned filly and her mother are living in.
On the other side, there is the bedtime story of the filly´s mother, which is about Twilight.

I could write more things and explanations, but that would just spoil way too much!

The picture belongs to the owner of the DA-Account Roslik

Because I´m a writer who´s very inspired by music, I´ll sometimes assemble some of this music into the story if it fits in.
In that case, I´ll post the lyrics always as a comment.

I wish you very much fun and hope, a few of you will like it!

Lyrics of 'Taikatalvi' by Nightwish with translation.

Lapsistain rakkain tää näyttämö on
Mis kuutamo kujillaan kulkee
Taipunut havu, kesä hoivassa sen
Valkomeren niin aavan
Joka aavekuun siivin
Saapuu mut kotiin noutamaan

Päällä talvisen maan hetki kuin ikuisuus
Mi pienen kissan jakoin luokseni hiipii
Tääl tarinain lähteellä asua saan mis
Viulu valtavan kaihon
Ikisäveltään maalaa
Laulullaan herättää maan

Translation:

Once upon a time, one dearest to me
Where the moonbeams glisten on the streetside
A lost part of summer but it's tale I can see
On the high sea's white water
On the wings of a dark moon
I only ask it for a home

Silver winter nights call time to rest still
Like a small cuddly kitten's paws creeping
Singing your story I pray reads you real
Like a violin spending all of its days longing
I'll endure til' Gaia sings along

Ivo

Lyrics of 'Storytime' by Nightwish:

'Twas the night before,
When all through the world,
No words, no dreams
Then one day,
A writer by a fire
Imagined all Gaia
Took a journey into a child-man's heart

A painter on the shore
Imagined all the world
Within the snowflake on his palm
Unframed by poetry,
A canvas of awe
Planet Earth falling back in to the stars

I am the voice of Never-Never-Land
The innocence, the dreams of every man
I am the empty crib of Peter Pan
A silent kite against the blue, blue sky,
Every chimney, every moonlit sight
I am the story that will read you real
Every memory that you hold dear

I am the journey,
I am the destination
I am the home
The tale that reads you
Away to taste the night
The elusive high
Follow the madness
Alice, you know once did

Imaginarium, a dream emporium
Caress the tales
And they will dream you real
A storyteller's game
Lips that intoxicate
The core of all life is a
Limitless chest of tales

I am the voice of Never-Never-Land
The innocence, the dreams of every man
I am the empty crib of Peter Pan
A silent kite against the blue, blue sky,
Every chimney, every moonlit sight
I am the story that will read you real
Every memory that you hold dear

I am the voice of Never-Never-Land
The innocence, the dreams of every man
Searching heavens for another Earth

Fantastic beginning to a story. I love the dreamy tone. Will be watching for more! :twilightsmile:

Ou, that sounds awesome! Very inspiring and fitting to the story!
Thank you very very much! :twilightsmile:

Yep, it´s Nightwish-inspired.:twilightsmile:
I got the main idea for the story whilst hearing 'Storytime', that´s why I made it the theme of the story.
That and because of its fitting lyrics.

I´m sorry for taking me that long to update this, but working on more than one story combined with getting caught up with work isn´t very helpful...
I´ll try to update the next part faster than this one, but I can´t promise anything...:ajsleepy:
