A dream about the end of a corridor

You are walking slowly along a corridor lined with brass mirrors. The endless sombre array of your reflections is very soothing. You are quite comfortable here. Then you reach a door.

Option 1: Stay in the corridor

Why would you leave? You are enjoying a peaceful stroll.

Option 2: Go through the door

Because it's there. That must be for a reason.

Option 3: Arm yourself

Take a torch from the wall. You might need it.

A dream about the surface of a mirror

You touch the surface of a mirror. Gentle ripples spread, as if a small stone had dropped into a pond. The surface feels pleasantly cool to your finger, in this atmosphere.

Take your hand away

You find this an unpleasant sensation. So you stop.

Push a little harder

You want to see what happens if you do.

A dream about standing between bright mirrors

You are standing between two mirrors. The mirror in front of you is empty. Gradually, your reflection swims into focus. There is something abominable about its smile. You can feel it in your spine and in the tips of your fingers.
Unlocked with having Recurring Dreams: Is Someone There? 6

Ignore it as best you can

What's the point of trying to copy it? It doesn't seem to need you. (A matter of luck: it could go either way.)

Copy what your reflection is doing.

This seems to be what's expected of you.This choice is locked for now. To unlock, you need having Recurring Dreams: Death by Water 6.

Ask the Interpreter of Dreams about mirrors

Perhaps Dr Schlomo, avant-garde student of the human brain, can explain those dreams of mirrors you've been having? They're becoming troublesome. Lie down on his Persian-carpeted couch and tell him all about it.
Unlocks: Nightmares 3, having Recurring Dreams: Is Someone There? 5

Ask for help with nightmares

All you want is something to alleviate your fears.

Ask for help with understanding

Perhaps Dr Schlomo can show you some insights?

A dream about a different place

You are standing in murky shadows looking down at a silted pond. Your reflection in the muddy surface is somehow bright and vivid; it has an aura. Memories stir in you.

A dream about looking in through a window

Unlocked with having Recurring Dreams: Is Someone There? 10
You are outside somewhere, looking in. You and the moon above you are reflected in the window. You look avid; your eyes are gleaming. The scent of jasmine lies heavy on the air. Why is there a moon here?

Tap on the window

Perhaps someone will let you in.
A matter of luck: it could go either way.
Unlocked with having Recurring Dreams: The Burial of the Dead 10

Look at the moon

While you have the chance.

A dream about a clouded place


Unlocked with having Recurring Dreams: Is Someone There? 11
You are in a tank of water. No, a tank of quicksilver. You can breathe, but the air is opaque. You can see, but there is no perspective, only bright fog. You can hear voices murmuring, indistinctly; they could be next to you or a thousand miles away.

Listen

Listen carefully. (A matter of luck: it could go either way.)
Unlocked with having Recurring Dreams: What The Thunder Said 10

Try not to listen.

Much better that way. (A matter of luck: it could go either way.)

A dream about standing between two avid mirrors

You are standing between two mirrors. This time, though, there are no curving ranks of reflections stretching before and behind you. A third, and quite impossible, direction has somehow come into play.

Stay where you are

You know that what is happening between the mirrors is wrong - but what if it's worse outside? Exercise patience.

Be courageous. Step into the unknown.
