Neither a Beginning Nor End
A glimpse of a hazy line of light is consumed by darkness. Your eyes are burdened by the weight of the day, shutting ever so tightly. Sinking into the surface, a child trusting the cradle, the body and physical world become one. Within a few minutes, you begin to feel your mind shifting within your body as they separate into two. Images, sensations of locations, and memories of people that plague your consciousness flash before you’re able to discern if what you’re perceiving is reality. Your mind is skipping between the physical and astral worlds before taking the final leap into a deep sleep. Within a different world, you navigate mindlessly throughout different areas of your consciousness, from your deepest fears, desires, times of happiness, and traumas. These vibrations and elements are the core elements of the Lucid Bell’s designs.
With neither a beginning nor an end, Lucid Bells have existed throughout history within the consciousness of all living creatures. These esoteric creatures were once revered as symbols of wisdom, turn, creativity, and ultimately identity in humanity. Creatives sought out guidance for new ideas and innovations, students and educators craved the vastness of knowledge offered, and leaders, their visions of a better world or hunger for power. Lucid Bells served as the very foundation for the dreams & ideas humans perceive in their consciousness by manipulation, alleviating the intensity, or observing without interference. Despite only being created and bonded within a single person’s consciousness, these creatures can navigate throughout other dreamers’ worlds and other levels of the astral plane, freely accessing others’ internal grounds.
However, with this responsibility, Lucid Bells have found themselves becoming the protectors of humanity’s dreams. More commonly, Lucid Bells protect those they are bonded to from negative energy and low vibrational Lucid Bells with harmful intentions throughout sleeping. Others may protect on a larger scale, ensuring that the dream remains a source of inspiration and insight while being well-protected. However, as the world changed, so did the dreams of humans. With evolution, the advancement of technology, and the complexities of modern societies, dreams became more fragmented, revealing the deepest complexities of the human mind. Humans grew more greedy, malicious, and vindictive, gradually darkening their energy. With this corruption, it soon tainted the way of life for Lucid Bells permanently. Gradually, their natural process of development and energy retention within the human consciousness was fostered in a low vibrational state. Unfortunately, as the energy corrupted Lucid Bells, they soon too became malicious beings along with their intensions with humans. Now, there are Lucid Bells that torment and prey on innocent souls where the dream and waking worlds meet.
Desperation and Preservation
In recent times, a darker undercurrent had taken hold in the dream world. Gradually, the dream world and the human subconscious grew more shifty, misshapen, and unclear to navigate. Lucid dreaming was once a common practice for internal contemplation for understanding oneself, allowing the ability to control one’s own dreams. This skill began to decay, making it nearly impossible for humans to once exercise the ability. As the dream world began to crack, Dream Drainers, malevolent Lucid Bells, emerged. Their drive and purpose were to feed on the fears and anxieties that plagued a specific individual. Later, commonly traversing through others’ dreams in the desire for more energy and torment. These Dream Drainers left dreamers feeling drained and exhausted upon awakening, ultimately casting shadows over the once idyllic dream realm.
Dream Drainers began a dark time by extending their abilities to the crossroads of the waking and dream world. With symptoms like sleep paralysis, sleep deprivation, and an increase in stress levels and irritation, those nightmares crept into reality. Humans, feeling the weight of their own fears and anxieties, began to fear the dream world and the Lucid Bells within it. As humans have had an increase in insomnia and fear of returning to the dream world, stories of Dream Drainers spread, and the guardianship of dreams became more perilous. Fortunately, there are Lucid Bells that remain companions and coincide with humans. They dedicate their lives to making the dream world, the once positive and mythical realm, a peaceful space for humans again.
In the present day, the balance between Guardian Lucid Bells and Dream Drainers hangs in the balance. Some Lucid Bells, driven by their desire to protect the purity of dreams and the energy of humans, have taken up the mantle of Dreamsolei Angels. Dreamsolei Angels safeguard a sacred place within the dream dimension known as the "Dreamsoulei." This place is a wellspring of inspiration and creativity. It possesses the positive energy of both humans and Lucid Bells, and the energy of almost all forms of life. Oftentimes, sleep paralysis demons strive to taint their aura and ultimately conquer the energy source. Its protection is vital for preserving the essence of dreams in both the Lucid Bells world and the human realm.
Meanwhile, dreamers find themselves at a crossroads, torn between the allure of the dream world and the fear of encountering Dream Drainers. The dream realm remains a place of wonder and mystery, where the chiming of bells heralds the presence of enigmatic beings that straddle the boundary between dream and reality. In this delicate balance, Lucid Bells persist, their existence forever intertwined with the dreams of humanity. As the world evolves, they continue to navigate the shifting dreamscape, adapting to the ever-changing desires and fears of the dreamers they encounter, their bell-shaped heads echoing the profound connection between the realms of dream and waking.
