Thirtieth Draft [Voice]

My mother has arrived in the City. It's something I'm grateful for and something I feel guilty for as well. It adds another layer of normalcy to this place for both me and Alexis. I think it does for Kate as well. However curses like yesterday illustrate to me all the reasons I'm being selfish in being joyful at having her here.

Yesterday was...interesting and cruel. We shouldn't be forced to share our fears like that.

Did everyone make it out relatively alright?

Stories would be changed to protect the innocent and of course it'd all be on a voluntary basis.

I ended up in someone else's dream. he was torturing people and had a field day trying to do the same to me. Nothing physical or anything. Mental was enough.

I'm going to assume, because it's the City, that mental is more your idea of real nightmare than physical.

I would rather deal with physical pain than mental. This City has hurt me more than I'd like to admit, but... yesterday was hard, seeing him like that. Hearing the things he said. I know it was just a dream, but my Master says dreams are the mind's way of saying what they really mean without wasting time with the mouth.

I'm not entirely sure I agree with your master, no disrespect intended. I think it's just the subconscious; it's the things you worry about; the things that you have guilt over from the past. That sort of thing.
