What do the names Wilwaren and Brinn mean? Do you know them well?

These kinds of remembered dreams have more to do with fears we don't want to face than anything prophetic. Menelmacar is the warrior hero. He comes to the rescue twice. That's interesting.

Well, I've met both in real life at a few moots, so I'd say yes...or well enough. And nothing that would cause me to want to hit either in the face with objects. Nor can I think of doing anything that would make one of them want to throw frozen foods at my head.

Menelmacar is interesting...but I'm not sure I needed saving, at least not from Wilwa and Brinn.

What does Menel do when he comes on the scene?

If the dream quits before he does anything - I've done this - get yourself into that state of mind where you're imagining yourself back in the dream and let it continue - continue the dream - awake - and see what happens. You may be surprised. But you gotta be honest with yourself and let it play out "real", if you know what I mean. The human brain is an amazing thing.

A few nights ago I had a dream involving a few Downers, including Mithalwen, and a collapsing house. It's quite hazy now, and all I remember is that I thought Mith was a fake Mith because she was not acting like Mith at all. Oh, and a house was collapsing.

Didn't I say Mith was a wolf 32 posts on this thread ago? Glad you finally see it.

Also, I recently dreamed I met Nog on the campus of Mayence University (where I work), and it turned out he was staying as a guest lecturer for the semester. (No idea what he was going to teach, but my guess would be lycanthropology.)

Did you suspect her because she was all bossy and thephantom?

(seriously, thephantom should be added to the dictionary as an adjective )

Oh, and Nog was probably lecturing about proper Day One performances. :P
