The Search For Kathea, A Leap Into The Forbidden Wilds      "Norok, do you know the path we must take?"      "Yes, we must seek the 'Enchanted Wood' where most new dreamers come first, from there we go to the 'Cavern of Flame' and descend until we come out at the beginning to the 'Steps of Deeper Slumber". At its bottom, we will be in the Forbidden Wilds. We must take the longer route by land and go not by the waters on the 'White Ship'."      "Why not go by the 'White Ship', surely it would be faster?"      "It goes by Celephaies, once a great city of light, now fallen into darkness and foulness most dire. It then goes to Dylath Leen, a port whose name is spoken with 'Evil'. Its traders sell strange gems not known to come from anywhere else within the Dreamlands."      "Wait! These gems, are they red as rubies, that capture the gaze of those that look into them?"      "You know of t...

 The Search For Kathea, A Leap Into A Creation's Dream      Iriisii looks over to the Great Sage, "are you ready?"      "You mean I am going with you?"      "I promised King Kuranes, I would protect you as one of my own. I can do that better if you are with me. Also, I have no idea what I will face over there, you are more knowledgeable of the possibilities than I am right now. And whoever we meet may trust you more than me, at least until we have the lay of the land, and they have time to know me."      "All right, what do you want me to do?"      "Let me morph into 'dragon' then climb up on my back, behind my head, then hold on to the spikes. I intend to fly around the area first to see what I can then decide where to land. I have no idea if they have ever seen a dragon before, so I have no idea what to expect in a 'welcoming party'."      Iriisii steps away from him, and morphs into her dra...

 The Search For Kathea, A Leap Into Searching the Dreamlands       Iriisii follows the Great Sage as he examines the tower first hand, literally running his hands over every surface, longingly, lovingly, as one would with their lover. And that describes him now perfectly, totally absorbed in gathering new knowledge about something he had only read about before and never seen or personally felt.      "There are no words to describe what I am seeing, feeling. The thoughts entering my mind, are being created as I add to the sum total of what I have within me. Questions I have had since I came here to live are being answered, even as new questions take their place. The role this tower is to take, no, not take, make for itself. I sense pieces of it, glimpses into what could be, nothing can prepare oneself for what I see."      "What do you see? Tell me how you see, with your inner eyes, your perspective."      "First, all of th...

 The Search For Kathea, A Leap Into A New Direction Or Not       Iriisii wakes feeling something is different, she sees Rigmor and remembers her being cradled until she fell asleep. Then she vaguely remembers someone else slipping next to her other side, and falling into a deep restful slumber. She glances at the arm and hand draped across her middle, ah, either Illyria or Desidarius. Hmmm, does it really matter which one? She answers her own question, no, it really doesn't. I love them both, a bit differently, but both equally nonetheless.      She sees Rigmor's eyes open and gaze into her own. An unspoken question forms and then Rigmor puts a finger to her lips to say, be quiet. She then shifts herself, to lean over Iriisii, very gently, like a mild breeze, touches Desidarius' face. As she wakes, she starts to see it is Rigmor and not Iriisii touching her. Rigmor smiles and simply says, "Join us?"      Iriisii turns her head to look at...
