Magus Of The Endless

There once was a man nicknamed Dream. He was 17, a bit of a science geek, and played all kinds of sports. A fairly well-rounded individual who had decent looks, smarts, and high ambitions. However, all this did nothing to prevent the apparently common case of self-doubt and hopelessness.As a kid who grew up in Los Angeles, California during the year 2060, he had all the knowledge he could ever want at his fingertips. Scientists were constantly pushing the limits of physics to develop greater technology as they always have. The entertainment industry was growing by the day, jobs were constantly being taken by robots, the lives of everyone ordinary becoming better but more intruded upon. It was just your normal, everyday descent into the dystopias you read about in books.Dream grew up in the midst of all this, but was raised under one creed: "Question everything." This is what his parents always told him, and it shaped his entire life.In highschool, he was quite the ambitious teenager

While Dream had intended to continue off for a while, he found that the wounds on his leg were worse than he imagined. So after barely walking for half a mile, he found himself a tree to sit against."Sheesh... That dog did a number on me. At least the bone isn't broken. Probably. Uh, catalog. I need bandages and a disinfectant. What's a good disinfectant?"[A good disinfectant would be-]"Who's there?!"Suddenly shooting up, Dream brought out the gun and aimed around after hearing a voice.[Nobody is there.]"Then who's talking to me?!"[I am talking to you.]"And who are you?!"[I am Savant.]"Savant?"[Yes.]"...Hang on."[...]Remembering that name, Dream brought up his status and looked at his skills. Sure enough, one of his passive skills was named Savant.After realizing that this was just a voice in his head, Dream calmed himself and sat back down."*sigh* Okay then, Savant. So what exactly are you? I've never had schizophrenia, so I don't think I'm imagining things."[I am a

After sitting around for a while, Dream started thinking to himself."It'd be really nice to set up a place here. I really only needed a water source, and here I have one."He had been thinking of a time to settle, and although he wouldn't stop now, he would at some point. He had already given himself a month, and if nothing happened then, he would stop searching. And this place seemed like an ideal spot to settle.However, he also now had better chances of finding civilization. People founded cities and towns around water sources, so if there was any more of a direct way to find a town, then travelling up or down stream would be it. This was what he was planning on doing now. He couldn't think of a better way to advance."Welp, I guess that's the way I'm going then. I'm gonna hang out here for a while though. I can head out tomorrow."Dream spoke as he looked at the sun. It was already getting late into the afternoon, and the sun would be setting in a few hours. There was no use in h

After spilling the truth, the girl in front of Dream titled her head."Another world?""Yea. Another planet. I got dropped into this endless forest around 2 weeks ago and have been wandering mindlessly for a while. At least, that was until I found you guys.""So you really have been lost. How were you able to survive so long?""That's thanks to this."Dream motioned his rifle, and the girl looked at it curiously. He still had it pointed at the man, who was the biggest threat, but since these people obviously didn't know what it was, they didn't care about it. He didn't lower it though. He had to be able to react should this man get violent.As the white-haired beauty inspected his rifle, the man kept staring with narrowed eyes at Dream."...Sigh, fine. I guess you aren't suspicious.""I really am just lost. I'm not in my world anymore, and I don't know anything about this place.""I've heard about people like you actually. Ones who aren't native to this world.""So there's more like m

Riddick and the girls were expecting Dream to come back, but after several hours, he was nowhere to be seen."He is coming back, right?" (Luna)"He should be. He has his stuff still here. Plus that forest can be dangerous. Those weapons may not be able to save him. He'll probably show up before night hits." (Riddick)The girls nodded at his words. They didn't wish for Dream to meet a disappointing end like that. They had fun with him, even if it was only for a day.Unfortunately, even when night hit, Dream still hadn't shown."There's no way. It was just an argument! Is he just leaving?!" (Iris)Iris started panicking a little. She didn't want him to die just because they argued. Luna spoke up in worry."Dad, should we look for him?" (Luna)"No." (Riddick)"No? Why not? You said yourself he wouldn't last long out there." (Iris)"Well the boy is smart. And I also have a feeling I know why he doesn't want to come back. You insulted his homeworld, but he probably thinks we don't want him
