I stopped reminiscing about the time when I was playing with Vicky. I know that I have something more important to do, and that is finding a way to travel the miasma to look for Eric's mother.
"Hey En, do you think I can finally bring the sextant here inside the dream."
"Hmm, if you do it blindly, then I can only say that there is a small chance of success, less than 1 percent if my estimates are correct."
The cold a
I tried to utter a scream but my body was frozen. The crack has enlarged as the portal completely formed, a nightmarish figure crawled out. It was a monster with a head of a woman, long jet black hair drape over its head, dark holes where its eyes should be gaze upon me like the darkest abyss it had no nose making its face a little flat, other than its hollow eyes what remained was a wide smile creepily out of proportions, the lack of teeth or lips could be seen clearly on the monster's features, instead a singular large eye crimson in color could be seen inside its everlasting smiling mouth. It slowly crawled out of the portal, my eyes went wide when I saw the body of the monster. Its torso was long, longer than my room, its hair grew on its back like a mane of some animal, it spiraled inside my room using its multiple hands as a means to move, four of its limbs nearest to the head was longer
"Hey, Phil! Are you okay?" I froze as I felt Dave's hand on my shoulder. "Yeah, I'm okay." "Need me to bring you to the clinic?" "
"So um Eclaireuse Ma'am, can I ask you a question?" "What do you want to know kid?" "Can you transform into a soul form? I once met an artifact that can transform into a soul form and I'm just curious if you can transform into one."&n
"Phil I think we have gone deep" I was looking at my surroundings when I heard Eclaireuse's voice echo inside my mind. The golden bubble that once surrounded me by 10 meters has now shrunk to 5 meters, the visibility inside the abyss had gotten worse, the miasma was thicker and the creatures roaming inside of it were getting more significant. Instead of being scared by the golden bubble, some of the nightmare origins were actively trying to weaken it while some were a distance away ready to pounce at me at the time the bubble wears off. We have gotten to the point where we can see walls heading down towards
I woke up and returned to the real world. I remembered I had a collection of glass marbles when I was young and mom should have kept it along with all the toys I own. I head towards the basement, I know that mom kept all kinds of things in there if they are not needed immediately. I arrived in front of the door to the basement. It was painted black with no ornaments on it. The strange thing about our basement door is that it had no handle, no knob, only a flat black door with a noticeable Y shape keyhole on the center of it. I didn't know why mom and dad opt for this design, it may be they don't want anything stolen inside the basement since burglars will have a hard time noticing it when the lights are off, and if they do it would take a long time to open it. Whatever the case may be, I don't kno
After I was taught by En how to store my energy into the marbles, I proceeded to fill every marble with my energy, and every time my energy got low, I would eat something in the pantry. Of the 25 marbles that I had successfully brought inside my domain, 5 of them disintegrated due to various imperfections. Thankfully En had already warned me that not all marbles would survive and turn into a battery, he also told me that more than 60 percent of the marbles would disintegrate after being used once, while the remaining 40 percent would be able to handle multiple times of storage. Furthermore, En said that if I'm lucky enough, one of the marbles would develop a soul and be considered as an artifact that has a high affinity with me since it was used to store my energy, I wanted him to elaborate further but was unable to gather more explanation since he said that it was a rather rare occurrence, li
I agreed with En's suggestion. My sense of danger was blaring even looking at the dark void heading towards the lowest point of the abyss, the abyssal floor. While I was searching the ceiling of the abyssal trench, I tried to peek inside various holes that nightmare origins had turned into a home to look for Eric's mother, I could not help but ask En about the abyss. "Hey En, why is the abyss too deep? And I noticed it's larger than the whole plains of sleep, from shallows till the deep." 
The shoggoth carried me towards the trench. I tried struggling but to no avail, it only made my situation worse as the shoggoth tightened its hold of me. I planned to use a grenade to at least loosen or destroy the tentacle that was binding me but En told me not to do it since it would only bring me harm than good if I try to blow the tentacle off, he even said that it might aggravate the shoggoth and consume me instead. Eclaireuse even tried to overuse her soul force to strengthen the barrier but it did not work, the shoggoth’s tentacle still pass through her barrier. Looking around me, I saw other shoggoths still hunting, purging all remaining nightmare origin that had failed to run away.&
