Erik stared for a moment at the dragon.... dragon! Shawne was right there if she hadn't been Erik would have done something stupid to wake himself up. He had had weird dreams before but this one was reaching the top! He felt pain! Maybe he wasn't dreaming.... no he had to be! As much as he wished elves and dragons and other creatures like that were real they just weren't!<br/><br/>Rubbing his eyes he sat next to Shawne opening and closing his mouth a few times, no words coming out. He absently put an arm around Shawne, he just wanted to make sure she was real. And sure enough he could feel the cold, his senses were heightened there was no way this was a dream.... but..... stuff like this didn't happen in real life!!! yes in novels and stuff but to him? Never, he was a normal nothing special college kid who had his head in the clouds! This was just..... he wasn't sure anymore.<br/><br/>Swallowing he finally spoke, "Um..... thank you all for you help....." Erik looked at the dragon again, "Um.... sorry for staring and stuff but.... what are you? I know your friend here Tarathar said I was in Terra something but to be honest I have no clue what it is.... I am not dreaming am I? Are you all even real or am I having one big hallucination."<br/><br/>Erik swung his head around as he heard a cough and someone ask "Where am I?"<br/><br/>Erik just stared, apparently they weren't the only ones! And with this person being all confused they must be sane! Something began to stir in Erik, it was odd. But as he started to realize this was real he almost felt happy. He had always thought and dreamed of something like this..... it was almost too good in his mind.
