Mission Vision -- very early in the morning of Imagination Day 6 [Video]

[ Curufin falls out of his bunk, as usual when waking from a mission vision. CRASH! He hits the floor, his blankets entangled with his legs, his right shoulder striking the floor with a thud. Luckily Elves don't break bones easily, but his shoulder is going to hurt. He scrambles to the ICP. ]

Wouldn't you know it, I've just had another prophetic dream. [ He shakes his head and drags his hand through his disordered black hair. ]

Didn't like the looks of this one, either.

I was in a jungle, and it was pleasant enough. Sun shining down through the branches, forest sounds, nice. But suddenly the light intensified, and something seemed wrong with it. I ran to the next clearing and gazed up at the sky, and what I saw was ominous. The sky had turned a glaring dark red and was getting darker by the moment. And then everything grew still, as though the world had stopped. I did not have time to react to that, or wonder what it meant. Abruptly the ground shook under my feet, and the dust rose, and there was fire everywhere, and I heard screams, screams, and more screams. And then I woke up.

Damn if this doesn't seem to me like another candidate for an aborted mission! What the hell happens to the mission world? Is it self-destructing, or is it attacked by unknown forces? Or is this some simple natural disaster?

[ Still shaking his head. He grabs for his jacket and pulls it on. ]

Did anybody else have this dream? Or any variation of this dream?

[ He laughs, awkwardly rubbing the back of his head. ]

Well, some of us don't have any to begin with!

[ He's not including his connection to Naga, since that just seems.. pretty much useless here.. ]

We can't all be as fancy as you, Curufin!

I don't know. I'd like to be a little bit more fancy!

[ Maybe he doesn't need to go full elf, okay, Inigo thinks it'd be pretty weird to live that long, for example.. But some elf things seem to be pretty cool. ]

It's easy to start to feel like being an ordinary guy is bad when you're surrounded by so many extraordinary people like here on the train.

.. huh, really? [ Of course there's something that's quite literally not ordinary about him - the fact that he has a connection to a dragon god back home and all - but it's not really what Inigo is thinking about as he listens to Curufin talk, feeling just enough blood rush to his cheeks for him to lightly blush. ]

You know, maybe that's just you having a bit too much faith in me! Or just you being too nice. All I'm good at is doing my best.
