Here's one I'm trying to wrap my head around...To start, in the waking world I recently moved cross-country (after talking about it for so many years). The new place I'm in is basically the setting...
I don't remember much, honestly, but what I do remember was being near a window, like a bay window, in the house I'm in now. In the waking world, there's quite a few trees. In the dream, it was more open.
Essentially what happened was, it was daylight outside. I don't know if it was cloudy or just the sun shining in. Probably cloudy, as it is here. Suddenly, it got dark outside the window.
I looked outside, and stopped. The sky had turned very dark, with a very dark, sickly orange tinge to it. What I saw outside the window was a distant city miles away. It was in flames, skyscrapers wrecked, and famous landmarks gone. I recognized it as Seattle (which I have moved to within an hour drive of now).
I looked to my left, and saw a spiritual entity I've had contact with in my mind's eye in the waking world. Usually, he (it seems masculine anyways) is ... much bigger. But he was human size now. Not human, of course, like a construct of sorts. A little hard to explain. Closest analog I can think of to explain his type would be the fal'Cie in the Final Fantasy XIII series. Anyways, he looks towards me, after he looks out the window himself. Though his facial expressions are... almost nonexistant, I could sense the deep concern. He looked at me, pensive.
In my thoughts in the dream, one word came to mind: "Nuke."
Out loud in the dream, I looked at the spirit... and summed up my thoughts: "Mission failed..."
I woke up, and was cold for hours until I went for a run.
Kinda disconcerting, really.
