>>>>>[I don't like this. It's like the calm before the storm. What's
worse is I had a dream and it bothers me a wee bit.

I was floating over a barren land. I mean the land was dead. I could
see in the distance what appeared to be a pyramid.

As I got nearer to this monolith I could see that it was not yet
complete, human slaves were pulling huge blocks toward the pyramid. In
retrospect I believe it looked more like a pyramid from South America.
One like the Incas.

There were beings whipping the slaves, I say beings because from my
height as I flew they did not appear human. I went closer to see these
taskmaster and was surprised to see Invae. I was even more surprised
that they responded when I got close.

Two that looked like wasp leapt into the air and chased after me.
Others hurled spears at me. The slaves, humans, orcs, trolls, dwarves &
elves begged to be saved, but I could not. As I flew by the temple a
woman dressed in black ordered the Invae to chase after me and to not
let me escape.

With in a few moments I could see a cloud of insect chasing me. I flew
across the barren landscape but could see the creatures were gaining on
me. I saw what appeared to be a chasm and headed for it hoping that I
could hide, but what I saw further astounded me.

I could see the planet Earth. It was as if I were viewing it from
space. I was unsure if I should go into the chasm but one look at the
swarm that was approaching rapidly and o flew at earth as fast as I
could.

When I did so I felt pulled and the landscape stretched around me.
Everything went black and I awoke in my bed.

I have not had many dealings against the Invae. I do believe this was
more then a dream but of what importance?

Any help would be appreciated.]<<<<<

Maybe your Totem sent you. What's important is you alive and be glad
they did not capture you.]<<<<<

>>>>>[I also had a strange dream recently.

However, I don't think it has much signifigance. I dreamt I was being
chased by a giant burrito.

Hang on, I need a drink.
