Chereads / Into Illusions / Chapter 3 - Freedom

Chapter 3 - Freedom

After entering the illusions he found himself in a great city or on the outskirts of one he couldn't tell because of the immense size and grandeur of the city.

Derelict thought he was simply dreaming and would eventually wake from his dream no matter how vivid it was. He walk around for what seemed like hours and looked at the people walking by.

Eventually he saw someone he recognized it was the masters son. he was drinking and making merry with many women and his friends they all looked like rich knights who had just come back from conquering a nation

Derelict began to want to kill this man, he was so happy and joyful. But the master son always rode the horses the tore his friends apart.

He seemed to enjoy this.

As he was watching the man make merry a random woman walked by and stoped and stared at him " why are you wearing those rags is that truly how you see yourself?" With a look of disgust she turned and walked away

As Derelict looked at himself now he realized he was wearing the same ragged clothing he always wore.

The woman's words played again in his mind "how you see yourself "... "What could she mean by that?" derelict thought to himself.

That sparked an idea "dose that mean i can changer how i look by how i see myself? "

Derelict began to think of seeing himself with grand clothes eating expensive foods and relaxing with is fellow slaves and many women. Then suddenly his clothes changed and he was in fine clothes although the food didn't appear or the women or .....his friends. he now had very nice clothes. "What is this world?"

After a while he saw another person walking by and asked " excuse me sir were are we, what is this place, is this a dream?" The man was surprised and said "son have you never been in the illusions before? "

"No what are you talking about....is that what this world is?" the man looked at him he seemed very young mabey he had just awakened the ability to enter. "Yes son this is the illusions if you do not know then this must be your first time ..

..a word of advice if i may you cannot die here unless you believe you can keep that in mind and enjoy this world." the man turned and walk away quickly as if he was busy.

Derelict wanted to call out to him but decided not to. His whole body then went numb and he felt he was being sucked backward as his vision blurred. he soon woke up with his hands in his lapp tears still wet in his hand as he sat up he looked around and it was still dark. " was i dreaming? ....no that was something else." I wonder if i can make it back" he thought to himself.
