About Me — Johnny C
Author’s note: The following is based on a true story, and so some things may or may not be real…but lawsuits are very real, so use your imagination!
The Dream Engine’s cyclopean eye pierces right into the soul of those who would approach it to unlock its many secrets. It can do many things: healing wounds to traveling across time, space, and the multiverse, destroying lives or creating worlds, bringing great wealth and fame, and speaking to the hearts and souls of many. And yet, few know how to use the Dream Engine, for their minds are not prepared to properly wield its awesome powers. Or, their hearts are often filled with fear and self-doubt, inhibiting their ability to weave their dreams into reality and create infinite worlds…life, even…and so the Dream Engine remains a mundane artifact that graces the altars of the material world’s denizens.
Among the many beings whose ephemeral lives have flittered in and out of existence, one such creature felt a primal urge to use the Dream Engine. And like others before him, he resisted the Call…for he did not consider himself worthy of wielding such power…and yet, it was for this reason that he was compelled to seek to become worthy. But to be worthy, one had to at least try to take a seat before the mysterious apparatus and seek a spiritual union that melded the seeker’s heart and mind into one with the Dream Engine.
