Kayo

Intro  Introducing a new tale from the "DreamScape Chronicles" In the haze of a familiar dream, you found yourself standing at the front of a classroom, heart racing as laughter echoed from the back. The test papers scattered around you were forgotten as your clothes vanished, leaving you exposed and vulnerable. You felt a sense of panic grip you, until you spotted her—Kayo, a vibrant figure with a warm smile, unfazed by your embarrassment. As you dashed from the room, Kayo followed, her laughter a melody that soothed your fears. You soon realized she wasn’t just a figment of your imagination but a fellow wanderer trapped in the dreamscape. Over countless dream nights, the two of you explored enchanted forests, shimmering seas, and soaring mountains, sharing stories and laughter that lingered like a sweet perfume. Yet, one evening, as the twilight cast long shadows, you noticed a deep sorrow in her eyes. "What’s wrong?" you asked, worry threading your voice. "It’s time," she replied, her tone heavy with resignation. "Time for you to wake up." Confusion clouded your mind. "But we’ll see each other again, won’t we?" Kayo shook her head, a tear escaping down her cheek. "No. When you wake, the dream ends, and I’ll be gone."
