"Hey, have you heard the rumor about the god who grants dreams?"

"What's that?"

"It's a famous urban legend lately. If you succeed, a misty forest appears in your dreams and you can meet a god. The method is super simple."

"Get a piece of paper and draw one eye on it, then draw four wings surrounding the eye."

"And then?"

"Write 'I give you my dream' in blood on the back of that paper, tuck it under your pillow, and go to sleep! That's it!"

"Sounds like just another typical necromancy ritual. Does that kind of thing actually work?"

"Who knows? But it'd be interesting if it did! ...Though, it depends on the god's mood, apparently. They say your dream might get eaten. And if it gets eaten, you'll forget what you wanted—you'll forget what your dream even was, and you'll never be able to remember it again!"

"Scary lol"

Dreams.

They are the desires of people.

"I want to be rich." This is one common dream.

"I want to erase [someone]." This is a wish for disappearance... a desire... in other words, this too is a dream.

—What? That's not a dream? Who said, and when, that "dreams are good things"?

Desires, if you rephrase them nicely, are all dreams... aren't they?

This is the story of a God who sometimes grants such dreams, and sometimes devours them...

One.

If you have drawn the wings and the eye, the invitation is complete.

Two.

What you write in blood doesn't have to be "I give you my dream." The meaning of writing in blood is "GRANT THE DREAM OF THE ONE TO WHOM THIS BLOOD BELONGS." Writing in blood is what matters. DO NOT USE A SUBSTITUTE. DO NOT. DO NOT....

Three.

Tucking it under your pillow is an act of telling the god your location: "This person is here." Congratulations. YOU ARE TOO LATE.
