Has anyone here ever woken from a dream that...felt too long and too real, to the point where it MUST have happened?

Because for awhile, it truly seemed like I was back in my universe. But then I woke and
Well
I am still here. But I do not feel the same.

[PRIVATE TO: LANCE, PIDGE, KEITH.]

I must speak with you about what you went through before being brought here. Please remind me of what you remember last.

In my experience, catching it earlier is better than too late [and thank the Force they're not talking about his dreams], but it's difficult to tell if this is the same. Has it...

Has it manifested in any other way?

[juniberries]

What is it like in the instance you are talking about?

But no. Beyond my understanding of what is happening where I came from having expanded greatly, physically I feel no different. Just more battle-worn; weary.

[ex_forcechoke292]

I see things that haven't happened yet. And I
No, it doesn't matter.

[It does. A great deal, or he'd have never brought it up. But he leaves it for now, not wanting to have even delved this far. It's not the same--he knows that, logically--but her explanation sounds so similar that it catches him off guard.]

It isn't always easy to discern a dream from the truth. Or if they're even different.

[juniberries]

Forgive me for disagreeing, but that does in fact sound like something that does matter.

[SORRY ANAKIN...she is nothing short of stubborn and opinionated.]

But you are correct; I do believe there are truths to be had in dreams, however, this is...far different from a dream. I have been talking to those I know from the universe from which I am taken.

The details are far too similar, and much more detailed than a dream would entail.

[ex_forcechoke292]

They don't always happen. Foresight is...dangerous. Some would say it shouldn't matter. [Or that he needs to forget about it, come what may, learn to let go...the list goes on. It is nice, however much he doesn't say so, to hear that someone takes it seriously.]

...So you lived through your future, but didn't? That sounds awful similar to prophecy.

[juniberries]

It is dangerous, but...it may be helpful at times. From the sound of it.

[After all, if her father her known about what was to become of Zarkon...

things might have been different.]

And yes, it appears that way. But still, I feel changed.
If they are events which others remember before coming here, it is hardly prophecy.
I think. It...had to have happened.

[ex_forcechoke292]

How is that possible? Unless I've missed a part of the story, that doesn't seem like it should be.

[Force, don't let this happen to him.]

[juniberries]

Our very being here, brought in via an anomaly, is as much as an impossibility as what I went through.
So I cannot tell you how it is possible, but it BEING possible is...well, I do not think it is impossible.

I apologize if I am not making any sense. I fear I may even be sounding mad to you.

[ex_forcechoke292]

I'll admit I'm still not sure what sense it makes, existence of anomalies aside, but it's not quite mad. Or I've heard worse, at least.

So you...went forward in time, but didn't, and your friends can corroborate events? That bodes well.

[If he has it right. He really hopes he doesn't. As far as he knows, all he has to look forward to is...nothing. A grave, some cold and dark expanse of space, whatever happens to the Jedi.]
