Chapter 1: The dream

Dal woke up in the middle of the night. Again this dream. For two weeks he had been dreaming only of that. Why did he have the same dream every night? He decided to ask Tai-San next day and went sleeping again.
He went to her next morning right after breakfast. He spoke to her.
Tai-San grumbled, "What do you want? You're intruding my meditations."
"I'm sorry, but you're the only one who can help me," Dal said.
"What can I do for you?" Tai-San asked.
Dal answered, "I have the same dream every night. You know all about this."
"If it's always the same dream it could be a vision. What do you dream of?"
"I always see Amber in this dream. Since the explosion I have only been thinking of her during the day, but I never dreamt of her till two weeks ago."
"Was that any special day when you had this dream first?"
"On this day exactly six years ago my parents and me moved to the house next to Amber. At that time we met each other and we became friends immediately. Since then we have celebrated all birthdays together. In two weeks she would be 15 years old."
"Then you have just now an especially big emotional bond to her." She gave him a necklace with a special stone. "I'm going to meditate in order to help you finding out what the dream shall mean. The stone on the necklace intensifies the positive energy that I release with my meditations."
