Chapter 2: Dreams

The land of Dreams is a place where peace can be found,

Where hope exposed,

Where truth is seen

Where love flies

Where passion is explored

Where unrequited love may be requited

The dream realm a place that many see, but few remember with its golden light of perfect summer days, under sweet summer sun in its orchards of pink blooms, with its perfumed winds. The perfect day in summer where anything is possible if we just believe and the magic of the midsummer where the lazy days seem never to end and you do not wish them too, this the dream realm where the hero's of the past wait for the time when they may be need again and may enjoy the peace they did not know in the real world.

The last of six ancient warriors, the lunar wolf ranger, the man once known as Atsu – Khons a Prince of Egypt before he gave it all up for her and took the name Merrick, walks through a place that held so many memories of his pasted the orchard outside the palace in Animarium with its bright crystal clear lake in its middle, he see his refection as he remembered millenniums ago from his bare chest and loincloth to his princes lock. 'This is exactly how I remember it, down to the last petal on the fruit trees, the smell of jasmine on the wind and the palace with white towers coming out of its own garden,' Merrick thought as he heard laughter behind him and before he knew it his ribs were being crushed in bear hug from his brother in-law Thor, the blond Norse man who Danny Delgado look like a kitten in size and behind him the rest of the warrior who became his family three thousand years ago.

"Merrick is it you and you're not Zen-Aku…" Devana the youngest of all the warriors squealed, as she jumped up to hug him and Thor.

"Merrick," Orpheus the only true demigod among them with his wife Eurydice shouted and joined in the group hug.

"Brother," Kissa screamed and jumping on the group hug turning it into a dog pile on top of Merrick.

Then Merrick did something had not truly done in three millennium he cried at how quickly his family showed their loved for him and then laugher came striate from his gut, with joy had only every felt when held his beloved.
