The dream realm is the space between body and soul. It contains the eternal dreams and memories of beings. Sometime in the past, the nightmare realm was split from the main dream realm.

Essence are the fragments of light that dreams are made of. The Radiance, a higher being who is brighter than Essence, likely holds the most power over the dream realm. Her descendants, the moth tribe, have the power to shape dreams. They possess the Dream Nail as well, which can cut through the veil that separates the waking world from the dream realm.

Dreams can take root as Whispering Roots, but they can also take the shape of those who have passed away, such as Ghosts. Furthermore, dreams can form based on memories. There are several dreams that The Knight can access in the dream realm.

Another type of Essence, Nightmare Essence, or "flame", is unique to the Nightmare Realm and their Troupe. This type of Essence manifests itself into flames which are gathered for the ritual.

Hidden Dreams These dreams are slightly different from others in that their Bosses can be refought multiple times, getting stronger with each defeat, before causing events to happen in the world that would seal them off forever.

Other Dreams These are dreams with other peculiar attributes that set them apart from normal dreams. Some may also not be yet considered a proper dream state.
