The Dream Realm is a plane beyond the physical world. It is the space between body and soul, containing the eternal dreams and memories of beings.

Characteristics The Dream Realm consists of numerous dreams which vary depending on the being who brought it into existence. Dreams can take the shape of those who have passed away, such as Ghosts, or dreams can form based on memories. Furthermore, dreams can take root in the waking world as Whispering Roots.

Essence are the fragments of light that dreams are made of. 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.

Essence can be seen as floating particles in the background of most dreams. Essence particles can have different colours depending on the dream. When Warrior Dreams or the Radiance are hit, Essence particles emit from them. After their defeat, Essence continuously spills from their bodies.

Access

A veil exists which separates dreams from the waking world. It is normally impossible to travel between these realms at will. Powerful beings such as the Dreamers can trap others inside dreams from which they can never escape.

The Dream Nail, a talisman created by the Moth Tribe, can be used to cut through this veil between dreams and waking. While it allows its wielder access to almost any dream, there are some dreams that are protected from its power. The Dream Nail can be awoken when it has absorbed enough Essence, after which no dream can hide itself from its wielder.

It is also possible to use dreams to travel between locations in the waking world. The Dreamgate is an ability of the Dream Nail which allows the wielder to travel instantly through dream, provided that the area in the waking world has a strong connection to a dream.

History Sometime in the past, the nightmare realm was split from the main dream realm.

The Radiance, a higher being who is brighter than Essence, Her descendants, the moth tribe, have the power to shape dreams.
