Nightmares Reimagined

[Nox]

Nox's eyes went wide. "The fuck! I do understand the disbelief. Not many would believe me if I told them the things I fought all my life. And fuck if they believe I had voices in my head that weren't my own." The horde on cue started scratching louder. "Well, Mara, I won't remember this in the morning. Not exactly sure if you will or not. My friend might draw me in the morning, and she'll call to check on me. But I won't be able to tell her more than I had nightmares."

Nox watched her drawings and wondered if they had any meaning.

But his words had nothing to do with what she was doing. "The Atharim are grateful for those who aren't believed. It saves them a bullet, or a reason to foster a kid. But electroshock therapy, how is that supposed to help." Nox chuckled. "I could prove that nightmares exist but you'd need to sacrifice a friend to do so. It's not easy to catch a nightmare in the real world, and the only ways I know are deadly for the creature. And not so healthy for the mark either."
