"Oh, so these are stats. I can figure out what they mean. It's much like a game, but I've never played those things. I mean, my husband tried to make me, but I had so many other things I could do, and so I gave my time to those things. Work was important to pay the bills; he never understood that. Gee, anyways, how can I level up?"

The class glowed, revealing interest to answer my question. I promptly focused on it as it opened up.

Okay, good. It seems I've done that already. So I guess I can take a nice nap. My work's done for the day, and I don't know how, as I see nothing has changed in the area. I guess I did it. If I assume, it's probably at the beginning when I was emerging from the ground. That's the only thing that makes sense. Well, this is a job for lazy people. Thank you, goddess! Nappy-time. *Yawn*

While I slept, I would travel down into my old life. My dreams were peaceful and the best; I dreamed of being a princess from China and even learning that aliens had been visiting the outer system of ours. Each dream was not interrupted by anything like an alarm. I had lost track of time as I slept away in another world so full to myself. The only catch was that I knew I was in a dream. How?

It was akin to lucidly dreaming, in control of the dreams meant I wasn't fully asleep but rather just resting without the need to awake. The outside world was muted as I did this, and it was a blessing at least. However, thunder from the outside world would occasionally jerk me back to real-time as I would check in to see the place. Yep, still dead. Dead as before, little greens of change emerging but overall dead. Returning to myself as I slept, relaxing my mana into the area once in a while as it built up too much, even after surprisingly suppressing it a whopping 43 count! I would continue to re-dream away in my little peaceful travels of rest.

Waking up to notifications, the crunchy sounds of a bird chirping about as it flew away, then the nice sunshine becomingly amazing. It was like having to wake up after a long, nice, well-deserved rest. Stretching my little leaf on my head, I now looked at myself. Wow. I was growing! I looked so beautiful, with one little cutest leaf on my head! Ahhhhh! So cute! Huh! The realization of the area with rainbow-colored grass and more so, flowers of all random colors! I am in love! This is my little garden! "How do I claim this as my domain?"

I got nothing back. Hmm? Okay. Maybe if I use my magic, like to create an area of a fence, I can then keep my little flower garden safe? Okay. I would focus on the feeling I had used before while I was in the ground, and this time, like a dam, I was massive! Quickly, I knew somehow that if I did release it all, something horrid would happen. After all, everything needs moderation. Commonsense!
