So uh I had a dream a few days ago...

It was quite the weird dream. In fact, any dream I remember is a weird one, just like one where it involved me getting kidnapped to Mexico after I just went to Mexico for vacation irl.

Anyways, the dream I had was basically me trapped in a mansion (possibly Roswaal's bc he's being a scary clown and haunting me in there) with Chid-chan and we cant find a way out and I did some weird return by death stuff and then I woke up and went to school.

Question: do y'all believe dreams are depictions of you in a parallel universe?

Y/N POV

"Flugel's Tree... that feels like it was so long ago, you know, Y/N?"

"I suppose you can even call that the good old days at this point, ey? Haha!"

While Subaru and I reminisced a little about our achievements, Meili trotted over and seemed to be interested in the tree.

"Yeah. Right, there's a damn huge tree that grew on the Lifaus Plains in the Kingdom of Lugnica, and it was called Flugel's Great Tree. It's so huge that it's said that it may have almost reached past the clouds; it was something that could really tickle at your male instincts."

"That's an interesting way to describe it..."

"Woah! Can we go visit it one day, Y/N nii-san?" Meili's eyes started to glitter with excitement as she looked at me with expectant eyes.

"Possibly. Im surprised that we actually missed that location. By the way, Subaru, you were going to chop that tree down, were you not?"

"Well, I thought that that was indeed the best way to kill the White Whale. I mean, anything would always get crushed by something that's larger than itself. It's funny how we were so afraid of the White Whale due to its sheer size at the beginning, when there's a much larger living being next to us."

"If Onii-san really chopped the tree down, I would set my new fluffy lion on you!"

"Actually, Meili, since he now has a whip made from your previous Guiltylowe, so I'm pretty sure he might even train it by accident."

"My mabeasts will never listen to someone else! They're loyal!"

"Okay, okay..." Patting Meili's head as she settled into my lap, I continued the conversation as Omega came back from a brief reunion session with Shaula.

"Say, Omega, how exactly were you involved with the Watchtower's construction? I thought you lived in your mansions high above the clouds back in the days gone." I questioned, slightly puzzled.

"I was involved with many things that occurred in this world, Y/N. Many of which you don't know and hence don't need to know until the time comes."

"There you go, being all mysterious again..."

"But part of the reason I came here was to assist Daphne in her creation with Flugel on that little scorpion over there. I simply had to monitor the situation."

"And?" I knew Echidna wouldn't simply just let all the information loose by herself. So I chose to add on a little pressure.

"And I was interested in the pure design of the structure. I did build my part of the Watchtower, mind you. The only problem is... I forgot where I put it."

"You... forgot where you PUT IT?"

"Well, the whole floor that I made was straight out of an entire spellbook I wrote back then, and since the spellbook vanishes right after construction... which happened to be a time I was away from the Watchtower, I didn't have time to actually pinpoint its location. And I have long forgotten what exactly I wrote."
