In great detail the dream was...as mentioned nirva seemed to chase and seek out the dream within the maze that was his head, Certain memories awoke inside of him such as his mother telling him the history of his ancestors. About how they were among the first people to learn the power of nature, wood. The side-effects of chasing the dream were taxing for he felt many of times in which he was about to wake up... Not before see'ing...them. Those creature that destroyed his village and slaughtered his relatives and friends, not to mention his mother...... In great detail this was; The creatures had the chest of a man but deformed bones that bent inwards and arms that split off to form other malnourished limbs....they seemed to possess the same alien power the alimbics bestowed upon humanity...this was troubling. 

He woke up in a cold sweat...remembering that it was just a dream. He had a long day ahead of him and so he exited hakubi's tent and went to report to his duties. Collect water...get firewood...all the jobs the other soldiers where to busy to do. As nirva noticed hakubi was seemingly gone, probably reporting to his barrack officers about getting a new light, the latest one busted due to a miss calculation of fire-worm fuel in the canister. Oh well, it would get sorted out...Not like a place like this frets over every single thing that breaks. And so nirva grabbed a pale and a axe from a nearby requisition station that had farming equipment...all sorts of things needed for a army or rather battalion of this size. 

He entered the forest with ease and found a nearby giant oak with a pseudo-lake under its roots. Like a giant mandrake root it towered above nirva and he couldnt help but be in awe. That was cut short when he saw people in green robes near the clearing...People of the forest as most people called them....zealotical monks that even though patient at times could be very violent.....chances are THEY were the prying eyes looking onto him when he and hakubi passed through just a day ago. He didnt stick around long enough to find out and hopped back to camp rather quickly.

Arriving back he noticed soldiers getting equipment and hakubi talking to the colonel which could mean only two things. Either he was getting a promotion...or its time to fight. Nirva dreaded the sound of the war drums most of all. And the sight of hakubi suiting up.... Nirva nervously twiddled a twig in his hands and it responded by patting him. He was still getting used to his new powers...how nature would comfort him when stressed. That was going to be put to the test however.......Instead of actually helping to fight them nirva had a feeling his job would be medical. Maybe due to the fact a officer was walking over to him with a field medic supplies pouch. Crude as it was and a surprising turn-out of events...today was shaping up to be quite interesting.
