- This is a fictional Dreamtale AU, anything that happens is not canon to the original besides some backstory. It's recommended to know the lore of Dreamtale first before reading this.
Dream Joku hasn't seen or heard anything about his brother Nightmare in the last 50 years. His whereabouts were unknown, his allies were non-existent, and to put it short, nobody knew if he was even alive. But something strange has been going on.. On Dream's 582nd birthday, several hundred AUs started declining in positivity and immediately disappearing. With the AUs now stirred with fear and negativity, rumors spread of Nightmare's return.. but something was wrong with these rumors. Nightmare was described to be the size of a building, looming over all with an insane expression and evil in his heart. Dream, disregarding the rumors, sets out to go find his brother and make things right.. maybe even find a cure for his corruption. But until that happened, Dream had to be on his guard.
SUMMARY: It's been almost 75 years since Dream Joku, the Guardian of Positivity, has been freed from his stone prison. Able to breathe freely at last, he spent the next 25 years tirelessly battling his own brother, Nightmare Joku, the fallen Guardian of Negativity, who aims to destroy all feelings of happiness in the world; his very own brother. But after Nightmare was vitally struck, he suddenly disappeared and was not seen again for the next 50 years.
- Note: This AU is a spinoff of the original Dreamtale AU as well as their respected characters. I give full credit to the characters and backstory to their creators.
- The idea for this AU was inspired off of a mashup of creatures the size of a mountain, as well as several old folklore stories. (Concept idea came out in: ~ 04/??/2023)
PLEASE READ BEFORE GETTING INTO THE STORY
Description: Your name is (Y/n) and you are originally from an au called Dreamtale! Your life hadn't been the easiest however, but you were quick to always move forward despite this... Before Nightmare had become corrupted, you were his best friend and lover. You kept him from his breaking point, you maintained his sanity and most importantly... returned his love. One thing that is definitely important about yourself is that you are a selective mute... And your only desired partner for conversation is the King of Negativity himself... But what will happen once the true evil lurking within your lover drowns out whatever light he had left? What will happen when you discover that the Nightmare you knew was replaced by a monster that still somehow holds love for you?
"And even with the evil finally in control of Nightmare, if both his sinister side and his old self agreed on something- then it would always be his priority... They both love her."
This is practically my first story that I have ever decided to share online. It is quite a terrifying experience for me, so I hope that anyone who decides to read this will enjoy it. Anyway, I should probably inform my readers about a few things. First off, my primary language is not English, however, I will still be making an effort with my grammar! Second off, I will try and update this as frequently as possible... Even though I can get somewhat shy or concerned about how my work goes. Otherwise, all you will need to know is this:
(Y/n): Your name
(F/n): Friend name
(E/c): Eye color
(H/l): Hair Length
(H/c): Hair color
(S/c): Skin color
(F/c): Favorite color
Some things I will likely determine for the reader, but what is posted above will be the basics. Please also note that this story may contain some content that would be best for more mature audiences.
