As a child, Lily had always been fascinated by dreams. She loved listening to her grandmother's stories about the mystical world of the subconscious, where the boundaries of reality were stretched and the impossible became possible.
But Lily's fascination with dreams went beyond mere curiosity. She had a secret: she could travel through them.
It started when she was eight years old. Lily would fall asleep and find herself transported to vivid, surreal landscapes that felt more real than her waking life. She would soar through vibrant blue skies filled with clouds, explore ancient ruins, and dance with creatures that defied explanation.
When she became 16 yrs old things started to get serious. Inside her dream,
Lily found herself in front in a training session, Each student are given a pair of white magnificent wings and a trainer. The objective of the lesson is for them to learn how to fly, hunt & fight.
As Lily stood among her peers, she couldn't help but feel a mix of excitement and trepidation. Her trainer, a tall and stern-looking woman with green eyes, introduced herself as Miss Elara.
"Today, we'll be learning the fundamentals of flight," Elara announced, her voice firm but commanding. "Remember, control and precision are key. Don't be afraid to take risks, but don't be reckless either."
As the training session progressed, Lily's fear of heights became increasingly apparent. While her peers seemed to glide effortlessly through the skies, Lily's anxiety grew with each passing moment. Her wings trembled, and her breathing quickened.
Elara noticed Lily's struggles and approached her. "Lily, focus on your strengths," Elara advised. "Your skills in hunting and combat are impressive. Let's work on building your confidence in those areas."
Lily nodded, feeling a sense of relief. She excelled in hunting and fighting, her instincts and reflexes guiding her. With Elara's guidance, she honed her skills, learning new tactics and strategies.
However, whenever they transitioned to flight training, Lily's fear resurfaced. Elara worked patiently with her, but progress was slow. Lily began to wonder if she'd ever overcome her fear.
Lily's sense of relief grew as she observed her peers struggling with different aspects of training. She realized she wasn't alone in her fears and weaknesses.
One student, a quiet and reserved girl named Aria, struggled with hunting due to her aversion to confrontation. Another student, a bold and confident boy named Kael, was terrified of getting hurt in combat.
Lily approached Aria and Kael, feeling a sense of camaraderie. "Hey, I'm Lily. I saw you guys struggling with hunting and combat. I'm actually really bad at flying."
As the days went by, Lily's friends, Aria and Kael, made significant progress in their hunting and combat skills, thanks to Lily's guidance and support.
However, despite Aria and Kael's best efforts to help Lily with flying, she still struggled to overcome her fear. No matter how many times they encouraged her or broke down the techniques into smaller steps, Lily's anxiety held her back.
As the training lessons came to a close, the students were assigned to their respective roles based on their strengths. Those who excelled in flying would provide support, serving as the "eyes in the sky" and gathering crucial information from a distance. Meanwhile, those who demonstrated exceptional skills in hunting and fighting would take on the frontline roles, responsible for taking down targets and executing missions.
Lily was assigned to the frontline, joining Aria and Kael. However, her struggles with flying still lingered. That's when Miss Elara introduced her to Raven, a skilled flyer with exceptional abilities.
"Raven, I'd like you to work with Lily," Miss Elara said. "Perhaps your expertise can help her overcome her fear."
Lily's initial reaction to Raven is complex, with a mix of emotions. On the surface, she's smiling and willing to work with Raven, but beneath that, she's harboring fears and uncertainties.
