"All I remember is a lullaby. I don't know who was singing this lullaby, but I know the woman had long blue hair and a gentle and calming voice. I saw tears falling like raindrops from her eyes, but I don't know why she was crying. What I remember the most is her smiling through her tears and singing the lullaby."
At that moment, a compassionate voice said, "How about you tell me this lullaby?"
"Ok, it will be a short story, but I will start with what I remember from the dream. In this dream, the lovely lady was holding a child. Her presence was warm and comforting. The child looked about two years old. I'm guessing the child was me because I was looking up at her, yet my vision was blurry. I was coddled in her arms as the tears from her face trickled down to mine. Then in a soft voice, she whispered…"
“My little Prince, I love you so much! No matter what happens, I want you to know that I love you and you are destined for greatness. I am sorry I will not physically be with you on this journey, but I will always be near you. I will be in your dreams and always walking beside you.”
At that moment, I heard a bang! The beautiful woman said, “My Prince, it is time for us to depart from each other.” As she said those words, I cried and she said in a gentle voice, “My Prince, you must be silent or they will find you!” For some reason, I could not stop crying. I believe deep down inside, I knew this was the last time I would see her. The banging grew louder and louder. As it intensified, so did my cries.

I looked up at the lady’s worried face as the tears continued to fall from her face to mine. At the moment she whispered, “My Prince, I will protect you and ensure our legacy lives on. Voco super pectus magicae!” As she spoke those words that I did not understand, a blue and gold chest appeared. She stood up with me coddled in her arms and gave me a kiss. For the last time, she said “I love you my Prince! Don’t forget me. and My one mission for you is to find your sisters!”
She laid me in the chest and closed it slowly. The chest was dark and cold. I heard the banging sound getting louder and I became very scared. I started crying just as loud as the banging sound. Then I heard the lovely lady say, “My Prince, do not be scared. I will sing your favorite lullaby.” Just then, I heard the most beautiful song I have ever heard in my life. The song went like this…
“Just close your eyes. The sun is going down. You’ll be alright. No one can hurt you now. Come morning light, you and I will be safe and sound…”
Then I heard a loud bang and everything was silent. Absolutely silent. At that moment, I knew I was alone and the dream was over. I never got out of the blue and gold chest and I don’t know what happened to the lovely, gentle lady with blue hair who sang the most beautiful lullaby I had ever heard.
