*Bzzzzt* "He-" *Bzz* "Hello?...Can you hear me? We got it, don't change anything!"
"Ehem....Okay you might be wondering what this is all about right? Well first of all my names Knut's. Crazy name right, I'm a nightmare cat in what you now know as Dreamland, but im not just any street cat, I'm THE street cat, well im not even a street cat but you get the point."
"Secondly, this is a Dreamworld wide broadcast to all you people out there who have just awoken to our world, Dreamland. I know its become common place in you're world now but we think you still need an introduction so congratulations on becoming a Traveler! You may not be the first, but hey its still a joyous occasion. So here's the run down, when you Travelers turn 18 and conquer you're fears or nightmare, you awaken to the truth of you're dreams and realize that there is more too them then meets the eye.......Wait, what you're telling me its changed? Hold on for a moment people..."
*Bzzt*
"Dammit you tell me this now? Stupid lucky stars changing the rules. Ehem...Again welcome, now because the world of Dreamland has become wide spread knowledge in you're world the rules had to be changed. First things first, since you are already aware Dreamland exists, when you become 18 you go through a trial.... Not just any trial, you have to face you're worst nightmare and overcome it, but instead of it being like before these trials are 100 times harder and after you succeed you become a Traveler, if you fail you become Dreamless for a set period of time and have to try again at a later date, Well I'll be damned.... They basically turned our world into a MMO."
"Well as i was saying, After you become a Traveler, you're fear or nightmare becomes you're power, for example if you were afraid of fire or water, you would gain the ability to wield those elements in different forms depending on you're own view point, now most of you might have figured all this out already but protocol is protocol. Next.... Throughout you're time in Dreamland if you ever get hurt no matter how badly it will never reflect back into you're world, when you come back to Dreamland by sleeping you will find yourself as good as new. NOW, death... Death in Dreamland has changed a lot, before when you died you would simply go back to being a normal dreamer, losing all you're power as well as you're memories of Dreamland, but now since everyone knows about Dreamland you simply incur a penalty, I told you its basically a MMO. "
"These penalties are completely given out at random, but the most basic Penalty is you become Dreamless for a set period of time, not as long as the time you fail you're trial but time none the less. There are more harsh penalties such as becoming a normal dreamer and losing you're power or in other cases you're memory, penalties such as these are given to only the most heinous of Travelers. Because of the influx of Travelers, more Overseers have become active to govern and judge you when you die, we are basically the law....Yep you guessed it, yours truly is a Overseer, see im not just any street cat haha.

"That covers you're basic overview of a Traveler, now onto Dreamland itself. Dreamland is split into 5 fast zones, the first being the safest zone and were all new Travelers start, the second zone is also called the "Main Zone" and this is were mostly every Travelers stay the first two zones although small compared to other zones are governed by you're own kind aka Travelers. You see aside from the Overseers who only hand down the punishments upon death and also keep an eye out on anything that could prove dangerous to both worlds, there are others who govern the land itself such as Nightmare Lords! The lords of Nightmare Land are very powerful figures, beside them are the Lords of Dreams who rule the Dream Kingdoms and then the Lords of Travel, or Travelers. They enforce laws such as not killing other Travelers or natural inhabitants of Dreamland, The other lords also have the power to punish Travelers or their own people who break the law."
"Now as i was saying the third zone, which was once the land of nightmares and ruled by the Nightmare Lords, is now used to call the land where the several Dream kingdoms are, such as the Cat Kingdom, the Dog Kingdom, the Unicorn Kingdom, the Kingdom of wonderful playfulness, blah blah blah you get where im going, its basically the all the kingdoms of nice dreams and nightmares."
"The fourth zone now known as the land of nightmares, are as i said before ruled by the Nightmare Lords, you can find anything that you don't want in a dream in this zone including bad Travelers. The fifth and last zone that is currently traversable, is a completely unknown zone to anyone who isn't a Overseer or strong enough to walk those lands and face its many dangers, thats all i can say about it for now but don't worry, if you're brave enough go for it. That ends our little broadcast, have fun newbies and don't cause too much grief for us see you around if you're good enough haha-"

"......I'm a Traveler?" A black haired youth can be seen, surrounded by mysterious rocks that seem to project his thoughts. He spins around and around looking at his own thoughts being shown before him, even some thoughts he didn't even know he was thinking.
'I'm a Traveler!' 'Grandpa said to wake up early' 'I wonder if i should shower before i go to school' 'Why's my butt itchy' 'This is weird' 'I believe i can fly!' 'What O.o' '@%@%@%@)(&%@$%@'
