medieval fairytale

okie i had a dream just now. i had this dream before. but ironically i *knew* that i had this dream before *in the dream itself*.

The period was in some sort of medieval times. The starting scene was in some sort of ballroom in a castle of sorts at night time. i was just a peasant kid. The king was about to bestow upon one of his knights a magical sword, a knight that was loyal. Somehow meanwhile there was a knight among the crowd that was plotting to take possession of the magical sword and take over the kingdom.

Contrary to what happened the previous time i had this dream, instead of the scheming knight taking over the sword in a coup on the spot, the scheming knight (let's label him X) held back, advised by an evil sorceror. And to my amazement(due to my recollection of the same scene but with different events occurring), the ruler bestowed the magical sword upon the scheming knight!

Then something strange happened this time round. All the knights including the king all had this lanyard or some magical sign hanging from their necks, like a talisman that protects them. The talismans were in square shapes and inside the square shapes were cutouts of different talisman signs. So when the king was about to hand the sword over to X, his talisman was broken, along with X's. everyone was shocked. Practically the whole kingdom was there to witness the event.
As if everyone knew something sinister and evil was about to happen, all ran helter-skelter to evacuate the location. X was pissed he did not get hold of the magical sword. The king was shocked that things would turn out like that. Everyone was in a state of panic trying to leave the castle before some great beast comes in and takes them away.

Me, I ran back to my little cottage, and barricaded the door. I went to my little cupboard and took out a magical storybook from behind a hidden compartment. I wanted to read the book because I knew instinctively everything that had happened was written in the book. I tried to read the book from halfway where I left off. But it was taking too long as the book was pretty thick.

I was scared. I knew before long(from the previous similar dream), that I'll be hunted down by the magical beasts banging at the door of my cottage trying to get in. They knew that the book was in my possession and wanted it for themselves. Somebody evil had written in the book, that these beasts were to be released and wreak havoc in the kingdom.

Straight away, I took out a feather pen(medieval times how can have ball point pen!) and started writing in the book on a fresh page. I wrote something like "And this book never existed.", and paused for a while before deciding that in order for my last sentence to realise, I have to place it back in the secret compartment. I placed it in and wished for the best.

And I woke up because somebody called my handphone by accident. So no more story for today. =_=
