    NOT A FULL VIDEO. I recorded all of this for a video, but only used part of it in said video. I'm still editing the music for the next video, which should be out tomorrow or Sunday, but I thought I'd upload the full version of "Ragnarok" beforehand. There does not appear to be an English reading of it on RUclips. The next video is far more substantial.

      @steelmote The only thing these videos have in common is surprise and quality. Love it

    Man it's crazy how we can have all these elaborate stories and worlds in our dreams, just to vanish in the morning. Especially since they only last literal seconds outside of our mind.

      I always try to write down as much as I remember in the morning haha. Makes for good writing prompts. Strange, but good.

      According to my dream journal, my sleeping mind is very different from my waking mind. Its odd that all those worlds (or that world) ends in the morning.

      ⁠@@Pseudiom’That’ other world doesn’t cease to exist with the daylight, it continues dreaming of us. Perhaps.

    The dreamer parenthetically notes the “heavy pistols” with which they cheerfully killed the Gods “suddenly appeared.” Modern technology is developed by small circles of specialists working behind the scenes of our everyday world. Then their technological product suddenly appears, advertised in the common marketplace of ideas and commodities.
    The end of the fantastic landscape of a dream begins as the mind starts reorganization back to reality, using actual ideas and physical objects as reference points.
    Obviously the dreamer has a lot of confidence- their pistols actually worked, and on the Gods, at that!

    El sueño (autor de representaciones), en su teatro, sobre el viento armado, sombras suele vestir de bulto bello.
    I won't dare to translate this verse, one of the most beautiful ever written in Spanish, Pseudiom, but always comes to my mind when people talk of dreams. To any other viewers, you can consult The Book of Dreams compiled by Borges for more dreamers dreaming dreamers dreaming dreams.

    That opening quote, makes me think of the short story In Dreams Begin Responsibilities by Delmore Schwartz. Highly recommend it to everyone, if you've not read it.

      Interesting. I read the synopsis. I will try to give it a look at some point.
