A Dream and a Turtle

Unread post by Phyress »

Last night I had a dream, which is very unusual for me. I dreamed I tamed Terrorpene and named her Bombshell, with another person I did not know standing nearby. I woke up and went about about my day normally, trying to ignore my dream. I did not like Terrorpene very much and never had any interest in taming.

The thought of my dream never left though, so I decided to sit by one of Terrorpene's spawn points while I watched TV just for giggles. I got bored and logged after an hour, for 30 minutes, then got back on. Not 10 minutes after logging back on I got a weird feeling to fly to my left. I followed my urge and ran into a giant turtle, Terrorpene! I quickly began to tame her, during which a random mage flies down from nowhere and congratulates me. I was in awe of how similar this was to my dream, so I decided to name my new turtle Bombshell and I'm slowly getting a liking for her.

What I find interesting though is a few days ago a box turtle showed up at my house (Box turtles are pretty rare where I live. They sadly end up getting hit by cars and all the deforestation is slowly pushing them, and other animals, away.) This little turtle had more orange on her than I've ever seen on a box turtle. I put her in my backyard and gave her a tomato, which she quickly ate. Like any animal in my yard, the turtle got a name. My brother named her, Bombshell.

Awww! Take a picture of the backyard Bombshell!

A dream was how I lvl'd a druid. I dreamt I was flying around like a bird, so I did the unthinkable and clicked Night Elf Female Druid and voila...Ellysetta the resto druid lives and loves to fly. I adore flight form and will never give it up for any mount. Dreams affect us way more than we think. There are even many interpretations of dreams, like people having true-dreams. The turtle dream seemed like one, as did my druid dream.

Grats on both turtles! Now go take a pic of the real live terrorpene!

I love that Bombshell wants to be with you so badly, he spawned IRL too. xD

TP seems to be doing this a lot this patch....

Currently, my Terrorpene -- named Symir -- is my most used tanking pet. I just love the way he puffs black smoke like a little steam locomotive.
