This is why you pay attention to dreams...

Unread post by Sarai »

(Copy/pasting from my blog cause I'm lazy)

I was woken up at around 5ish this morning by a dream of Lark finding Ban'thalos and taming him. I almost got up then to log on and see if he was up, but since my brain at that point was the only part of me that was awake... yea, didn't get to it. Funny thing is, when I went back to sleep I dreamed it all over again... and again, until my alarm went off and I had to get up. I thought again of turning the PC on and logging in real fast to check, but I didn't quite leave myself enough time before I had to leave for work.

Fast forward. I had almost forgotten all about it by the time I was home again. Wound up taking a nap (no dreams this time) then logged into Runes of Magic for a bit. Dinked around, leveled my druid there, then remembered that I needed to check for Lark's last Lieutenant of Flame before bed. Started WoW, logged on Lark and headed to Hyjal.

As she flew I started thinking about my dream, and thought it'd be funny if I got to Malorne's shrine and he was actually there. I headed there, just to check, instead of going straight to Molten Front.

Then NPC_Scan went off. It was Ban'thalos.

I was sure it was a tamed pet, but clicked the pop-up anyway, and saw a yellow portrait pop up. I think my heart stopped right there. I frantically headed over to the tree while calling to my sis to bring one of her toons, in case I needed her to sacrifice-pull him into range, but Lark landed on the tree after just a couple tries. Dropped the trap, then flew back up and waited for him to fly back into range.

A dwarf pally was flying around him up in the air, and I started thinking the "Oh please don't" mantra. He didn't touch Banthy, thank goodness, and in a few seconds he was in range. One arcane shot, then popped haste pot/deterrence/tame once she landed, and Banthy obligingly chased her into the trap. Tame went off without a hitch. The only damage she took was a bit from the fall.

I am still hoarse from squeeing, but at least my hands have stopped shaking. XD Now all Lark needs is Skarr, and her stable will be done.

I had a dream about flying like a bird some 2 years ago. As soon as I woke up, I rolled a NElf druid. To this day, I scorn all mounts on my druid and solely use flight form. Its an amazing ability and really did give me that same feeling I had in the dream. Haha. So my druid was born from a dream. Dreams are important sometimes, and can lead people to things they didn't think they'd ever do/get otherwise (I refused to always level a druid because they looked so complicated, turned out they are wonderful and very easy).

Congrats! He looks great with you :) Love the name too :)
And I know the dream thing works, I have dreamed about taming pets and got them that same day upon waking up/logging in.
It's like this nagging little voice that tells you "Be there NOW!" and you just have to obey!
