To Sleep In The Sea Of Time

To Sleep In The Sea Of Time

This is a story of a guy who loses everything, and then gets it back. Same old new world story, just a different kind of story teller. *** They took away our hunter tags. They had us grow our hair. They gave us a new brand, when we were over there. They staged us out of Dragur, East of the Olim Horn. I guess they call us Slaves, but no one calls us much anymore. There is no fun in killing. I don't want to do it anymore. Karn brought Sorrow. Pookie brought Fear. Milk brought the fly boys. They did work in Undia. I worked mostly clandestine. Some Legends I should not say. We played with better wands. I could use the extra pay. Did Mara give the order? Did venom pay the way? They said we were slaying demons, but it was kind of hard to tell. There is no fun in killing. I don't want to do it anymore. This was before HALO, and Codex was king. Hej atop the rider, he never felt a thing. When our rider caught a spell, and both the mages killed. It pitched us over sideways on some cold Sylph hill. My back felt like it was broken, my legs I could not feel. I kept on slaying demons, but it was kind of hard to tell. There is no fun in killing. I don't want to do it anymore. I never did heal up right from injuries sustained Officially in Torin, unofficially we train. I remember all their faces. They dream about me still. I guess I'm slaying demons, but it's kind of hard to tell. There no fun in killing. I don't want to do it anymore. I speak the cold logistic, that old boys speak so well. Veni, Vedi, Vici. I'll see you in Hel. Maybe it's bravado, or an unspeakable guilt. That village, they were demons, but it was kind of hard to tell. There is no fun in killing. I don't wanna to do it anymore. I've done plenty. What is one more? -Corb Lund *** Come guess me this riddle. What beats shire leaves and fiddle? What is hotter than pleasures touch, and whiter than cream? What best wets his whistle? What is clearer than crystal? What is sweeter than honey and stronger than steam? What will make the lame walk? What will make the dumb talk? What is the elixir of life and philosopher's stone? And what helped Pookie-Baba dig up a tunnel, that runs from Shalamanda to West-Torin? When you are digging a crater, It is the best thing in nature, for sinking your sorrows and raising your joys. Sometimes I wonder, if lightning and thunder, is made out of the plunder, of the reddest hiski and oils. *** If you can keep your head when all about you, are losing theirs and blaming it on you. If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, but make allowance for their doubting too. If you can wait and not be tired by waiting, or being lied about, don’t deal in lies, or being hated, don’t give way to hating, And yet don’t look too good, nor talk too wise. If you can dream, and not make dreams your master. If you can think, and not make thoughts your aim. If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster, and treat those two impostors just the same. If you can bear to hear the truth you’ve spoken, twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools, or watch the things you gave your life to, broken, and stoop and build them up with worn-out tools. If you can make one heap of all your winnings, and risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss and lose, and start again at your beginnings, and never breathe a word about your loss. If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew, to serve your turn long after they are gone, and so hold on when there is nothing in you; Except the Will which says to them ‘Hold on!’ If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue, nor walk with Kings, nor lose the common touch. If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you. If all men count with you, but none too much. If you can fill the unforgiving minute, with sixty seconds worth of distance, run. Yours is the World and everything that’s in it, and which is more you’ll be a Man, my son. - Rudyard Kipling

Seeing Crime Scenes in My Sleep

Seeing Crime Scenes in My Sleep

[Mystery/Crime Solving + Mental Illness + Doted On By Everyone + No CP] A week ago, whenever Jiang Li slept, she would find herself either dismembering a body or on the way to dispose of one. When she saw that a serial murder case in the news matched her dreams exactly, she decided to turn herself in. At the police station, she dreamed of killing someone again, only to realize upon waking up... She had gained the first-person perspective of a criminal! Right at the beginning, she sent her human-trafficker adoptive father to the police station. As a result, just after returning, she dreamed of herself driving a car and running over a whole street of people! After a careful investigation, it turned out to be the largest trafficking organization. The moment she closed her eyes, she saw herself chopping meat again, so she had no choice but to call the police once more. Later... "Officer Ji, I..." As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw the police officer squatting by her bed, looking at her with gleaming eyes. Before she could finish speaking, he excitedly stood up. "Let's go, let's go! We get it, we get it!" Afterwards, it was almost as if they had moved the entire police station into her house, eating and living together with her. "Jiang Li, you're awake? Are there any new cases?" "Jiang Li, Jiang Li, are you sleepy?" "Jiang Li, Jiang Li, handcuffs in the left hand, gun in the right, we're always ready!" Further on, as the cases unfolded, her life story came to the surface, and everything became traceable.

How can adult sleep stories help with sleep?
Adult sleep stories are beneficial for sleep as they can distract from the daily chaos. When we listen to or read a sleep story, our attention is diverted from the things that keep our minds active at night like work deadlines or relationship issues. They can also set a mood. A story with a soft - spoken narrator and a calm plot can signal to our body that it's time to wind down. The descriptive language used in these stories, such as describing the feel of a warm bed or the smell of freshly cut grass, further relaxes the senses and aids in falling asleep.

How can adult sleep stories help with sleep?
These stories work because they create a calm and relaxing atmosphere. For an adult, who may have a lot on their mind, like work deadlines or family issues, a sleep story provides an escape. A story about a peaceful meadow, where the grass sways gently in the wind and there are butterflies flitting about, can slow down the racing thoughts. The rhythm of the storyteller's voice and the gentle flow of the plot can also be very soothing, like a lullaby for grown - ups.
