Dreamland

Ares was yet in another dream, this time rising from the depth of the ocean and swimming up following a familiar sound that called to him. 

"Dragon tamer," he was called as he slowly rose to the surface. 

The weather was gloomy and he could sense that it would rain. The waves were disturbed by the wind, making a splashing sound as they hit land and there two women were standing, waiting for him. 

He walked over with steady determined steps as if he knew he would meet them. One of them was the first woman who appeared in his dream and called him a dragon tamer and the other woman he just knew was a tamer as well. 

Like himself. 

"Your Highness?" 

"Ares?" 

This felt so real. He could see her clearly. 

"You are... alive." She said stepping closer. 

He stepped closer to her as well and then she carefully reached for him. She grasped his arm as if making sure it was real. He felt her touch. Was this truly a dream?
