The concept for Reverie came to me in a dream. It felt like something was following me. I was nervous, n i kept moving, but when I looked behind me I couldnt see anything but my own shadow. I eventually started running, and suddenly I was up on a rooftop. I turned back, n when I looked at the ground I saw nothing but my shadow. But... It was more like I was staring into the endless void. 2 eyes in opened within it, then a dozen more, all leering at me. It pulled itself out of my shadow and towered over me, dripping darkness that dripped off like melting fat. i went to run, and nearly fell off the roof, but then 2 arms sprung out from my shadow and grabbed me, holding me over the edge for a second before they pulled me back. It was terrifying, but then I knew it didnt want to hurt me. It was a friend, and it was me.
