oh gosh we hadn't really thought of it exactly before

During his testing period, Levi does actually get glimpses into Adam's world via his dreams. Actually, he's been getting these dreams since around the time he first came out as trans - so since he was about 13 and a half.

Because of when the dreams started, Levi initially chalked them up to being him essentially envisioning his transition goals in these dreams. But as time passed and he started to get more of these dreams and learn more about Adam in particular through them, he abandoned that idea. Of course, being raised from birth in the Eye of the Fallen God, Levi is VERY aware of the belief about alternative worlds and how they work, so there was definitely the thought that these dreams were connected to another world in his head - though at first, Levi's theory was that these dreams were creating a new world.

This is until about a year later, when Levi met Evelyn for the first time. Because of course, it wasn't JUST Adam that Levi's dreams were catching sight of - Evie and Bryan tend to be quite present in the dreams as well.

Imagine being Levi in this situation - for the past year (and a few months), you've been consistently dreaming about a young man who physically is a visage that you yearn to grow up to have, whose name is one letter off from your legal/government surname (Levi Adams), but is also in terms of personality, beliefs and interests pretty much your exact OPPOSITE. In these dreams, the man has a girlfriend and a best friend who YOU have assumed until this point were just creations of your imagination, as they didn't match anyone you knew IRL. But then, during your first days of your first year of high school, a new girl moves into town that looks not exactly like the man's girlfriend, but definitely looks VERY similar. With a remarkably similar name to boot. And then once you actually meet her properly, she reveals that she has a childhood friend back in her hometown that has almost the EXACT SAME NAME AS THE FRIEND OF THE MAN IN YOUR DREAMS with the ONLY differences being a different surname and the first name having a slightly different spelling (Brian instead of Bryan). And of course, things get even crazier throughout the years and you eventually start dating that girl AND the girl's childhood friend also eventually moves to your town and ends up becoming your dormmate in college.

So, suffice to say, Levi's view on his dreams shift from "my mind's ponderings of what my life would be like if I was a cis man is creating a new world somewhere in the multiverse" to "I think this world in my dreams might have already existed and my dreams peering into it are some sort of variation of prophetic dreams", especially because his father Percy IS the appointed prophet of his religion and reportedly has quite a few prophetic dreams himself.

Levi's very much debated telling his parents about these dreams, especially in the recent few years after Brian moved to Cate's Crossing. The only reason he doesn't?

... At some point, Levi caught word within one of his dreams that Adam seemingly holds some sort of religious belief that ISN'T The Eye. And Levi's scared that that specific point would make people believe that Levi is having doubts in The Eye.
