Ok so in this dream I was Cali. We had just returned from the cavern after god knows how long we were in there and Charlie and I had split up to do things around Emon. I assume, anyway. I didn't see Charlie or Nergil the entire dream so I can only assume they were making noise complaints in their room at the keep. I wanted to stop by and visit Circe, obviously, so I walked over to the mage tower to go say hi. But when I got there the guards in front of the place wouldn't let me in and said the whole place was under investigation. I assumed there was another accident with her magic but they then explained that she'd been missing for several days and no one has any idea what happened. I. Fucking. Snapped. I demanded they let me inside and when they wouldn't I tried to run past them. To no avail, of course, because Cali is not strong in the slightest and can't body past royal guards.
My yelling and cursing apparently caught the attention of Allura because she walked out as the guards were trying to wrangle me and told them to stop and for me to come with her. IDK where we went but she took me inside the castle and I was sat in a large room with a big table and archways and blah blah. Allura explained that Circe had gone off to meet up with someone several days back and neither she or the person she was going to see had responded since. Allura couldn't make contact with either and it'd been total radio silence. I was shaking with emotion and I think was in shock because I kept muttering how this wasn't happening and wasn't real and that I didn't understand. Literally the "how can she be gone, I just talked to her" type deal. Allura continued to explain saying the mage tower had a strange aura but there was nothing in it aside from a letter addressed to me. She said it was likely from Circe and that it was finished and sealed so I could open it now if I wanted. I did and the letter was totally blank aside from a single word.
"Check"
At that point I was seeing red. I was shaking with anger and I screamed and yelled at Bannister as if he was in the room with us. I tore him a new asshole in this angry rant and when I was done I punched the wall with the force of a god before breaking down crying. Allura was confused as hell so once I'd calmed down a bit I told her I knew what happened and I knew who took Circe. She suggested that we use some of her belongings and the letters we've gotten from Bannister to track the two of them so we did and suddenly the dream cut to somewhere else
I was in this large open church like room with a long hallway with stripes and triangles painted on it (it looked like a bowling alley >_>). There were massive archways above me and the room lead up to this sloped staircase where Bannister was standing. He opened his arms wide and began giving a BBEG monologue speech and I fucking was not having it and immediately shot him 74928374 times while screaming I was done with his bullshit and that he fucked up and I was not here to play his game I was here to get Circe. Me and Hans attacks did nothing and when the smoke cleared he was all "fine, if that's how you want to play". Then the rest of the church looked like your average bowling/arcade/pizza place and tried to force me into a bowling match to win Circe back. I fucking kicked his ass because the rules of bowling never state that you have to use a bowling ball so I just used my canon to blast all the pins down. I got a perfect game and because my pins shot fucking everywhere some landed on his lane and the bowling alley counted those as pins not knocked over so he lost by like 6 pins or something.
After that I blasted him again, several times, only this time my attacks seemed to work. Very well, actually, to the point he cast a spell to conjure a wall between us. I used shatter to break this wall before going right back to beating the shit out of him. At this point he was all "Fine, if you want Circe you go looking for her. Good luck" and he poofed somewhere else. I was then in a literal MC Esher painting with the weird stairways and absurdist building layout but I had magic and I could use that to track Circe so navigating the place was easy.
This is where I'm fucking devastated. So I find her in this dark room in a cage with all these TV screens all around us and there's blood goddamn everywhere. She's not conscious so I try picking the lock, fail, get mad, and blast the lock off the cage and slam it open. I managed to wake her up but she was clearly disoriented and confused. I told her Cali was here and that I was going to get her back home and tried to get her up so we could run but she kept saying she couldn't. I assumed it was due to blood loss so I picked her up like a child and just started running as fast as I could out of there. Bannister began attacking again at this point as I ran down the bowling alley to freedom so I just fucking blasted with reckless abandon until we got out. We got out, ran down a very long tunnel, and then I pulled a scroll of teleport from my bag and used it outside. Can only assume something about Bannisters house prevented me from using it sooner otherwise I would have.
Anyway, we ended up teleporting back to Scabbard Keep and at that point we were both soaked in blood and Circe was unconscious once again. Clearly she'd been hurt so I looked her over to see where the injury was so I could fix it and she had a fucking hole in her spine right above the tailbone. There were cuts and shit all up her spine at very specific points. I healed her as best I could and just sat there with her head in my lap petting her hair until she woke up again. I think I also checked her pulse at one point. When she woke up she asked where she was and told me she couldn't feel her legs and I just kept saying she was fine and that she'd be fine and that I was there and nothing else was going to happen to her. After that she asked if we could go back to the castle so she could report to Allura and I said yes but only after we got cleaned up because our clothes were literally dripping with blood.
I ran upstairs and got Troy to give me a bucket of water and a bunch of rags and then I got a set of extra clothes from my drawers and told Circe to clean herself up the best she could and get changed. I left her alone in my room to do this while I got cleaned up in another room. Once we were both clean and dressed I packed the bloodied clothes in a bag to clean later then picked her back up and began making my way off towards Allura. We did not get there before I woke up and during the walk there she was still talking about how she couldn't feel her legs and fuck I felt so fucking bad :(
