[b]Takes place Turn 5[/b]

Having taken a brief nap after the creation of their new moon, Aethel now had a new priority; Making the place comfortable to call home. A matter that required a degree of thought... through made somewhat easier with the very early decision to leave the part of the moon that would always be facing the planet below untouched. After all, they didn't want anything that might interfere with the light that it cast; They had spent time making sure that the display when the light of their moon mingled with the red glow of the other one was captivating, beautiful and terrifying at the same time. Because art needed to be able to be viewed in a number of different, equally valid ways. 

It also appeared that someone had been inspired by their work of art in order to create a heavenly body of their own... through in their case they hadn't created a proper moon. More just grabbed a big rock and did things to it so that it could produce life or something. Honestly seemed like a bit of a rushed job and it wasn't likely to draw too much attention below, but maybe they would visit it at some point. Might be quint. 

At any rate, they had a whole dark side of their moon to do things with!

After all, this was a realm designed for Aethel by Aethel. A place only for them that they could fall back to when they wanted to have a rest or take a break from dealing with affairs on the planet below. However as beautiful and relaxing as it was, the equine felt the need to add something a little... [i]chaotic[/i] to the mix. After all, apathy was a tragedy and boredom was a crime and they needed something about the place to give it that little bit of randomness.

The end result of this was the creation of the [url=https://png.pngtree.com/png-clipart/20190902/original/pngtree-a-pale-yellow-sydney-png-image_4410463.jpg]a fey looking fruit with pale white skin.[/url] It had no seeds and only grew on trees that could grow and survive in an environment that was heavily infused with dream energy. Such trees were dotted around Aethel's domain at random, but it was the flavor that was the biggest twist of the fruit. Namely, they (or anyone for that matter) would know what any individual fruit was going to taste like until they had bitten into it. 

The fruit itself was infused with the essence of dreams. For every dream that developed within the Sea of Dreams, its essence would seep into a single fruit. This process didn't effect the dreamer or the dream itself, but it did mean that every fruit was one of a kind. Of course, not all dreams were created equal. By the nature of such things, some of the fruit would contain the unforgettable, life changing flavors of a grand dream... or haunting nightmare. Most would be more middling and average, ranging from delicious to unpleasant and bad tasting. Some were simply so foul and toxic that consuming one would possibly be fatal if a mortal tried it; And it was impossible to tell which fruit was which until after teeth had broken the skin. 

Sure, Aethel didn't have a risk of death if they ate one of the [i]really[/i] bad ones, but they would still need to experience the flavor. One could quickly grow tired of 'perfection' if one didn't also experience mediocrity and the bad in order to remind one why the good was [i]Good[/i] after all.  


[hider=Summery]
Aethel claims their moon as their domain before decorating their new home. They also notice Ia’Akhul's new rock/moon and make a mental note to visit at some point.

The side of the Dreamer's Moon facing the planet is left alone so as not to interfere with the light show, while the dark side of the moon is turned into a relaxing dreamscape filled with a vast variety of plants, water sources and mountains, lit by a combination of the soft glow of many different glow in the dark plants and occasionally the moon itself.

They also create the Dreamers Fruit and scatter the trees all over the dark side of the Dreamers Moon.

[hider=Aethel's Realm: Aethel's Grove]
Aethel's Grove is located on the dark side of the Dreamer's Moon. Hidden away among the rest of the softly glowing darkened landscape, the center of Aethel's grove contains an island in the middle of a calm lake with a tree with glowing leaves that change color over time. It exists as Aethel's personal domain because that was where they were standing when they decorated the rest of the Dreamer's Moon and thus deemed this an important place.

[hider=The Dark Side of the Dreamers Moon]
While the realm never sees the light of day, the Dark Side of the Dreamers Moon isn't 'dark' per say. It is lit by a combination of the glow of the moon itself and a vast variety of colors provided by the luminescent plant and fungal life that stretches for thousands of kilometers. It is also home to countless ponds, lakes, rivers, groves and mountains dotted across the surface that poke out from the forests of plant life. 

There are no animals or insects anywhere on the planet. The planet itself provides some warmth, but a mortal would find the realm icy cold despite the lack of snow. They would also die shortly after arriving because Aethel set up the atmosphere mostly to give the plants protection and allow sound to travel; They didn't make it breathable to mortals because they kind of forgot that mortals need a certain mixture of gases for them to be able to breath it and not suffocate. The 'air' of the Dreamers Moon is literally Ether.

[hider=Dreamers Fruit & Dreamers Fruit Tree]
By all accounts, the Dreamers Fruit Tree looks has the general appearance of a more typical apple tree. This is not surprising as the fruit it bares is typically apple in shape, through on occasion it'll take the form of other fruits. It shares the characteristics of other plant life on the Dreamers Moon in that it's leaves are luminescent in nature and help to light up the world around it with a variety of colors. It can also only grow in a place infused with dream energy or somewhere so close to the Sea of Dreams that those without the ability to normally cross over might do so. To date, the only place they can grow is on the Dreamers Moon.

The Dreamers Fruit is a fruit that grows on these trees. The most common form is that of an apple, through other types of fruit are known to grow from the same trees. All Dreamers Fruit share the same pale white coloration, no matter the shape they may take and none of them contain seeds. Each fruit is infused by a dream from the Sea of Dreams, absorbing the essence of the dream but otherwise leaving it and its dreamer undisturbed. This effects the flavor of the fruit so that each one has its own special experience. If the nature of this experience is a positive or negative one depends (mostly) on the person eating it.

Since every person has their own values, personalities, preferences and ideological tastes, there is no such thing as a Dreamers Fruit that would appeal to everyone. What is a vile nightmare to one person could be a delightful dream to another and this is reflected in how one would interpret the flavors of a Dreamers Fruit. Not all dreams are made equal through, so the more intense the dream the more intense the flavor/experience of the fruit. One can take a bite and experience a life altering bliss on par with a divine revelation to finding something so vile and toxic to their very being that it is outright poisonous and possibly life threatening... through those are just the two extremes of the techno-colored rainbow of experiences that the fruits can offer.      

The greatest quirk of the Dreamers Fruit is the fact that it is impossible to tell exactly what experience you're in for until you bite into it. It is completely random which dream infuses with which fruit and no mortal or supernatural method of farming can alter the outcome. The ability to hide what it's flavor is going to be is a divinely granted supernatural property of the fruit itself that Aethel intentionally put in to prevent even a deity like themself with an affinity for dreams being able to know ahead of time and make the experience, good or bad, a true surprise. 

Of course, a deity or strong enough champion could uncover its secrets without eating it first... but it would be a proper divine/supernatural act to do so (IE, it would actually cost resource points to do! Not many, but some). If this is worth the effort is debatable.
