Эзиж

When we sleep, we establish a connection with the kingdom of dreams.This place is as real as the ordinary world in which we exist.The rules of life in it may seem chaotic and not amenable to logic, but the kingdom of sleep is much ancient than the “real” world.This world is easily available in ordinary mortals in dreams, but there are unique creative people who can project their dreams on the real world, thereby violating the border of realities.Demonic creatures can also penetrate there, but they were weak and did not pose a threat to sleeping mortals. Once, a group of demonic sorcerers conducted a dark ritual, which endowed the "seed" with demonic power.They moved this seed to the kingdom of dreams and it began to eat streams of fear, envy, resentment, regret and sadness, which flowed through dreams from the withdrawn mortal people.Ultimately, it sprouted into a demonic tree, which began to spread the accumulated negative emotions to all dreams. The keepers of dreams felt a large amount of negative energy in their world and began to look for a source.The circle of searches gradually narrowed and in the epicenter they discovered a tree-source.It was dead, split as if from a lightning strike.Inside it was something that had already gained enough strength to choose out. The creature that was sitting there was an Ezizh.When he was found, he was already full of strength and energy, but still he did not know much about the kingdom.He skillfully manipulated the dreams of lords and other influential people night after night, directing their actions as the demon wanted.From others, he learned a lot of new things for himself.People are so easily amenable to fears.He studied his prey very carefully.He began to experiment, sending nightmares so alien to the dreamers that their mind was exhausted from shock and experiences so much that the enemy gave up without any seizure. Every day he sent all new nightmares as sleeping deaths to the Kingdom of Espery.The strongest of them could cause craziness or even to anyone who sleeps.Once, he met in the kingdom of dreams of a man, on whom a very strong and terrible nightmare he sent on the eve.After him, he had to go crazy or die.But now he saw him happy, sitting in a cozy house by the fireplace, and his beloved cat was lying on his knees.Azizh fixed his gaze at him and a peaceful animal, that hour turned into a terrible monster who was ready to eat his master.Well, there was a dazzling white light and everything returned to its original state.Cosiness, fireplace and an affectionate cat on the knees. He understood something was wrong and looked out of the crevice of the tree.He saw a crowd of defenders of the kingdom of dreams who committed the ritual of exile.The hunt has begun. "I am your worst nightmare."
