Welcome to Lucidity Challenge 56 - Week 2
Background
[spoiler]It’s dusk in the desert: the sun setting behind the dunes is coloring the sky in red, orange and pink, temperature it’s finally getting cooler.
While you remove your armor, approaching to get some rest, your LC host Genghis Khan appears to your side.
He waves a hand, launches a fireball into the sand, starting a fire.
More LC participants join around the fire, until the group of challengers is complete.
Then Genghis Khan starts to speak:
- You have done well during the first week
- You have challenged the desert, fought your inner foes, visited towns, prayed at altars…
- And you have done so relying just on your will and on the trusted steel
- But I know how hard is resisting to use your dream powers
- So for this second week of Challenge, I instead ask you to unleash all the dream powers you can !
He waves a hand, and you find yourself in a big modern city; you are in a park with a shiny building, with skyscrapers on the back.
Some people are walking by, others are drinking coffee, other are sitting on the grass, while a black guy is trying to sell his jazz music discs. It seems a dream version of Chicago…
Suddenly, a guy wearing a tight red and green costume flies above the people, and lands in front of you
- Challengers, it’s time to be superheroes ![/spoiler]
