It is difficult to conjure what Ouran might see in his restless vision, as I still know little about the culture. I believe however he might see a past vision of a dark, exotic stranger that brings healing to a past Sojourner, and a great reconciliation of some sort.

Thnx 4 the Idea, I was thinking he might see stuff that explained his culture to the rest of us (including me).

That would certainly be helpful, maybe revisiting scenes where he learned from a wise tutor to encompass a longer history- or simply a few short memories from his life that shape the present culture.

Hey, do you guys think I have any chance at nomination or, dare I say it, winning the story game of the month award?

You've just started. Keep developing your story and if not this month, then next month I'm sure you will have a good shot at SGOTM.

I imagine if the Dark Lord were nominated, you'd win it- or at least come frustratingly close like you did last time. I might have to break down and catch up with what's going on in that story. I follow the Mysteries but just never got into the Dark Lord for some reason.

Alas, I opted to nominate another storygame whose author has been working on it longer. Don't despair, your game is still good, and I encourage you to keep working on it. I will keep reading as long as you keep writing.

To change your poll, you will first have to send a PM to the moderator of the forum (Smee) and ask him to delete the current poll. Once he has deleted the current poll, you can Edit your first post to create the new poll. You will need to do this everytime you change polls, regardless whether the poll is never-ending or not.
Smee is gone for about a week, so be patient after you PM him, and he will eliminate your old poll after he gets back.

Hey Alegria,
Good to see you have hooked a couple of other readers.
Know that I am one of them too, although as you may have spotted, my time has been very limited recently and I couldn't make a comment.
I have deleted the poll, so you should be able to add a new one for Chapter 3 when you write it - don't worry about the chapter 2 poll, that'll be ok for this time.
As for the dreams - as Fauna said, it's hard for us to know the sort of things he might dream, so I agree with the idea about dreaming some of the history - it'll help us understand more about your world.
Look forward to the next chapter,
Happy Writing,
