I haven’t been recalling my dreams much lately. Last night I was pretty sick, and for some reason had this crazy dream.
It starts in a cave, I’m on a bike, in a race I think. As I move deeper into the cave, I come to a path that is blocked by a chainlink fence. The path runs along a cliff face and the chasm-side has chainlink fence along it too. I turn around and head back toward the entrance.
The entrance is down a small cliff and across a pool of water from where I am. You can go around the pool and cliff on either side using a steep path. The cavern holding all this is probably 100 feet across and has a fairly high roof too. The path is too steep to bike down (at least for me).
Luckily, I find my brother, there and hand down the bicycle to him. Part of the cliff is loose and crumbles under my feet as I am doing this. To avoid falling, I jump down and join him. He seems a bit irked at me, but I don’t know or don’t remember why.
The scene shifts and there are other people there – it’s not clear if my brother is still there or not. We’re stranded in this place. Ship/plane wrecked or something like that. For some reason I bike back tot he back of the cave. This time I crash through the chainlink gate, as well as a couple more further down the path. Then I see that the path ends and if I don’t stop I’ll be biking into the air over a chasm of unknown depth. I manage to stop just at the edge.
Now I’m back in the entrance cavern. And there are three giants (not super large, but 8 feet talk) there, and they are not happy with us being there. They are rough and dirty creatures, very stereotypical fantasy giants.
We are on the cliff and they are below. Two of the giants come around one way (the left side if you are looking from the entrance) and the third the other way. There are five of us, and I seem to be the one to whom everyone is deferring. I give orders to send two against the other single giant while the other three of us face off against the two giants.
The fight is with clubs and kicking mainly. We have the high ground and eventually win. I thoroughly beat one of the giants who is female and wearing some sort of light purple dress – well past the point of just being unconscious though there is no blood. I’m angry but a bit detached from it as I bludgeon the giant. I yell and encourage my comrades too.
Having defeated the giants we go down the paths to a room off the main cavern. The room is a kitchen, but still slightly cave-like. There are two refridgerators.
We inspect one to see what we can salvage from it. It is side-by-side fridge/freezer and brown. The items in it are mainly partially eaten things – not chunks of random food, but more like jars of preserves, bottles of drink, etc. There is also a large amount of loose, cooked pasta in the fridge.
At least one person in the group refuses to eat the partially consumed stuff. I tell them to go through the fridge anyway and then do the other one.
Then I wake up.
Very adventure game-like. I could see this episode as part of a spelunking/biking adventure set in France (during a long-distance race).
