Spark: Life is a Dream of a Dream's third soul

In dreams, I am true to myself. Come, stay, abide a while, and I will tell my story.   I was born, like those of my kind, a spark of The Unconquered Sun, borne upon the Solar Wind, upon Yu-Shan. There I met my first incarnation, and then he died, and I soon made my way to Breaking Idea of Illumination, a clever, nimble boffin of a Solar, and together we put our hands to creation of great artifice, sundering the enemies of creation. When he died, I started bouncing from mortal to mortal, a bit of a nomad, I was.   When I joined with this one, the Raksha had played upon him a cruel prank, one that Ignis Divine wants me to help repay in full. Oh it had not been noticed immediately, being that deep into the Wyld, but they thought we'd not know, that we'd not care? Some things cannot be borne. They had pretended to exalt him in the wyld, using their uncouth gossamer illusions, as part of that wedding. You read me correctly, parts of my soulmatter recoiled, it was repugnant.*puts th   Turns out he probably should rather have died, there'd have been less net suffering into Creation. His wife was no mere mortal, or even a demon. No, she was one of the Fair Folk, a Shaped Raksha of some power in the Opal Court, them's the most martial crackpots of that particular foul race, really don't recommend.   I had come into him as he put into motion his escape plan, he had chosen to escape, identified the means and hoped to take his friends with him. Ignis Divine approved, he had tried without help, knowing how unlikely it was for a single human to escape that many of these 'fair folk' alone, in their stronghold.   When he had offered, Laughing Boy had, what else, laughed at the suggestion, but the tiger wanted to come, and the one other slave still hale enough to think of escape thought it was a great idea. We had come upon an extant raiding party of the Raksha.   When the plan was put into execution though, there was a snag. Laughing boy's fake gossamer contract failed to stun them into submission. So Dream, Moondapple and their slave friend were surrounded by a pack of hungry, angry hobgoblyns. But I was there within Dream, and I knew things Dream had never suspected existed. I have seen things, things that make these hobgoblyns easy opponents, I flared anima at them, then a simple charm, and off they went. Dream started running after that, and off we went, in the opposite direction. Running towards that portal, as a matter of fact, then closing it, unfortunately only after that raksha arrow had killed the other slave through the back. Then running to that caravan that the Raksha had opened the portal for. The tiger had to go though, no way the caravan would accept him with the tentacles, and that transparent body when we he feeds...   I'm not betting he won't be back though, Moondapple cannot be found, when he hides, he puts to the test a Solar with his skill.
