Effects: Feelings of desperation, then safety.
[His feet pounded on the dirt, his heartbeat rapid, deafening. Where was he? He had to find him! Somewhere in the fog ahead he thought he saw a pair of broad shoulders, but they disappeared almost as soon as they had appeared.
Wait! With a soundless cry he reached out, trying to stop the man. It was so important. He couldn't leave! Wait!
His hand found only fog, and then the ground wasn't there at all. He opened his mouth to yell - but two hands caught him. Caught him and swung him around to settle him on a warm, strong back. Gasping, he threw his arms, suddenly so small, around the other's neck. And just like that, the fear was gone.
Lloyd.
Safe. He was safe. And the man hadn't left.
Lloyd, can you tell me the name of that star?
He buried his face in the other's hair, so soft and spiky as it tickled his cheek. Relishing the feeling, he looked up at the stars. That's easy! It's... um... It's... Okay, maybe not so much. But he knew this one. He knew he did. The man had told him last night.
Corus.

Everything was all right.]
Nngh. [Something is tickling his cheek. The dream fades as consciousness slowly penetrates his brain, but the Dreamberry remains on, recording. He turns his face away from whatever it was touching - giving anyone still watching a very good view of the thick lines and doodles drawn all over his face. There's a feather on his pillow, and more on his shirt, stuck to... is that syrup?]
Huh? [Lloyd's eyes are open now and he's staring groggily at the Dreamberry.] Why's that on...? [He reaches out and picks it up, but he doesn't turn it off before dropping his head back onto his pillow. He might have forgotten to. He's still half asleep.] Ugh. I'm so not ready to wake up...
