Ishaan's Dream

Image
In Ishaan's dream, there is a carnival ahead, he can see the lights and bustle, the silhouettes of tall rides and waves of people. But the carnival recedes as he approaches, Ishaan gets no closer, so picks up his pace, but to no difference. The carnival disappears, he walks downstairs to a cellar factory. The several small machines running are mad with stamping chatter, each in their own rythmn, as tiny plastic things fall into barrels, nonstop. Ishaan believes he is there late, but sees no one around, so then walks back outside. The carnival has returned, it's all around Ishaan, who is a young boy now. He looks up to the head of a strangely familiar elephant,  and he is fearful, recalling how he does not even like carnivals, doesn't like them at all.

Dante's Dream

Image
In Dante's dream he is small and very scared from nothing he can recall. Then, he floats down the hall to his father's den, but stops.  Then, he walks in with proper posture. "Father, I cannot sleep and I'm afraid." He sees his father slightly smile, then beckon him to come closer. Now they're outside in the daylight, his father engulfs him in his big arms- there's the warming sense of total safety, Dante knows he is protected.
