   2019/12/13 Friday: Free Floating!   
      
   Many dreams of which I can't recall their order of presentation, so I'll start   
   with this one:  There seemed an environment similar to a town militia (or   
   "guard" perhaps?) bustling through an area not unlike a mall or courtyard, but   
   also with walls    
   present.  The scene was dim, so the dreamer was unable to say whether this was   
   indoors or outdoors, but IF it were indoors, then it must've been rather   
   spacious in the sense that people could pick practically any direction to   
   travel that wasn't an actual    
   wall.   
      
   This militia-guard-type group was bustling from place to place, constantly   
   going "Hai! Hai! Hai! Hai!" as if calling out a cadence while "marching"   
   (moving.)  As they were going around the area, I "floated" up out of reach in   
   order to watch them, feeling    
   "safe" from anything they may have had in mind.  I seem to recall lightly   
   laughing at them in the sense that "You're all down there and can't come up."   
      
   In a somewhat related dream (had the same *period* feel to it) there was a   
   group of folk (of both genders) seemingly also sort of crushing around in a   
   busy-hectic sort of atmosphere, although not as "urgent" / mission-centered as   
   the guard from the    
   previous dream.  Still, there was some vague reference to a "chip" of some   
   sort, not unlike a token, but not having the feel of a coin that one might   
   spend.  I (the dreamer) had a vague memory of having obtained it somehow,   
   along with a vague warning    
   that one is always best to be rid of it rather than to possess it.  I ignored   
   this until a short while later (would could have represented *any* amount of   
   time passage) until the subject came back up again in a discussion, where a   
   woman was telling me    
   about more specifically about the danger of keeping the token in one's   
   possession, saying something along the lines of "Yes, it's really *very*   
   dangerous to keep it.  Those people (thugs) will never give up until they have   
   it."  At this point in typing    
   this up, I'm seriously wondering if this dream segment was related to the   
   first one with the clomping militia....   
      
   I ("the dreamer") felt somewhat skeptical yet detected a *very slight* twinge   
   of fear at the thought of keeping the token at that point.  Although I was   
   nudged slightly onto the fence of deciding whether to keep it or not, I'd not   
   yet come to the point    
   of deciding to give it up and was somewhat more inclined to keep it, although   
   the decision was still an upcoming issue I figured I might have to face.  I   
   (the dreamer) recognized she was telling me about this knowledge (that   
   possession of the token was a    
   potentially while in an open carriage of some sort, not unlike a horse-drawn   
   wagon, and I "thanked" her aloud for having told me this within a close-set   
   congregation of several people ("Three may keep a secret if two of them are   
   dead"— Ben Franklin) so    
   I knew at that moment that any chance I had of keeping my possession of the   
   token secret was now no longer an option.   
      
   I set out in a follow-up segment to attempt to find where I'd left the token   
   (as if it were not on my person) in what must've been a decision to at least   
   disown it in some manner (for my own well being.)  I also seem to recall a   
   type of conversation    
   wherein someone was asking me where it was, and all I could tell them "I don't   
   know" as in I'd not yet been able to find it.  This last bit of the dream   
   lacks clarity and was getting murky, so I'm wondering if such lack of clarity   
   means the dreamer is    
   possibly dying or in some way being beaten / tortured?  ("Leaving" a dream may   
   be related to the process of dying, as in "leaving a life" is very much akin   
   to leaving a dream.)   
      
   For whatever this may be worth, here's a link (https://deadline.   
   om/2015/07/da-vincis-demons-cancellation-chris-albrecht-reaction   
   end-starz-1201489089) telling of the end of the 3-season series, "Da Vinci's   
   Demons" which I watched a "free" Starz episode    
   on last night.  It seemed a really *great* retelling / re-weaving of some of   
   Da Vinci's more notable tales from history.
