Yet another strange dream.

So, this dream is almost set up like a strategy game campain. There are two countries very close to each other with a small mountain between them. On one side, there is a warrior clan, living in simple huts on the dry earth. They are a fierce people, well versed in the arts of combat with all sorts of weapons, and more than willing to use them. Their most impressive weapon is what looks like a giant rolling log covered in spikes, but it fires arrows at the enemy and in close range can also act as a flame-thrower.

On the other side of the mountain, the other country has their castle set up on an island in the middle of a wide lake. A land bridge connects the island to the shore. (I guess that makes it not an island, but I don't know how to describe it.) These are passive people, spending much of their time mastering the arts of magic and sorcery and learning how to control fantastic magical beasts. Their ultimate defense sleeps in a cave deep beneath the waters of the lake, a montrous water serpent.

In this dream, two battles were fought between these two peoples. Both times, the warrior clan attacked the castle, the first time nearly conquering the sorcerors with their ferocity. I was in the middle of this battle, fighting alongside the magic-users. By the skin of our teeth we pushed the warriors back through the mountain tunnel to their homeland. The second time the warriors made their appearance, we were ready.

Most of us stationed ourselves in the castle, high above the battle below, casting bolts of lightning and fireballs down onto the warriors. Others were hidden around the attacking army harassing the warriors. Then the warriors brought out their rolling arrow-shooting, flame-throwing machine.

After some struggle, we managed to get their rolling monstrosity off of the land bridge and into the lake water. Then I called, "Summon the Water Demon!"

The Serpent awoke from it's slumber, broke the surface of the lake, and slaughtered the enemy left and right. The warriors ran back through the tunnel to their kingdom, but we gave chase, summoning terrifying skeleton soldiers and slinging more lighting and fire at the enemy.

From there, I assume we won the battle, but about that time I woke up.
