## History

There are many different worlds each being represented by and physically being a deity. Obviously there is the overworld, Gaia, the nether, Hela, and the end, Ender, but there is another less well known one since you cannot simply use a portal to travel there. The Dream realm, and the deity Somnium. Every night when beings fall asleep and dream, their consciousness is transported to this chaotic, ever-changing world where anything is possible. The deity Somnium, similarly to the other world deities is mostly neutral in alignment, not being good nor being evil, for example, Gaia grows lush jungles full of fruit that people can eat, but also causes natural disasters that destroy civilizations. Similarly, Somnium is a being of both good and evil. Somnium is made up of two different deific aspects. Wither and Bloom. Somnium as a whole is often represented as a phantom, those being Somnium's servants who force people to dream if they haven't been sleeping, but each aspect is also known as having a different form, Bloom that of an axoltol, and Wither that of a wither. I will now go over those aspects. First off Wither, the deity of nightmares, fear, and bad dreams, wither is the one who causes people to have nightmares, unpleasant thoughts as you fall asleep, etc. Wither enjoys inflicting this harm on others, and is widely considered as evil. Bloom, the other half of Somnium is the deity of dreams in the more pleasant sense, daydreams, and dreams where all of your hopes and dreams come true, Bloom also represents dreams in the meaning of what you wish to accomplish in life and your true desires. Wither is generaly disliked, for obvious reasons, but both Wither and Bloom are needed to form somnium, and you cannot have one without another, they are a metaphorical two sided coin, you can't get one without the other. Somnium is known for being generally mischievous, presumably due to the childish outlook of Bloom and the love of causing pain of Wither, and will often play practical jokes on those in their domain. Eventually however, Somnium started to grow lonely, only seeing people in the day when people napped or daydreamed, and longed to be where others are, the overworld. Eventually Wither made a plan, they would show a mortal the power of dreams, of course using Bloom to keep their best foot forwards, and get that mortal to give over their body so that Somnium could find their way through to the overworld. The mortal they selected was Undead Calamari, the founder and king of a nation known as New Canada. They visited him in his sleep showing him what was possible with dream magic, which lead to Undead bringing the first ever axoltols in existence into the overworld. Undead was exited, and planned to use this power to improve his kingdom and make life better for his subjects, but eventually, he started to notice something, his books and other magic related supplies were left open and scattered about when he woke up. Undead slowly figured out that when he slept, Somnium was taking control of his body. Undead understood how much disaster a being of this power could cause if unleashed on the world and had to make a choice, so, Undead stopped sleeping. If he never slept, then it could never control him. He used all sorts of things, going from potions made with cacao beans, to making his bed too uncomfortable to sleep in, but he struggled, the longer he went without sleeping, the more powerful Somnium became when he eventually did sleep, and he decided that he was no longer fit to rule, so he passed on his crown, grabbed his royal weapon, a mighty trident, his prized royal netherite armor, and ran. He went through the nether roof where there was nothing else to be harmed if he fell asleep, and he ran. For weeks, months years mabye, he wasn't sure, time was all an incoherent blur, he ran. He was constantly hounded by a swarm of phantoms, Somnium's servants who stop insomnia, and was constantly spearing them out of the sky with his loyalty trident. He only survived by eating the membrane of the phantoms, made of pure dream essence, which caused him to start to get sickly and his eyes to shift to the green colour of theirs, but he continued onwards. Eventually, he came opon a portal, and discovered a place of pure nature, forests and groves full of flowers with bees buzzing all about, The Hivelands, home to the hive. The hive took pity on Undead and offered him a deal, the hive would let Undead become one with the Hivemind, which could overpower Somnium's control and therefore allow Undead to exist mostly as normal, and in return, Undead would protect the hive and all of its inhabitants. Undead took the deal, and for the rest of his life, Somnium would be trapped in the back of Undead's mind, unable to do much of anything, but that all changed with the final battle. At the end of the battle, as Undead decapitates death, but before they had won the war, it happened. The death bomb. As it the explosion hit Undead at point blank range, he was obliterated, but his soul did not pass on. His soul, and therefore Somnium and The Hive were trapped inside of Undead's enchanted netherite armor where they would all spend the next few hundred years arguing with eachother, unable to do anything. Things eventually changed however, as far away, back in the land of New Canada, a potionmaker and enchanter named Vex, read up on some ancient writings while trying to learn of what happened with Undead, and learned of the dream realm. Vex wanted, similarly as Undead to make the world a better place for all of New Canada, as well as the world. Vex was young, but well respect for his talent with all things Arcane, having invented one of the most widely used enchantments, silk touch, a few years prior, and having a promising future as a witch, with his fiancée whom he was soon to marry. Vex conducted a ritual, which managed to summon forth Wither, who repayed him by rampaging through New Canada, killing everybody that Vex had ever known. Vex, quickly realizing his mistake, cobbled together a spell, one of the most powerful spells ever performed, and certainly the most powerful spell performed by a mortal. He sacrificed one of his lives to fuel the spell, and created a bond between himself and the dream. He created a seal so powerful that even he could not break it, and sealed Wither away. He buried the other New Canadians and left, as there was nothing left for him there anymore. Meanwhile, as Wither was summoned, Somnium was torn asunder, leaving only Bloom left. As their arguments had calmed down more recently, and became more collaborative as the group shared the common goal of somehow getting free. Eventually, however, Wither got summoned, and Somnium was now just Bloom, which cause a large burst of dream magic to burst forth, which caused all of the changes to the nature in ememe (biomes o plenty). Undead incorrectly assumed that the Hive had merged with Somnium and thats what caused Somnium to suddenly become friendly. A month or two after this event, Vex came along to ememe, and put on the armor, which lead to Bloom taking over his mind and body, leaving Vex with Undead in his subconscious mind. The ememe 2 stuff goes down to the point where Bloom learns about being a God, at which point his power surged forth and, as Vex assumed, Bloom subconsciously tried to be more like Somnium when fully together, because he was not used to having that power without Wither, and tried to make up for it.
