The Palace of Dreams

Description

Sunyoung and Jongup are twins and Dreamers. Born from the union of a god and a human, they have the ability to influence the world through their dreams. If their existence becomes known by the wrong side, they will either be killed or taken by the gods to be used for their own purposes. For it is known that when they come of age, in the forbidden Palace of Dreams, a Dreamer can change the whole of the realm itself.

Foreword

Due to the power struggles of the four gods, the world of Tiernan is out of balance.  One hemisphere enjoys relative paradise and prosperity while the other endures almost eternal hardship.  Unable to gain power on their own, the weakened gods must resort to using the humans in order to set things to rights.  But siring children with a mortal is forbidden and a gamble since the resultant offspring has the power to bring about the rise or fall of the gods, should they be allowed to come of age.

Such children are usually ‘taken care of’ long before that time, but with the power distribution so uneven already, the gods in power know this is their chance to rid themselves of their lesser cohorts for good. Unable to kill each other naturally, they can use a Dreamer to solve that… problem. As for the lesser gods, it is their only chance to set things to right once more, securing their existence.

Chapter 2: OMG. OMG OMG OMG. Not at all what I expected though to be honest I didn't know what to expect but certainly not THAT! Poor Sunny!!!
That standoff was just intense and I really thought they would kill Jongup, poor, innocent child that he is, but then again the poster haha so I thought there must be some way he survived. But now with him in their clutches it is just so sad, though at least Luna is still at home with her mom. Geez! But oh man Hyukjae. Again, totally unexpected! I would guess that she 'Sealed' him, then? Geez. So Hyoyeon spends time making someone for Sunny, only to lose her own special someone. It's so sad!!!

Chapter 1: Oh this is a beautiful and sad representation of the power struggle between siblings. I loved how you interwove the despair and longing with them both keeping up a strong front for their people.
The moment with the family and her blessing, that was so beautifully done and I really enjoyed seeing that glimpse of her power. Also, the subsequent naming of places as she flit around and blessed, that was really cool! I can tell that this world will be massive and built beautifully and I am so looking forward to this.

Holy crap this one sounds like it will be so good! I'm glad your Muse seems to be working with yoi, too. This is exciting! (And it's funny because I had the thought that if no one chose this title prompt, I would go choose it as a second story haha)
