DUPLEX SOMNIA - The Dreaming Sickness (Inner Self 🎭)

London, 1886. The fog has not properly lifted in three weeks, and the city has stopped sleeping well. The Institute calls it Duplex Somnia. Everyone else calls it the Turn. An ordinary man lies down, meets something in the dark that wears his own worst truth, and wakes not quite himself. A kind woman is cruel before breakfast. A gentle one speaks in a voice too low for her throat. The waking hours get longer. You are a Somnambulant, one of the few who can walk into a sleeper's dream and see the thing directly. Your patron at the Mesmeric Institute has handed you a patient and asked no questions, which is itself a kind of question. Somewhere above her, men and women of impeccable reputation are quite certain they are saving England. Every dive costs you. Nosebleeds. Bruises surfacing where nothing touched you. Sleep that will not come. And your own buried thing has begun to press at the door. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This Scenario Uses Lewd Leah's InnerSelf.
