Corruption of the Totems, Pure Speculation Options

[Kanada Ten]

Alive and active, the Netherworlds span across metaphorical space. Populating these far flung reaches, the denizens of Metaplanes seem like dreams or manifested aspects of this Realm to us. Yet each world has a unique hierarchy, a structure we mimic by our Religions or define by them.

Traveling of their own accord, wether among the Realms or to our own Living Reality, the powerful of these planes can shape events about the dreamscape. But to what ends does this extend? What creatures exist undetected, undreamed in the Dark spaces?

Once a powerful Totem, the Spirit of the Spider Realm, fell under attack from a demon or demons. Traveling from Nightmare, this heinous creature assaulted the Spider Realm to enslave its power like a carnivorous parasite. Eventually overwhelmed and suppressed, Spider slept.

Driven by the Darkness that spawned it, the vampiric monster that now called itself Spider continued its quest to amass the power of Dreams by corrupting those who heard the call of Spider and by traveling to the Crossroad, the place where all worlds and all thought connect: this World, our Living Reality.

Battled and defeated long ago, this imposter Spider remained trapped on this plane; but so did the True Spirit remain suppressed. Destroyed in this age by Fate, the imposter is no more. Dear and True Spider rose from the slumber and could call once more to the Dreamers. The Spirit does not live without guilt, Her weakness allowed the imposter to deceive and destroy, but She will hunt the Others: those imposters that have taken Bee, Beetle, and the rest.

She feels sadness that Mantis perverted Herself to defeat the Enemy, but She feels sympathy as well. If it comes to Slumber or that... She will do what She must.
