439 Dreamless
Third time inside the city, Tasha was still taking in the sights of the city, she was able to chat to some shopkeepers while buying some items, wine, jewellery, moonstones, bread, fruit and monster cores.
She seemed to enjoy the interactions, even with the eagle eyes of the archive master plastered on her back, she tried not to give away any knowledge of the outside world, tainting the subconscious was a death wish and a big no-no.
Walking side by side, Tasha and archive master were conversing along the way, they discussed things that Tasha thought was peculiar, especially with her knowledge about Yunan from her days with him.
"You mean that Yunan has a lover-mentor-student-friend and also a therapist with some of his teachers? That is so messed up on so many levels!" Tasha had already seen how Yunan and his teachers acted when they were together, she just did not know how deep was the rabbit hole.
"Indeed, strange but also predictable, from our perspective, hat relationship is to be expected, Yunan has always been a member of the party, he was given a voice, chances to lead and strategise, even if his ideas were strange and maybe even childish, he was always given just the right amount of correction, therefore, having such a complicated relationship is expected"
The words of the archive master made Tasha think a bit more and understand a little bit about the apparent compatibility between Yunan and his teachers, in some strange ways, Yunan was too compatible with Debauchery party, thus he had the multitude of roles attached to him.
"Then I should assume that any party who can be compatible with Yunan have a multi-layered relationship with him, does that include me?" she asked the archive master, who seemed a little bit distracted again today.
"You should get to that part on your own, realising how your connection works will affect how you work together, therefore, I decline to answer your question, even if we the subconscious, we would like to refrain from affecting anyone but Yunan, I hope you understand" the archive master then started walking towards the theatre while Tasha prepared to leave, she was already running low.
Across their journey, Tasha and Yunan did not meet anything dangerous, some creature roaming the void came to investigate but most creatures left them alone, the void was a dangerous place and if in doubt, fleeing was the rule.
Most of these creatures came from broken universes, the result of the culling going to an extreme, some universes were very strange, they would destroy their rivals instead of just taking over the Fate of the prey universe, they would tear it to shreds, sometimes releasing along with the dead bodies some creature or another that can survive in the void.
These creatures were on the level of gods, they were smart and cunning. if they found prey, they hunted, if they had the slightest bit of doubt, they would flee, very few chose to investigate first.
Yunan was still meditating when they came close to the next target, and Tasha chose not to wake him up, she did as she saw him do last time, and used Dreamscape to infiltrate the universe, unfortunately, this universe had no concept of dreams, therefore, Dreamscape was found immediately, and it was attacked relentlessly.
Tasha opened Dreamscape and allowed the gods to die inside of it, in an effort to preserve their efforts and divinity for Yunan, having no other choice after seeing Yunan was still in deep meditation, Tasha decided to wake him up herself.
Putting her palm on Yunan's forehead, Tasha risked her death and entered the dream city, she was still exhausted from the last time she came, it always took her a few years to recover, but today she was only on half power, thus, she would run out much faster.
In the Dream city, Tasha ran as fast as she could, she knew time was ticking, there was a chance they would be killed before they woke up, so she did her best to reach Yunan as fast as possible, thankfully, the noise she made in this city had attracted Yunan and Effort.
The two met her at the city gate, Effort was giving Tasha a hard glare, while Yunan was waiting for her to explain.
"We have reached our next target, they have no dream energy, I have opened Dreamscape to stop them from destroying the realm, you need to come back, these guys have no emotions, Dreamscape has no effect on them, their forward force is capable of destroying too much, I need you out there". Tasha gasped but still tried to articulate the situation carefully and plainly.
Yunan brought them out of dream city just to see his realm residents being torn to shreds, the emotional effect of Dreamscape was not present at all, and the raiding party did not seem to care about casualties, they just fought with all they got.
Since things turned out this way, Yunan expelled the aborigins of this dreamless universe from Dreamscape, Tasha was spat out as well, he then took the realm inside of him and took out his soul-bound sword, and without much of a pause, he started killing.
Tasha was flustered for a moment before she armed herself and dove into the fight.
She knew better than try to cover Yunan's back, she did her best to stay hidden and only injure her opponents before sending them to Yunan to finish off.

Tasha had been with Yunan long enough to know that; even if she killed the gods of this universe, she would gain far less than if her boss killed them himself, she had seen Yunan completely absorb entire gods, not wasting a shred of energy, therefore, she decided to get what he gave her.
To Tasha, nothing these gods had were even close to the concentrated energy that Effort could give her, Effort was much more helpful to her growth than some divinity from a strange universe, those were her thoughts until the universe started rejecting them.
