.../For some reason I am holding a cutting board like it is a tennis racket and get out somewhere to run on a road next to a lake. It looks like my grandparent's town lake, although I must be far from the town. The view is amazing but the scene does not seem to have much sense. I wonder if it is a dream. Look for the tattoo, it does not look bad, but there is something with it, it looks too blurry. I do not remember if it looks like that. I decide to do a second RC to confirm, I do not remember any other but the nose pinch. I give it a try, and I can breath! Great, now, What I was supposed to do? I do not remember about the TotM but the lucid dares in stead. I try to remember StephL's dare this time. It was something about taking a walk on a giant broccoli or something related to fractals, but where can I find it? I turn to my right to see there is sort of a temple carved in the stone of a mountain. Of course, I can look for it in the temple of fractals. I go there to get into a huge gate. It is a long corridor flanked by columns, it seems the interior of an abbey. I look out of the corner of my eye a couple of pictures of fractals at the entrance of this temple. They seem to be a pretty simple structure. It is like they are made of an ECG graph. It is not what I am looking for. There are a lot of altars between the columns. I think perhaps I can find a picture of the sort of broccoli I was dared to look for. I do not remember its name nor its shape. I see an altar in the style of a colonial cathedral, with pictures around it, and some carvings of people here and there like some Mesopotamian ancient artwork. There is a tiny window with a colorful cathedral glass in the middle. I turn my view to change the shape of the image that forms looking to form the image of the vegetable I am looking for, although I cannot reconstruct a mental image of how it looked like. I just remember it was something like a raspberry. And that is the pattern that appears on the glass. I do not remember the exact figure as well. I try a couple of times but I cannot reconstruct the image with my movements. Then I decide to turn the whole thing with a single movement. There is a door behind the circular altar. I jump there. It looks like a short hallway, it is all made of wood. There is some stairs at the end. I decide to go there, and cross in front of a door of a room. There is a huge book on a table. I stop to see it. I remember I saw a similar scene in one of my old 'non-induced' lucids, although back then, the room was dark and there were candles next to the book. I want to see what is there. I got to take a look although I forget what it was. Then I realize it has been a while since I am talking this walk and remember it is a good way to stabilize the dream in stead of start flying or attempting to teleport somewhere else. I decide I like to walk in my lucids. I go to the stairs and start going down. It was a second floor. The dream start fading out when I feel my legs on my bed/... * I did not remember it was a romanesco what I was looking for.
