A dark figure

W.I.L.D. Attempt #4 ~ Since 4 Days Ago, When I Started Lucid Dreaming Again T.O.T.Y. (Task of the Year) God Of Wine and Extra Adventure Dream ~ Dream #1 ~ 100% Lucidity Approximate Real Life Time: A few minutes Approximate Dream Time: A few days Backstory: At this point in time, I have already woken up many times. In waking life, my physical body was so hungry I had to quit the first dream, and do <PERSON> ToTY quickly. I live high up in an apartment building. Story: I wake up from my bed, and as usual my brain does not start any dreams during <PERSON>, lazy brain. I knew it was a lucid dream, so I jumped out of my 2-story bunk bed to the carpet from the second story of my bunk. I looked outside my window. I saw the bright, warm sun glowing in my eyes. It was surrounded by a blue, clear sky with few, tiny clouds. I melted ( went through ) through the window. I floated for a few seconds, and opened a portal into a swampy forest. I looked at the great, dark green wilderness around me, and the low depth of water on the floor of the forest. All I wanted was to have a great adventure, and journey across many lands in one world. While I was thinking about that, I slashed by a sword through my arm. I noticed a dark figure in front of me, and as I started to grab my long sword out of a scabbard, and raised in front of me. I wanted to keep going on this adventure, but I am really hungry in real life, so I decided to save my progress in this dream, and do one of the ToTY Tasks. I opened up a white menu out of nowhere, and I pressed "Save progress" with a saving disk next to it. I closed my eyes. [View the continued version of this dream here.] Dream Shift. I opened my eyes, and I saw <PERSON> in front of me across a long, wooden table covered with a white cloth. Many people were around us watching us. <PERSON>, the wine god, challenge me to a drinking contest. I chuckled, and I agreed. I decided to cheat, because it was not specified whether we were allowed to cheat or not. I took my first glass and drank it. I cheated by putting a portal in my mouth, so I did not technically drink it. However after many drinks, I started to feel drunk and dizzy. I did not how that was possible. I could see <PERSON> also as drunk as me. I thought, "What kind of wine is this?" It was a contest made by a Greek God, so he probably setup anti-cheating measures. I decided to keep going on. As I drank more and more, I started to feel dizzier and dizzier. I blacked out, but I keep going even when I was blacked out. I had to beat him. When I finally regained conscious, I saw <PERSON> smiling at me. I did not know whether I won or lost. I still very lightheaded. <PERSON> says that I won, but I was still drinking. Our contest lasted a few days, and during the late night, there would be the most audience watching, and the fewest in the morning. When I woke up, it was early morning, and <PERSON> says I won him by a few hours, and laughed because I drank 304 more cups after I had legally won already. When he woke from his black-out, he was watching me drink more and more. We both agreed that I had won, and that he is willing to challenge me again. I forced myself to wake up. Dream End. I woke up, and went to the kitchen to get a drink and something to eat. I took out orange juice and poured it in my glass. I swore that if it tasted like wine, I would hate myself for doing that challenge first. Luckily, it tasted fine, and I continued with my daily routine. Remember to comment your thoughts (if you want to)!
