[QUOTE="Fanog, post: 1009374, member: 10680"] Yes, you are now in the process of Awakening. The rules on spirits are pretty free-form. The concept of Spirits is detailed in them, as well as how you can interact with them. However, the [i]nature[/i] of these spirits, and what these actually represent, is pretty vague and open to the individual. While it may seem now that these spirits are only present in earthly objects, you will find out that this is actually only a part of what they are. Spirits live in their own world, which is called the Umbra. The Umbra borders our world, and through this border (called the Gauntlet by some), some spirits can interact with our world. Many do so by inhabiting objects, but there are also free-roaming spirits, or those who join with a specific person. Spirits could even be the souls of deceased humans, both those who have passed on or those who are still with us on earth. As you see, the concept of spirits is pretty vague, and the rules can govern all of them. The important part is that your interaction with spirits will [i]change[/i] along with your beliefs on what they are. So, even though there are spirits of humans, you will not be able to interact with them, simply because you don not perceive the concept of spirits as such. Instead they will be (roughly) appearing as creatures of their own, monsters as they have appeared in myth and works of art. The efreeti from your dream is an example of such. Over the course of what will happen, you will learn to know several of the near-infinite amount of spirits. Yuor muse might become as central one, as will the efreeti, probably. If this is all a bit unclear, I could write up an additional post detailed how things will look from Jason's point of view. However, I'm a little hesitant to do this. The catch is that the concept of [i]'the spirit world'[/i] changes dependent on [i]who[/i] is looking. Because of that, I'd like you to have as much control as possible over what's going in. It's safe to assume that Jason can now look into the Umbra, and can see several spirits nearby. His muse is probably present, and the Efreeti might be as well. I hope this gives you some leads. Please give me a sign if you're unsure, and I'll write up a short IC post, to help you on your way. Fanog [/QUOTE]
