I received more memories and they make me question the reality of this even more.
I was a princess. Of a country called Monsea - which is my real last name.
And my father - in these memories, not my father right now - was a terrible person who has powers, like a superhero (I guess that makes him a supervillain).
But I lived in a medieval like castle.
Quite frankly, I'm expecting a dragon to show up.

[ The words were light, merely teasing. ]
Monsea does sound like one of those strange fantasy worlds especially with the castle, evil wizard King and everything. Any idea where this Monsea actually was? Germany has a lot of castles.

"Monsea" was never a country in Europe.

[ Unless it had been some small little out of the way place that was no longer a thing. This was thought but not added to the conversation. ]
I meant did you get a sense of whether Monsea was an island, or a country... maybe an entire world?
no subject
The Monsea in my dreams was a country bordered on the west, north, and east by mountains, and a sea to the south. I got the impression there were other countries nearby.
My mother was from some island country to the west.

And... how did you know your father was a wizard? Did he do some magic in your dream?
no subject
My father in my memories was also not a wizard. I meant what I said about it being more like superpowers. There were no rituals, spells, wands, potions, familiars - nothing at all even vaguely akin to western magic lore.
But he had the power to make people believe and do anything he said. The power was called a grace.

[ A beat. ]
If England were lopped off the bottom of it.
[ If he were surprised the name of the power also happened to be shared by his girlfriend it only showed as a slight drawing away from the screen. ]
A Grace? Hypnotism, maybe, about as far from grace as you can get! Imagine what some one could do with a power like that. It didn't work on you?
no subject
Hypnotism - no. His power worked even traveling via other people. If they spread what he said, it had the same effect as if he'd said it himself.
[She'd already said her father in her memories was a terrible person, she doesn't think she needs to spell it out.]
You know, I don't recall the Christian theology of any sect appearing anywhere in my memories.

[ He nodded and clicked his tongue. ]
But point taken. It's some fantasy-type country that doesn't actually exist.
That's spooky though, a contagious phrase. What was he using it for?

[ Anthony hadn't noticed that but she was right. ]
Guess its like one of those true crime things where you find yourself wanting to hear all the details even though you know you aren't going to have any faith left in humanity once you have.
[ Apologetic shrug. ]
At least it isn't real?

Nah, it all started off feeling like a complete fairy tale and with each new memory its just feeling more real. It can't be real of course, but its the realist fake I've ever felt.
