I chuckled. “Where are we?”

“Why Lanon,” she turned back to me, tilting her head, “we are in your mind of course.”

Of course. I should have recognized that right away.

“You mean I’m dreaming?”

“Well, that could be. Your dreams could be the bridge which brought you here. But we really are in your mind. Or a projection of your mind.” She shrugged slightly. “I’m not sure on the specifics.”
