Description

Dream Quest is set in a post-apocalyptic world that had been ravaged by weapons of mass destruction, where a new generation of humanity managed to survive and form a new civilization. Many perils existed in the aftermath of the old war. Mutant tribes of cannibals and hordes of the living dead were the most common, but there were other creatures and unknown dangers. Due to the radiation and chemical afterburn a form of fusion magic came to the land, as well as concerned and vengeful visitors from the unknown, creatures that some would call gods.Kastos puts together a rag-tag crew of anyone willing to accompany him on this fantastic voyage across unknown waters, fraught with wonders and horrors, to the icy wastelands in the far south. Where Kastos hopes to discover if the myth of immortal life was real. On board the Kella, an old battered Navy Frigate, the crew assembled and embarked upon this quest. However, fate intervenes and throws Kastos a wild card when a beautiful woman is rescued at sea after a devastating storm. She warns him about the old gods who guard the gates. Terrible, malevolent beings who will bar his way... unless he chooses her to help him. Kastos has to make a choice to either ignore or trust her, a woman he has never met, yet who seems oddly compelling, and familiar.
