Once Max had gone to bed she had done the same. It didn't take
her long to start dreaming, and once she did she was able to
enter the Worlds Dream. IT looked like a deep forest with trees
larger then the largest Redwoods on earth. It was dark, the sky
overhead obscures by leaves and branches.
Normally when she arrived she would have shifted into her Urshal
form, but knowing that Solomon was supposed to be joining her
she remained in her human form. She took care with her dream
appearance dressed in normal clothing of a tee-shirt, jeans
boots and a leather jacket. She stood on what might be
considered a path through the forest her hands tucked into the
pockets of her jacket as she waited. In the distance the sound
of creatures hunting could be heard. They were not quite close
enough to worry het yet.

Solomon appears moments later, the mage's appearance more misty
and insubstantial than it would be normally. Given where they
are, though, dreaming shortcuts or not, he suddenly seems
uncomfortable.
Focusing for a few seconds, Solomon suddenly manifests what
looks like a binding circle beneath himself, which shins upward
creating a protective cylinder around himself. An Amnion, though
it's doubtful anyone other than another mage would know what
that is offhand.
Relaxing, then, he turns back around to look towards Miri. The
supernal overlays his sight for a few moments, confirming that
she's sleeping and that they're in the astral. Given that he's
already needing to focus through the whirl of his Amnion,
though, he quickly lets his senses return to normal.
"Wow. This is indeed it. The Dreaming Earth. The Anima Mundi.
And you simply end up here every night?" he asks. No hello, how
are you, or anything like that. Mages have their focuses, after
all...

Miri curiously takes in Solomons's misty and insubstantial
appearance. Maybe it was that way because he wasn’t supposed to
be here. She looked down at herself but looked as solid as she
always did. She lifted an eyebrow as the glowing cylinder
increased him a small smirk curving her lips.
“What don’t trust me to be able to protect you while you are
where? I am guessing that was some sort of protection spell?”
It actually probably wasn’t a bad idea. She was not the best at
fighting, but she wasn’t going to tell him that.
She smiled at him and nodded. “Yes, every night. Welcome to my
dream Soloman. Are you ready to explore a bit? Maybe I can find
a spirit that i like for the pack I am forming.

Solomon shrugs slightly. "Yes and no," he says. "Most people
need protection when they reach this far into the Astral. We
call it an Amnion. It protects our sense of self from eroding in
a realm that's about the whole, not the parts," he explains.
"Which... makes it all the more curious that you don't need to
do anything like that, despite coming here every night."
Then again, it's not as if the goetia need it, which might imply
more of a connection to them. The Mystery deepens.
"Oh you don't have a pack yet? I suppose that explains why I met
you alone and not with a half dozen other eyes glaring from the
shadows," he mentions with a bit of a chuckle, "Interesting.
Well, I'd be happy to help you look."
The 'spirits' of the Dreaming Earth are different from normal
spirits, but Miri would of course know that there are exceptions
to every rule and Packs have been bound around stranger Totems
than ghehalith.

Amnion.”She pronounced the word carefully and cautiously moved
closer to him to look at the shield around him. “What happens if
something or someone touches it?”
She looked thoughtful when he mentioned the realm being about he
whole not the parts. “That is curious since Urath are as much
spirit as man, and as much wolf as spirit.”
“One theory is because this is something like Pangea, and the
spirit here is a shard of Father Wolf.” She made a face as she
said it. “It is not a very popular opinion.”
She shook her head. “No, no pack, well a pack of one other I
just recruited them earlier today their name is Max.”
“The pack I had before most moved away when they were old
enough, or in the case of Thomas decided to try and take on
something he shouldn’t have without others being there.” There
was a bit of bitterness in that statement.
“I am not sure if i will find a Spirit here that will work, but,
no dream is to be wasted.” She smiled a bit and turned to walk
with him deeper into the forest.

"If you touch it just to touch it, nothing. If you touch it by
trying to attack it, it will be like trying to tear through a
wall," he answers her question with an amused look. "Not that
the Uratha can't manage that sort of feat when they need to..."
Need to be sure it's not worded as a challenge, after all.
He listens curiously about the talk of Pangaea. That's not an
unheard of thing to hear about among circles of mages, although
the Thrice-Great tend to associate it closely with Atlantis. So
who knows if it ever truly existed. "Well, that's the sort of
thing we're going to work together to find out," he claims.
"Anyway, that's good to know. I'll have to meet Max at some
point, if we're to be neighbors and all," he says, nodding. Yet
unaware of his destiny to be part of that pack.
Just nodding at the rest, he turns to follow after her, looking
carefully around the woods.
"Is the plan to hunt, or..." Solomon's voice trails off as he
notices a veritable horde in the sky. What looks like a gigantic
bird made out of a swarm of smaller birds seems to be patrolling
the area, or maybe just heading somewhere else.
But... apparently the two of them are interesting, because it's
quickly diverting to dive down in their direction...

She noticed the horde of birds at the same time Solomon did.
There was no other way of describing it, it was much more than a
simple flock. As he changed course and started heading for them
she shifted to Dalu and placed herself a bit in front of
Solomon.
“The plan was to see if we could find something friendly to talk
to start. We will see if this is that, or if we unwittingly
stepped into territory we shouldn’t have.”
She waited and once the flock seemed close enough she lifted her
face toward them and spoke with as much authority as she could
muster.
“We do not come seeking aggression, we are not hunting simply
seeking this night.”

"I really hope they listen..." Solomon murmurs in response to
Miri's words.
As the gargantuan horde of birds grows closer, flying at speeds
the pair could only dream of (as they technically are now), it
might seem like Miri's words have been lost on it. Solomon steps
back, looking like he's preparing to do something, as he calls
upon his mastery of Mind to protect his dreaming form from
assault.
But they stop short. It's... actually a fairly fascinating
process to watch, as the front-most birds land on the tree
branches nearby, and the rest of the swarm suddenly collides
into that handful of birds, collapsing in on them like a deck of
shuffled cards, making those avians just a little larger than a
normal starling each.

Rank 3 (probably)
---------------------------------------------------------
As that dozen or so remaining birds land, several of them start
chirping, and then one of them speaks up, using Miri's voice.
“We do not come seeking aggression, we are not hunting simply
seeking this night.”
The rest of them all make fluttery sounds that sound like
bird-laughter. Solomon looks like he might chuckle too until
another one mocks him.
"I really hope they listen..."
Another cacophony of chirpy laughs. The mage is suddenly a
little less amused.
"Come on then, slow ones! Run! We're going exploring!" another
speaks up in a voice closer to what one might expect of a bird.
A fourth chimes in, "Berries! There are berries this way! We saw
them! Come along!"
Fwoosh
The birds take off, and in a reverse of what had just happened,
as each one starts to leap into the air, the horde reforms by
launching outward ahead of them, forming the large flock they
had first spotted.

She looked momentarily annoyed as the spirit birds mimicked what
she had said but she sighed and shook her head letting the
annoyance and and even smirked a bit when the mimicked Solomon
instead. When they were invited to explore with the starlings
she seemed please, up until they all took off if a whoosh
leaving her and Solomon behind. She looked at Solomon for a
moment. They would never keep up with the flock in their human
forms, and she doubted he could take the form of a wolf.
So she shifted not into Uran but into Urshal. the dire wolf
form, and here the The Worlds Dream she was even bigger then the
horse sized would she normally would be. Crouching down she
pointed her nose at Solomon and then at her back in a clear
indication for him to climb on.

Solomon already seems to be doing some mental calculus on the
best way to try and keep up with the birds; he's certainly
better suited for working within the Shadow, even if he's been
developing his Mind magics.
But before he can decide on something, he notices that Miri is
shifting forms, into a particularly large version of a dire
wolf, and his eyes widen slightly. Is she really suggesting he
can ride on her? That's... unexpected.
"You're sure?" he asks, even as he's already moving to carefully
climb onto her back.
The Starlings are moving quickly, but slowly enough that if she
really books it they can probably catch up.
