Description
Nightmare time!
Well, I don’t know how much scary would you find this. I guess all depends on personal fears. For me… it was enough disturbing to put it in the nightmare category.
Sunrise. I was walking through some waste deserted place. Was it a desert? Could be. I saw multiple hills around.
At some point, I found myself between a few low hills surrounding lowland covered with morning fog. That place looked interesting. Sun was slowly rising revealing that place in the sunlight. I noticed that there were many and many large formless… boulders? Those things had the same color and pattern like all the small rocks around. I was walking in-between those ‘boulders’ until I noticed that they were getting alive as fast as the sun touched them.
What I took for boulders were, in reality, something close to sea slugs. Creatures were around 2 to 5 m long. They were sleeping turned in balls, but as fast as sun showed up, they unpacked themselves and started slowly moving uphill while opening and revealing some structure on their backs that looked like trees with red leaves. Those structures looked solid and strong, but very soon I learned that it was very light, soft and hollow inside…
Really soon I was surrounded by moving forest made by those creatures. All of it was just stunning. I was glad to be there…. And then I touched one of creature’s ‘tree’ branch with my shoulder…. It immediately wrapped itself around my arm and back like some octopus’s tentacles and pulled to the creature with a lot of force. Then I saw that at the ‘root’ of those ‘trees’ was hidden mouth with a large sharp beak. I panicked and started trying to get out.
All of those branches.., tentacles were weak, but there were just too much of them and there was no way not to touch more while getting rid of the ones that already were on me. The worst part that the creature continued to move toward the hill completely ignoring me and other creatures were all around piling together choosing an easy path for themselves. I was dangerously close to the moment when there would be no way out.
I finally released myself and almost crawled out from their way. Miraculously avoiding more contact. Creatures continued their way until they were on the hill. Now it looked like a nice small forest of red leaves. I guessed, they were hunting for birds and other flying creatures that would be trapped as fast as they land on those fake trees.

That is quite scary . Those fake trees could have been parasites or perhaps symbiotes. I say this because he other creature (slugs) seem to not be in control of them. It would suck if they were parasite, because if that was the case, they could be the ones making the slugs move to the sunlight until they slowly consume the slugs....I'm hoping it's symbiotes who seem to be a bit protective though
. Now I feel nauseous
. How did you get the rocks to look so awesome like that?

You are welcome. However, trees are not always evil. You can listen to this wonderful Enya music. I used it in the opening of one part of my stories.

I love trees. Even those slugs weren't evil. They are just some dream creatures. So, everything is fine XD
Oh, yes! Enya! Like her music! Thank you so much!

Indeed a terrifing Nightmare. Reminds me of the SCP-Foundation a little bit.
I often dream, when I have a nightmare, that there is a Tree or some Roots, wich are growing really fast. In one of that Nightmare, there where some kind of roots made out of some sort of metal. In the End the roots drilled through my chest.

Oh, those are terrifying images you have! I usually fall from everything, but evil trees are somewhat rare.

This dreams I had are also very rare. Usually I dream other stuff, wich isn´t as disturbing as that kind of dreams I had described.

I dream so awesome, although in my point of view it did not seem like a nightmare even though you had something of a lot of attention and you almost ate those things but had a happy ending

On first look I thought, this is stunning! What happened to make this a nightmare? And after reading, I get it. That sounds terrifying and cool at the same time to make this artwork! Love the creativity (though having that nightmare...probably not a fun experience )
