The Weirdest Dream I Ever Had This happened a while ago, but it’s super interesting so I thought I’d post it. The main focus of the dream was that it was a weird hybrid of BOTW and TOTK, and I was playing it, but also actually part of the story. It included parts also from Karate Kid, AOC, Lord of the Rings, Animal Crossing, and...Elden Ring?? It took place in a weird, third-person kind of experience, but I was kind of Link and myself at the same time. I had neon-ish yellow hair and Link's tunic. The first very vivid and definite thing was that I was on a small sky islet, with a few trees behind me, and I think a ruined house. I couldn’t see the surface because of a thick layer of clouds. There was a bigger island some ways to the left but disconnected (I think). It had the usual, some trees and a pond of water. There might've also been some birds, because, you know, sky island. In front of me there was a detached other island with a pool of water, and then a tall rock spire on its left side with a waterfall and a cave at the bottom. Up in the sky, above the leftmost island, there was a smaller island pretty far up, past the rock spire. For some reason, I had to get to that island, because Zelda was up there. I think she might've called out to me or something? I also remember a detached part of the dream in which I was swimming in the water below the waterfall, catching fish. Anyway, the next thing I remember was very much detached from this part, it might have taken place on, like, the rock spire, but anyway I was in a high-up, disconnected volcanic sky island, following a path inside the island. I was supposed to be doing the Fire Temple on my way up to Zelda, I think. The island was shaking and the walls had lava in them. At one point I was watching myself ascend instead of doing it myself. At the end of the path there was some weird maze of lasers, and whoever I was with (not Yunobo) was encouraging me to get past them. It was a lot like that one shrine in Tabantha. So I think I got past the first bit, pretty easily, but at the end there was a grid of lasers that was moving super fast and I couldn't get through. My companion/whoever was with me told me to focus and breathe. I closed my eyes and took a lot of deep breaths, then managed to karate chop the space between the laser grid with my hand, miraculously, instead of slipping past. For some reason after that I could get past. Then, I was doing the Lightning Temple, which I don't really remember. At the end, though, I got a weirdly shaped "amber earring" that was supposed to be something related to the Sage. It looked like a Steward Construct's earring, but orange/gold. Finally, I reached the top island. Zelda was there, working at a desk and wearing her Zonai outfit. It was a small square shaped room, with a desk like the one I own at the far wall, large windows to the left, Zelda to the right and an open wall behind me that I'd come from. I talked to Zelda about something. Then, I hid and crouched behind the filing cabinet/drawer component of the far wall's desk. Ganondorf (in his final form) came in, but I couldn't see him very well because he disappeared out of my sight behind the drawer. I heard something (I don't remember what) but it might've been a "Zelda's power is ready" sort of thing. Then I think her icon popped up on my screen to the right, with some words, sort of like in AOC. I stepped out from behind the drawers to confront Ganondorf. He had apparently stolen Zelda's body! He immediately hopped to the left side of the desk, and I repositioned myself so that my back was to the open area and the windows were on our left. All of a sudden he was in his usual form (still the final one) and then... I don't remember anything. After that I had a weird sort of cutscene in which I was being dragged/held up by a group of men (who looked a lot like Ordon villagers from the TP manga) in the woods, but it wasn't me, it was Link, and I was watching it like a normal BOTW cutscene. Zelda was in the foreground, her head taking up the left side of the screen, but her back was to me. The trees were Zelda-graphics kind of trees, but the camera never shifted and so all I saw behind the people was a smudgy line of green, but with distinct trees. It looked a bit like the Minish Woods. Zelda's hair was in the braided short crown and she was wearing her TOTK intro outfit. I also distinctly remember a "Skip" button to the bottom right. I/Link was holding the Master Sword in my/his left hand, it was kind of Gloom destroyed/ish, but it was still intact and more covered in light brown patches. Zelda said something about needing to attack "Ganon" (not Ganondorf) and then something about Divine Beasts. Then I (still don't know if I'm the player or Link, I guess I was both ?) skipped the cutscene, and thought/said something like "Wait, I'm playing the wrong game!"
Then I was back on a sky island (at night), and I needed to find the fifth sage or something. I was supposed to go fight Ganondorf, and I remember thinking "I've barely done any shrines yet! I can't beat the game!" Despite that, suddenly I was in the final battle. I don't know if it just happened in my head (not the dream) but I remember the Waterblight music playing, and I had it in my head when I woke up. Maybe also the SW/SH Max Raid Battle music? I was on a long, skinny bridge with Ganondorf at one end and I at the other. The bridge had water on both sides, and there were a lot of hills on both sides of the lake, mainly behind and to Ganondorf’s left and right. The sun was setting and the sky was orange. Suddenly, there was a WEIRD cutscene where Ganondorf transformed into some weird Elden Ring (I know right??) boss and walked/stomped around a bit, then got super mad. He looked a lot like Gollum from LOTR. Then he was back to normal, and his head looked weird and bald like Gollum's in the next cutscene as I watched him yell something. Then I was fighting him. We each had a team of magical creatures (?) on our side. Ganondorf (who no longer looked like Gollum) had a weird flying fire lion/manticore thing like a hotcat from The Dragon Prince on his side. I was riding a unicorn with a hot-pink and red spiraled horn, and a white body, plus I had a matching lance. I called on the power of a creature I had (might've been a white griffin with black spots) and used its ability to channel shockwaves of water that raced across the bridge, close to the ground and one on top of another. This prevented the manticore from attacking us, since Water > Fire. I charged at Ganondorf, holding my lance and riding my unicorn. For some reason (I think it was a fact/text box in the top left), I knew that hitting Ganondorf wouldn't damage the unicorn much or kill it instantly since it had a lot of health. I ran at him, hit him (though I don't remember it connecting) and then pivoted and rode in the other direction. Yeah, that was it. The weirdest Zelda dream I ever had. (I mean there was also that one with Rauru in a library…)
