Description

"...And when the night shrouds over the land, a cluster of sheep-like clouds forms in the sky where Nular, the Night Spirit, fosters the peace of the night. It is considered a good omen if one encounters the majestic beast in their dreams, as something extraordinarily great will happen when they wake up. Do not anger or provoke the spirit as it has the power to put visitors into deep sleeps that cannot be awaken from."
~ Old Shaman

"What we gathered from our volunteers during our oneirology examinations throughout the past six months, 12% confirmed that they saw the creature. From their description it had the face of an owl, exaggerated antlers of a stag, a body of a bear, and a tail of considerable length. There were no signs of gesticulation or noise. It's size altered from person to person but ranged from the size of an apple and as big as a whale. Some also noticed that it was clinging to a spherical object but we have no details on it. We are still working on the nature of the so-called 'Nular'."
~ The Scientist

"It was there! I saw it! Bright as the sun and as big as a gorilla! I didn't want to disturb it's sleep, but as I was so astounded by it's presence I couldn't help but cry. That's when I suddenly woke up, and realised I had overslept and was late for work! I rushed towards my office when I accidently bumped into a lady riding a bicycle. I apologised to her for my clumsiness, she forgave me, we had a laugh about it... and we had our first date that night. Who could've predicted that 50 years ago on that day, I met my future wife... and yet I still reckon that creature had something to do with it. What do you think?"
~ Ned
