TOBIAS WEDEKIND
Explores lucid dreams to reconnect with lost wife, Regula.
Neglects his daughter, Maja, causing a strained relationship as he loses touch with the waking world.
Appears to have uncovered the true nature of dreams and reality, making him a target for those concealing the truth about Dreamshares.
Disappears under mysterious circumstances.
Scheinwelt
The danger was unmistakable and unforgiving. Each foray into the Scheinwelt meant leaving Maja behind a harsh trade for moments with Regula again. My daughter is slipping away from me.
The pull to the Scheinwelt, the desperate need to be with my wife, intensifies with every descent. I can only be at one place at a time, either awake or in a dream. So far, the physics. Yet, is that really a law of nature?
If my theory is correct, we could all be together, forever.
Fueled by the unbreakable spirit of youth

Dreams are battles.
There I was, seeking a ghostly reunion with Regula, while Maja, my flesh and blood, embarked on a relentless quest for retrieval. Her drive, untempered by the scars of age, was tearing through the fragile fabric of our shared past.
Her lucid meddling on the dream side was starting to unravel things I needed to keep secret
