Chapter 12: The Dream That Devours Gods
> "To rule the world, I must rule even what people believe is real."
—Bella Snow

• Midnight – Abyss Castle, Astral Chamber
In the high tower where no fire burned and no reflection held form, Bella sat cross-legged in a magic circle carved in dragonblood ink. Her aura was dimmed, not because it weakened—but because light had no meaning where she was going.
Standing beside her was Celene, her silver-eyed Saintess, now reborn as the Moon Whisperer.
"Mistress," Celene said softly, "even you may not be safe in that place."
Bella opened her Abyssal Trinity Eye, the layers shimmering with dream runes now added by Celene's magic.

"I don't want safety," Bella said coldly.
"I want control."
And with a breath, they entered the Dream Realm.

• Inside the Dream of Gods
The sky was painted in ink and gold, endlessly shifting.
Trees wept starlight.
And far above, floating like a moon inside a glass prison, was a creature of impossible beauty and horror.
The Dreambeast.
Its form shifted with every blink — sometimes a fox with nine tails, sometimes a butterfly made of clocks, sometimes a child with a thousand eyes.

[Danger Level: Unmeasurable. Status: Curious.]
Bella hovered in the air, her eyes spinning with divine and abyssal runes.
Oneiryn spoke in a thousand voices:
"I am the dream that gods fear.
I am the lie that became truth.
Why… do you chase me, waking one?"
Bella floated closer, aura suppressing the stars.
"I don't chase," she said.
"I claim."

• The Dream War
Oneiryn laughed—and the dream shattered.
Suddenly, Bella stood in a burning village, her body weak, her voice broken.
A child's voice cried: "Sister, save me!"
She blinked. "What—?"
> [Warning: You are inside an illusion built from lost memory threads.]
Then the scene changed.
A battlefield.
Bella stood alone against divine soldiers.
Her hands were stained with Celene's blood.
Again, it changed.
The throne room.
She was being crowned queen—but every one of her lovers turned their backs to her.
She screamed in rage.
And then—she laughed.

• Bella's Will Awakens
"You think dreams break me?" Bella asked, voice shaking the false world.
Her Trinity Eye ignited, burning through every false image, absorbing them instead of resisting.

The Dreambeast began to falter.
"You… aren't mortal."
Bella reached out her hand.
"I am nightmare made flesh."

• Contract of the Dream
The Dreambeast bowed midair, forming a symbol with its shifting form — a circle of eyes, wings, and thorns.
It spoke:
> "I surrender.
Let me dream through you.
Let me feed only on your enemies' regrets."
Bella placed her palm on its forehead.

• Return to the World
Bella opened her eyes in the Astral Chamber.
Celene wept softly beside her—not in fear, but in relief.
"You… did it."
Bella rose, brushing dream dust from her fingers.
"I did more than that."
She looked toward the sky, where divine lightning was beginning to tear the clouds.
"I now control what mortals fear in sleep."
