This picks up the story of Maxx from the fourth page of The Character Generation Thread.
You still feel yourself floating, weightless, without any sensory input apart from that--no light, no sound, no smell or taste, nothing at all.
You realize that you are tired; then you realize that your consciousness is returning. You may have been asleep, but you do not know even whether that is so, never mind for how long.

The first thing that came to my mind (if I can think at that moment) is this a system bug?
I should have been awake at this point so why am I still not awake.
Am I still in the sensory deprivation tank?
If I cannot feel anything does that mean that I cannot feel myself move when trying to move?
So lets try outer body experience that uses sixth sense to know exactly what is going on. Probably a remote sensing variation.
If I cannot do that then I will wait it out until I can get some sensory input.
As you attempt to move your arms and legs, you cannot tell whether they are moving or not. It seems that your kinesthetic sense may have been disabled--a moment ago when you were in the game, you could feel your imaginary limbs moving, which suggests that the mind/machine interface portion of the system must have bypassed both your kinesthetic sense and your motor control so that you could control your imagined body movements without interacting with your real body. However, this is all guesswork on your part. All you know for certain is that a while ago you were in control of and experiencing an imaginary body, and now you have neither experience nor control of any body at all.
You do have the sensation of floating.
You have suggested using some sort of outer body experience, which you suggest might be a "remote sensing variation", to get data from beyond yourself. Have you ever done this, or anything like this? Your description makes it sound like a psionic skill, that is, a skill that draws on power or ability within your own mind or soul (as opposed to supernatural power from beyond the universe, which would be magical), but you can correct me if I am mistaken.
This is why a character sheet matters. In order for me to determine whether you can do this successfully, I will need to have:
Based on this, I can attempt to determine whether you are able to do what you describe.

Lets just say that I am (probably) a normal average person last time I remember.
I may have a dream of a out of body experience but that may have just been a dream.
Also with the proper variable, maybe I can simulate reality in my imagination.
I think the below is the list of some Psionic skills that may relate to given situation:
Reading person body language or expression.
Lucid dreaming.
Mental calculation.
Mental simulation.
My intuition maybe affected by how much variable that I know about the situation given.
My persuasion power maybe high considering you agreed to run the game this way.
My will power will be affected by how much interest I have in certain things where the more interesting or intriguing the things are the higher my will power will be.
If I have to rank them in this situation, maybe intuition, will power, and then persuasion.
You are unable to get outside yourself at this time, and the effort tires you. You feel yourself coming back to consciousness.
You also have a strange and growing feeling of weakness. You would think it hunger, but that there is no sensation of stomach discomfort, more a feeling of malnutrition, as if you were living on your fat reserves and depleting them.
You still have no sensation of limbs and no sensory information.

Then I thought to myself half jokingly that the electrical dragon breath got me good.
Then I rest until anything else changes while dreaming about possibilities of getting out of this situation.
I will also try to remember each sensation I have such as floating and feeling weakness that may been caused by malnutrition for my future reference.
I will try to remember the feeling as accurate as possible just to sharpen my memorization technique.
I will also try to count in my mind to see how much time have past since then in a rate of about 1 increment per second when I am awake.
I also wonder if I can somehow affect anything at all such as shifting my own location even if I cannot feel myself moving.
Does the floating feeling change in the slightest way or is it a constant?
I will check my own intuition to see if I am moving in a certain way or pattern.
Your periods of consciousness seem to run between five and twenty minutes. It is difficult to be certain, because you realize you are not mouthing the numbers but merely trying to tick them off in your own mind. You cannot assess the periods of unconsciousness. However, you are continuing to weaken, and although you have no idea how many times you have been asleep (or whether the monotonous counting contributes to this), it seems like days have passed.
Then there is a change. It is difficult to assess, precisely, but your sensation of floating has changed, and you are no longer losing body mass. You sometimes have the sensation of movement, a very erratic movement as if the sensory deprivation tank were being transported by package handlers working for the post office. At the same time, you don't really have much sense of "up" and "down", although you do have a sense that you are connected to something--you do not literally feel the connection point, but you do feel as if you move when the tank moves without bumping the walls of the tank, that something is steadying your position within it.
You also are receiving nutrition from somewhere; that feeling of weakness is starting to subside.

This seems very familiar.
It is just like being in the womb.
Probably this is a simulation of being in the womb that someone programmed into the virtual reality machine for prank.
By following this train of thought, it is very tempting to try to change the natural process by manipulating twinning or mutation process but I think it is better for nature to take its own course.
I will keep this in mind though for future reference.
I will stop the counting for every second to minimize energy consumption.
I will count the time I alternate between consciousness and unconsciousness.
Since I can now feel something, I will try to move and see what feedback that I will get.
Can I feel temperature differences such as hot or cold to tell part day or night?
Can I tell whether I received nutrition constantly or is it on a certain interval?
I will then memorize any changes that is happening.
After that experiment, I will rest until I can sense any new changes.
There are two obstacles to your efforts to count your consciousness/unconsciousness cycles. One is that you are not always certain whether you were unconscious or not--after all, it's not as if there's something happening of which you are aware and then there's a gap in it, it's only a sense that you are awakening to nothingness after being unaware of it for a moment. The other is that the number gets fairly high fairly quickly, going into the hundreds before long.
Your body does not respond to efforts to move any part. It might be comparable to having all your limbs "asleep", in that you have no feeling from them and they do not move in response to motor commands. On the other hand, it could be entirely neural, that your brain is not communicating with your body parts. At present, though, you are unable to confirm the existence or absence of body parts of any sort, except that you still feel some kind of connection to something that sometimes moves.
The flow of nutrition is difficult to gauge, as your sense of it is more that you were burning reserves and you are now building reserves. It could be constant or intermittent or fluctuating, as presumably even if you were receiving the nutrients in periodic pulses your body would have to process it for you to be aware of it.

At this time, something came up to my mind.
If this is in the womb simulation, should I be able to think already at this point?
If I am not mistaken the brain function will come in the later phase.
I came up with some theories about how this could happen.
a) Probably the simulation of my avatar give the senses to my mind in the other world.
b) My body and mind are not linked the way the science in my past world does.
c) Soul possession of any body can bring forth the sense of the body even if the body does not have a brain.
d) Something like above or combination of it must have happen.
e) None of the above are true which means something else must have happen.
----------------
The count is just an estimate after all.
I will match my count with any changes that happen at all.
From there I will see if I can find any pattern at all.
Another theory of day or night is:
a) In the day the movement rate may be higher than the night.
b) The day nutrition may be higher than the night.
I will try harder to differentiate the flow of nutrition by giving more attention to the slightest detail available.
As they say, difficult is not impossible.
This way, I can train my available sense and mind.
Can I feel where the nutrition connection is coming from?
If I can, I will label this as a 'relative up'.
Can I feel gravity force pull at this moment?
It is unlikely but if I can, I will label this as a 'gravity down'.
With this info, I probably can calculate any positional change that happen.
Other questions that came to my mind that I will give attention to are:
a) How do I feel the movement? Do I feel change of pressure?
b) Can I detect change of temperature?
c) Do anything I feel such as when I am feeling hungry gets a feedback? What is it?
If I get tired, I will rest until something new happens.
You have a feeling of rejuvenation, of growth or healing or wellness. You feel secure.
As to movement, it is difficult to say. You do not feel gravity, and have no sense of up or down. The connection point you can sometimes identify because it moves first and becomes stable first--the rest of you continuing to shift or bob in the tank after it stops. That feeling is entirely internal, as if your internal organs were shaking, but you cannot identify any particular internal organs.
You sense no change in temperature, but whether that is because the temperature has been constant and you are acclimated to it or whether you simply cannot feel temperature is more than you can determine. It is possible that at times you might feel something that might be pressure, but you body acclimates to any such changes rapidly, almost as if it were part of the surrounding liquid.
You no longer feel hungry at any time; you feel as if you are receiving adequate nutrition somehow.

Very interesting indeed.
The results are as expected.
"If I can think at this point maybe I can do something more", I thought to myself.
People sometime says that the connection of mother and child are very strong especially when in the womb.
With all the hormone exchange between mother and child they probably can communicate subconsciously.
With that said, I will try to emulate the thinking of the mother through the connection that we have.
This is probably a mind reading with empathy variant.
If it works I will experiment with this new power.
If it does not work, I will rest until something new happens.
You feel around and have the sense that this is something you should be able to do, but at the moment you cannot find what you are seeking. It might be that the target is asleep, although whether reading a sleeping mind would connect you to a dream is something you've not really considered. It is certainly worth trying again later, but now the effort has tired you, and you find yourself drifting off to sleep once more.
You awaken again in much the same condition.
--M. J. Young

Well, connecting to a dream might be a good way to know what a person hopes are.
But if I recall, a dream does not occur in every sleep so it is possible that the mother have a dreamless sleep.
My intuition says it is certainly worth trying again so that is what I will do for at least 7 more consciousness/unconsciousness cycles until I succeed.
If I succeeded in less than 7 attempts then I will start experimenting on them.
If not, I will rest until anything new happens.
Why 7 attempts? It seems to cover a week.
Naturally I would do 3 attempts but with the lack of options and information from my part this seems to be a good bet.
Anything new that happens in those 7 consciousness/unconsciousness cycles will be noted.
Third time is the charm: on your third attempt (including the one already past) you find the mind of someone who is thinking about gathering berries in the woods. As you stay with this mind, it wanders to questions about what Morani is going to bring back from the hunt and whether it will be big enough that they'll want to share it with others so it won't spoil, whether they have enough "mithisella" for fires and whether it will stay dry in the tree. Thoughts also are about how to make the tree comfortable before winter, which is apparently some time away, but this is a new home and this person is in a new situation--previously living with parents, now living with a new loved one.
You stay with it for what seems a long time, but then drop back into unconsciousness and lose the link.

Wow! It worked better than I hoped. What a good simulation.
It have the ability to even calculate things like this.
It seems like a second world to me and even better simulation then the world that I have play-tested.
Then again, who would make this kind of simulation for a prank.
The programmer might have something to convey to me and it is up to me to decipher the message.
This might be interesting.
I would have to reconsider the possibility that I am no longer in a normal simulation.
But then again, I have always play any simulation seriously.
This is because I always believe that the world is some sort of simulation.
So, any simulation that is good enough to affect all of my senses must be treated equally.
--------
I have some theories from the info I get.
1) There are berries in the woods close-by considering a pregnant mother would not go far.
2) Morani might be my father in this world or the leader of the hunt.
3) Refrigerator might not be available here considering food might spoil.
4) This might be a tribe in the woods setting considering there are others to share.
5) "Mithisella" is what is used as a burning fuel and may be ineffective if it is not dry.
6) "Tree" is where we live and it is a new home.
7) Winter is coming soon.
I will remember how to do the mind reading ability and practice using it regularly to know more information about the mother.
I will note down any changes or information that I get.
I will rest when I feel tired practicing the mind reading ability.
I will also think of a new way to gain more information such as reading specific sense of the mother such as sight or auditory.
But for now, I will just familiarize myself with the mind of the mother until I think I can do the above.
Morani does appear to be the husband of the person whose mind you are tapping, who is a woman. There is as yet no suggestion that she might be your mother, other than that you were looking for someone very close at hand and found someone who frequently seems to be there when you look. (The fact that you are "practicing" your mind reading means it works sometimes and not other times; you could not be certain whether the target is present when it does not work. In fact, the way you read the mind seems to be something like tuning in a radio signal, and so you cannot be certain that she is near when you do contact her. The strength and duration of the contact both vary, but you have very little information concerning why.)
In addition to berries, your target also gathers nuts and some fruits and leaves, and makes something like tea and several other foods. You never did find out what the hunt returned that day, and meat seems to be thought about as roast, steak, bird, and fish, without much concerning roast what or what kind of bird or fish. The diet is rather varied, though.

It is rather weird if the person very close at hand turned out not to be the mother but just lets give it a benefit of a doubt.
Information that interests me:
1) Do I get the name of the person I tapped into?
2) Do this person know if anyone (self-included) is pregnant and when is it due?
3) How does this person perceive time?
4) Could I guess if this person is in conversation with anyone?
5) What does this person find interesting?
I will try to remember the frequency/state of mind (radio signal reference) of the person I tapped into.
In practice of course there are success and failures.
I will calculate the percentage of my success rate of my mind reading in 10 succession.
I would like to diversify my mind reading practice to other person who have contact with my presumably mother especially Morani.
This can be called mind reading network.
That way I could get more information.
Any changes or pattern are noted for future reference.
And like usual, a good rest when tired unless specified otherwise.
Your idea of counting successes versus failures is pretty good, but it faces the problem that you keep falling asleep and have to remember from one time to the next what the count is. For that I'm going to want an intellect check--and that means I need your intellect. How smart are you? Figure it this way: if there are two people in the room, are you probably the smarter? How about three? Ten? Fifty? A hundred?
It is rather unusual for someone to think his or her own name; your target has not done so while you were eavesdropping. Also, there has been no thought of pregnancy at this point.
As to time, there have been no numerical references (e.g., it's never "ten o'clock"), but rather an ordinary flow of the day, as in morning, lunchtime, afternoon, and at least some sense of the progression of days, although if the days have names you've not picked up on them yet.
There are occasional times when the person's thoughts seem to be interacting with something outside your data. These might be conversation. They might, of course, be telepathic, if telepathy is sent and received from a part of the brain distinct from the part you are reading--but since I suspect you have no experience with telepathy, you would not know that. The person might be crazy, and be interacting with thoughts from another part of her own mind, but it's not clear why you would not be able to read those thoughts.
Her interests mostly seem to center on making a comfortable home for herself and Morani. This seems two-fold--there is some thought about a tree, but they don't live in the tree right now, they live near the tree. They seem to have meals outside in a clearing, and sleep outside.
You find no other minds over the next few days.

Can you probably tell my intellect by the way I am playing this game?
How about the intellect of a university student (at least)?
About the name I have guessed it is very difficult to know considering she will not think of her own name unless someone ask about it and for it to happen she will have to met a stranger which is not likely.
Well for now I will call her 'the mother'.
This is also the reason why I want to read Morani's mind.
No thought of pregnancy might mean that the pregnancy is still in the early stage.
I still have long way to go.
The interaction that might represent conversation interests me.
In this situation, I will try reading other part of the brain by visualizing where the thoughts go to and following them.
The tree might be where they live in the winter considering it might be dangerous sleeping outside in the winter.
As for the state of mind for Morani, I will make a jigsaw puzzle out of it from the information I got from 'the mother'. So the more information I get from 'the mother' the higher the chance of me connecting to Morani.
University students can be pretty stupid if they're also diligent workers. Your schooling is reflected in your education level. As far as assessing your intellect from your play, I might have trouble doing that live, and it's the more difficult through this medium. But since you did not claim to be a extraordinary and you do think you are above average, I'll put it down as 1@8.
I'll be back to post again tomorrow, Lord willing.

Let just say that I do not have to give too much effort to understand things.
Even if (hypothetically) I might be an extraordinary person I would not want to claim as one.
I would accept the 1@8 rating happily.
Fate is what brought me here.
Let see what Lord has planned for me.
You seem to succeed in finding "the mother"'s mind one time in three.
You attempt to find the part of the brain that prepares and controls spoken words, but you don't manage to connect on that attempt. You can of course try again.
There is not really that much hard data on Morani in the mother's surface thoughts. She thinks about how much she loves him, how wonderful he is; she worries about him when he hunts, and about whether he is in danger from something she tries to keep out of her thoughts, something large and dangerous. She reassures herself that they live pretty far from those creatures. Otherwise, she does not think that much about him in any way that is very helpful to your efforts to get a picture of his mental frequency.

I will attempt to find the part of the brain that prepares and controls spoken words each time I feel 'the mother' is having a conversation.
This information might go through language center to be spoken in words.
If I find it, I will remember this spot for future reference.
I will then try to trace the source of information further back.
This might represent short-term memory, long-term memory or other senses.
The main source of information for conversation might come from auditory sense.
By visualizing a branch of river connecting, I will trace the route back to the flow that transfers more mass (which is information in this case).
I will take my time mapping the 'the mother' state of mind.
I will also like to attempt to lucid dream when I rest to see if I can connect my dream with 'the mother' in a dream world or 'dreamscape'.
I will remember the keywords for what I wanted to dream.
The keywords are:
1) Morani
2) Who
3) Late
The first keyword is to let 'the mother' call for Morani so she then can visualize how Morani look like. This usually is seen from first-person view.
The second keyword is to let the 'dreamed-up Morani' to ask who to the one that called him. This will let 'the mother' visualize herself and telling her name. This usually is seen from third-person view.
The third keyword is to give a hint to 'the mother' about the pregnancy by letting her thought to herself that 'something' might be late.
The keywords are use to reinforce the connection between me and 'the mother' to exchange information (first + second = third).
I will try this until I get:
1) Morani appearance
2) 'The mother' name and appearance
3) Confirmation of 'the mother' pregnancy
How is the environment in the womb now? Any changes?
I will note down any changes in the womb.
I will also note down information from the mind exploration and lucid dreaming experiment.
You awaken one day--well, presumably it is a day--and realize with abruptness that the world is now brilliantly lit, where before it had always been dark--or not dark, really, rather that there had been no light nor any absence of light, merely the absence of any visual information. Now you have visual information, but it is all a blur, as if your eyes were encased on some sort of gel. You also hear sound, faintly but constantly. It is the sound of fluid mechanics, as if powerful pulsing pumps were forcing liquid through vast pipes in the unseen walls around you. There is a regular beat, an off-rhythm double thump that maintains a slow but constant rate, somewhere behind this.
You also realize that there is another sound, and this one you can feel within yourself--it is much faster than the pulse around you, but you realize it is your heart beating in your chest.
You are not yet making progress on reading beyond the mother's present surface thoughts, although significant parts of that are that you are really very new at this and you are always tiring and drifting back into unconsciousness.
I'm a bit confused. Are you trying to teach yourself to perform a psionic telepathic skill while you are asleep, or are you doing something else--trying, perhaps, to step into a sort of parallel world of mind, which is experienced something like dreaming?
--M. J. Young

Yay! Some sensory input at last.
Normally, I would probably have to wait longer to even develop this kind of senses but I am thankful to what have been given to me.
Well now I can probably differentiate between night and day.
Lets start counting days using the alternation of light and dark.
The count should be lower than the actual day because I may lose consciousness between the alternation but it should give me a rough estimate.
Hearing sound is also great.
Now I can probably hear the conversation of mother with someone else provided that I can filter out any sound interferences.
If the sound is near constant, I can probably eliminate it by fusing it with a imaginary reverse sound wave (which is probably how brain works to filter sound).
Given the gift of hearing, I will now alternate the mind exploration with sound filtration each time I think 'the mother' is having a conversation.
I will record the effectiveness of both technique for future reference.
It is said a dream can connect others.
The dream may make the connection to others easier as the conscious mind resistance is nullified.
This can make telepathy easier or at most the same difficulty as mind reading.
Some might also say that a 'dreamscape' is sort of parallel word of mind which exists in a dream.
So to do it both 'the mother' and me must be in a dream.
The anxiety of 'the mother' for her husband safety might trigger a dream.
I'm a bit confused. Are you trying to teach yourself to perform a psionic telepathic skill while you are asleep, or are you doing something else--trying, perhaps, to step into a sort of parallel world of mind, which is experienced something like dreaming?
So the assumption of doing something sort of telepathy skill in dream and stepping in a parallel world of mind might be true but I am not very sure about teaching yourself part (it comes with lucid dreaming package) and experience something like dreaming part (it is a dream).
I will note down any changes in the womb compared to counted day.
I will also note down the result of sound filtration, mind exploration and lucid dreaming experiment.
Happy Father's Day to all fathers and fathers-to-be.
Well, I hope that I can sent this message telepathically to Morani as a special gift.
What you find is that your periods of wakefulness and probably of sleep are much shorter than the cycle of days and nights--you will awaken maybe a dozen times to light, and then another dozen to darkness, more or less, and then it will be light again. The light level alters, as well, sometimes brighter and sometimes not so bright, although the darkness is usually total when it is dark.
The background noise is not exactly constant. Rather, the loudest part pulses, changing pitch and volume in surges something like surf at the shore, only faster. This sometimes changes in rate, but not greatly. There are other sounds as well. The most prevalent is a more distant sound something like wind passing through a pipe, which happens in pulses and comes to a complete momentary silence between each pulse. These pulses vary significantly in speed, but there is some imperfect correlation between the feeling of movement and the faster pulsations of the wind. There are also sounds of liquids gurgling sometimes. Behind all this, you hear the occasional erratic tones that might be speech, consonants blurred out completely, vowels barely distinguishable, as if someone were humming an unmelodious song with intricate rhythms. In the breaks you hear an even fainter but similar rumble, of a lower pitch, in response, and sometimes these two sounds overlap.
Now, when you speak of generating an inverse sound wave, do you mean that you intend somehow to create sound that counters the background noise, or are you taking about doing something inside your own brain?
When I say "teach yourself", I mean only that you are going to attempt to do something you have not done previously, and in the process create a skill or ability that you can attempt to use again in the future. Don't get hung up on those words; if you're trying to do something you've not done before, that's teaching yourself a new skill.
To distinguish the two possibilities about which I am asking, there is the possibility that you intend to go to sleep and to dream, but to attempt to recognize that you are dreaming and take control of the dream, then within the dream dream that you have telepathy, and use the power you've imagined in the dream to telepathically contact your mother, provided she is also dreaming. She would then dream that you contacted her telepathically.
There is the possibility that you are going to wait for a time when you believe your mother is probably asleep and might be dreaming, and then attempt to contact her telepathically by putting yourself in a dream-like state through which you reach out to her mind to connect to her in the dream.
It occurs to me that it might be instead that what you want to do is starting with one of those approaches (e.g., either realizing that you are dreaming already or moving into a dream-like state) you wish to connect your dream to the mother's dream, such that you can see her as a character in your dream and she can see you as a character in hers, and thus you would be sharing a dream and holding a conversation within the dream.
I'll admit that I am not at this moment entirely certain how I would cover any of those skills, but I'm sure I can, and so at the moment it's just that I want to know which I should be trying to cover before I put a lot of time into the wrong idea.

The 'counted day' are counted using the alternation of total darkness and any source of light.
I know that the sound is not constant.
Maybe I should rephrase 'near constant' as a pattern that is easily predicted.
In the breaks you hear an even fainter but similar rumble, of a lower pitch, in response, and sometimes these two sounds overlap.
This may be the voice of a male (probably Morani) because it is said that a male voice have lower pitch. The one before might be 'the mother' but all this is just guesswork.
Now, when you speak of generating an inverse sound wave, do you mean that you intend somehow to create sound that counters the background noise, or are you taking about doing something inside your own brain?
I think the imaginary inverse sound wave means doing something inside my own brain.
Let just say that I have never done lucid dreaming in this kind of state before so you can probably say it is a new skill.
It occurs to me that it might be instead that what you want to do is starting with one of those approaches (e.g., either realizing that you are dreaming already or moving into a dream-like state) you wish to connect your dream to the mother's dream, such that you can see her as a character in your dream and she can see you as a character in hers, and thus you would be sharing a dream and holding a conversation within the dream.
It can start with me realizing that I am within a dream or trying to go into a state of dreaming when I think 'the mother' is dreaming.
I do not think I can hold a conversation just yet with my level of lucid dreaming but I think I can suggest a couple of keyword to affect the dream 'the mother' is having.
I do not think I can be a character of 'the mother' dream.
This means I will be more of an observer but if I can maybe I will try to appear as Morani (then asking who had call) and then let 'the mother' take control of the dream because she knows Morani better than me.
If I have to give a name to this skill it might be 'Dream hypnosis with telepathic lucid dreaming suggestion variant'. Well, I hope you can enlighten me as how this will fit into the system.
You connect to someone, but it's not in the dream, and you are not asleep--and neither is she.
You are very confused about what has happened, why you are suddenly floating, and why you are not drowning. There is a blurry world around you, and loud noises that you don't understand; and yet you do understand, because they have been there for a long time, even though they are new.
At the same time, you can see the forest. You can see the fire, and the meat roasting on the fire. It appears to be about the size of a dog or a pig, but has the shape of a mouse. Your hands are working with the tools--but you are surprised, because they are delicate, feminine hands. Nothing about this surprises you, and yet it all surprises you.
Your name is Theian Orlina Lelach, and you are married to Theian Alanda Morani. He calls you Mori, and you call him Rani. But then, that's not you--you are someone else, and your real name passes through your mind, along with images of your real life. You live here in the woods, and your winter home is that hole up there in that huge tree--the base of the tree is at least several times your height, and that hole must be half way to heaven. You wonder how you could possibly climb to reach that, and you wonder why you are wondering or why you would ever think about climbing. You wonder that your mind is so confused, filled with images as you remember your bed back in your room at home, and at the same time do not understand why a bed would look like that, or what sort of room that might be. It looks like it might be a human room, actually, and you can't think why you would ever live in a human room; but of course, you are human, so you would; but then, you're not human, thanks be to the King, and it is insane to think this way.
You sit down. The confusion is overwhelming. It is as if something had come into your mind from somewhere else, another person, an alien being, planting ideas, images, memories that are not your own; and yet they all seem to be yours, as if you lived another life in another time and place.
And that sound, that pulsating pounding sound that has quickened even as you have heard it, continues in your ears, the blurry world and the real world overlapping.
This could be serious.

The effect is better than I expected.
I feel sorry for Mori though so I will apologize to Mori by thinking it to myself.
Time to create a new skill that I have been keeping in case something like this happens.
I am thinking of using this skill right before the birth but I guess this is a good time to use it.
I have to regulate both minds to stabilize it so at least full control of body is possible.
Then I have to create at least 3 personality.
The first personality is for original me which is 'Maxx'.
The second personality is for the baby that holds no memory except the sensation that a baby should have or 'baby' for short. (I will rename it later.)
The third personality is for Theian Orlina Lelach or 'Mori'.
Mori personality will control Mori's body.
Baby personality will control baby's body.
Maxx personality will be subconscious mind of baby (and Mori if I can manage so this will become some sort of bridge or mind network).
Maxx personality will meld with the baby personality accordingly.
I will tell Mori (by telling myself by thinking) that Mori is pregnant using subtle method (or words) if she is not aware of it yet.
I will also tell Mori that the memory of my past life is an event of rebirth of her baby and should be kept secret from others and even from the baby until the baby reach adulthood.
If she wanted to address me, she can address me as what she wanted to address her baby as but if she insists on a name then she can call me 'Maxx'.
It may be even better if Mori can forget the detail of the memory to conserve the balance of nature but I would not force her to forget.
I will try to learn what she have learn all her life such as language, cooking, common knowledge and other survival skill so that I can pass this information to the baby when the time has come.
I will also give any info to Mori to make her chance of survival higher if I know anything about the environment.
I will also ask her what exactly is the her race if it is not human.
(Is it elven by any chance?)
I will also ask her about the King.
I will also ask her what is used to go into that tree. (Magic perhaps?)
By the way, how did the word 'Mori' came from Theian Orlina Lelach?
(I would prefer she be called Lina or Lela but lets hear the reason for Mori.)
I will also talk about anything that came across my mind.
This conversation might lower the confusion for both of us.
By relaxing my thought, the control would probably go to Mori so she could control her body easier.
I would even try to match my movement with Mori if relaxing my thought have little effect to better control Mori's body.
Now is probably a good time to meet Morani and others and have a talk.
I will suggest this to Mori.
I might also try mind reading when I see Morani and others or at least get their mind frequency.
I will try to remember how to do this mind sync effect for future reference.
The result of regulating mind, creating personality, conversation with Mori/self (which includes the Mori name origin), meeting others, mind reading (or just getting mind frequency if possible) of Morani and others, and how long this mind sync effect will last will be noted.
