I first got the inspiration for this story when I was 12 years old.  At that point, I absolutely loved fictional book about adventure, magic, dragons, and even a little romance.  I used to imagine all of my favorite characters all in one place, with my most favorite being Eragon Shadeslayer from the Inheritance cycle.  Pretty soon, my head was crowded with characters.  However, at 12 years old, I had a very vivid dream.  In that dream, I saw a room that I had never seen before with extraordinary detail. In that room were 13 other figures.  I knew they were all friends, and I knew what to call every one of them.  Some of the faces I recognized, but there were other extremely detailed faces that I had never seen before.  That was when I was 12, and I am now 18.  Just last year, I met that last of the faces from my dream.  They are all in this story, both their real names, and their character names.  A story that I have been building, changing, and rewriting since I was 12. I really hope that this story is as good as I dreamed it would be, literally.
