Bird Boy

Date: 5/19/2019

Fair warning I binged watched a play through of the game A Plague Tale: Innocence. If you don’t know, it’s about a girl and her younger brother surviving the Black Death with rats similar to the Scarabs in The Mummy (Flesh eating) (also has the Hundred Year War) Anyways, in the dream I worked with this strange guy (he had one of those curly mustaches and a top hat). The shop(?) he owner was like a curiosity shop filled with flowers, skulls, insects in jars and body parts. I did something to upset him. He was a very ill-tempered man. In order to redeem myself, I had to bring back this very rare and special bird. I had to find it before it grew and pluck its feathers then give the baby bird to the guy (who was going to kill it) while searching in a forest I found what I was looking for. There were bloody feathers around and inside the bush was a fleshly sack. I ripped it off the bush and saw it was the bird. After waiting till sunset the bird began to hatch. As it hatched feathers accumulated on its bare skin, I didn’t pull them out. I watched as the baby bird grew and grew and then became a human boy. I decided to forgo working with that guy and raise this boy. But I needed something from his shop, however anytime I tried to go back in I was attacked by a swarm of green colored scarab beetles. I used bees to help distract them, got what I came for and left. Next few scenes played out like a montage. I watched from outside my body as I and the boy traveled. We went to many places and while I aged the boy never changed. Eventually at the end, I was very old. The boy was still a boy, and we were in a massive library. Then, I woke up.
