I had this dream Wednesday before last but have only now finished translating my sleepy scribbling.
Throughout the dream i was struggling with my glasses. I wound up wearing my old pair. They were rain spattered, had the wrong prescription and no longer fit my face. I was also under a curse that caused doppelgangers of me to be made when circumstances were met in conjunction with random people and a mirror. The doubles were somehow both me and the other person. Perhaps they were supposed to be me if i had had the other person's life? Only i wasn't sure who i was in the dream. For a while my doppelgangers and i looked like Tom Welling (which was probably why i/my doppelgangers didn't mind randomly wandering around nude). The dream was set at my old home but instead of apartments and city beyond the embankment to the south there was a lake. We arrived by boat and were met by a strange girl. There was a strong long term connection implied between me and the person i was with. She was alternately my sister or childhood friend though i didn't recognize her. We mucked around with the locals a bit and my double was accused of some recent murders(blame the stranger time). We eventually deduced that the murderer used a bonfire at the shore to lure her victims and rushed there to check it out. A storm was approaching over the water and by the time we reached the shore it was raining. Since this would have interfered with the murderer's plans we moved east along the embankment looking for her next likely spot. Along the way i realized that my companion was the culprit. She set me on fire but i had traded places with a doppelganger. I used the tree house tree which we were near to enhance a spell to purify/incinerate her. The last i remember was the burning but magically undamaged tree and the fiery outline of a crow in the air.
