A novel idea

Can't sleep. Body is behaving weird, but that's fine. It's just had this thrill to write this down, right now. There is a story, actually kind of a recurring dream I have, and I want to write about it - Well, Stephenie Meyer based her entire Twilight series on a dream, so what's the harm :D. 

So, the dream will be the premise of my next book - this time finally a novel, a fantasy story. The setting is so vivid. A story that happens at an immeasurable time, at a place far, far away from Earth, in a very different dimension, not comprehendible by human standard. This dimension does not have pain or struggle or any human miseries, no concept of time as well. It's almost perfect. And that land is ruled by a young and impulsive prince. He is set to be getting married to the princess of the neighbouring planet, who is lovely, but stubborn. Theres is a marriage of convenience. The white elders who oversee the realm decided on the alliance. 

Both have agreed on the alliance as it makes sense. They have never felt love, romantic love, that is. Actually the realm doesn't have that kind of love at all, as the byproduct of it is pain, which the elders didn't want anyone to feel. Wise decision indeed.

The prince hears about love and the planet Earth. For the first time, he fantasizes about the various emotions he could feel on Earth. He wants to bag the entire range of emotions. He asks the elders to permit him to go to Earth. They try to talk him out, he doesn't listen. He is told, it won't be easy and the way back home would be difficult to find too. However, anytime he decides to quit he just need to ask and they will bring him back. The elders then turn towards the princess and tell her that she would also be sent to Earth. 

Princess gets into shock. Why her? She didn't even want to go to Earth. She thought she could have a little vacation without him. She asks the elders, why this injustice. They tell her, "Earth is a 3D place and is basically a lesson in duality. So, you will be the counterpart for the prince there. This will help in accelerating the process too."

Reluctantly they leave their safe sanctuary. Both are born in different parts of the world, without memory of prior lives. 

Will they meet again? Will they learn about love? How many births will that take them? Will they be able to navigate their way through the trash of the world? Will they ever go back to their home? What role the elders play?

That's the story. Fanciful, imaginative, creative. There could be so many stories within the stories, new setups, situations and so many do-overs. And, fun part, I can write in a romantic comedy, with tinge of tragedy in it. That will have my brand of humour. Love it.

How do I explain it? Okay, so there is this under-rated song and it is so awesome. It's something like that.

Let me finish the story book soon and I will write this. I am super excited. 

Should I get back to my doodle art to calm myself? Actually, should try and sleep now, have a crazy day tomorrow.
