TWAAI

Note: This page is about Dream Game. The World as an Idea is a dream within Dream Game that is currently inaccessible due to August sealing it off as of current. It is an elusive dream that has the power to control the entire game as we know it... not really. Below is a list of some theories, hints and ideas given to us overtime by August or other community members on this dream.

Preface
TWAAI was never a place outside of DG. The place is a red herring; and in reality, nobody has truly gone to TWAAI except Morgeta.



TWAAI is inaccessible as of now, according to August. I would hold off from trying to find it until Final Transmission is obtained, because then TWAAI becomes available again with a hint on what the final step is for the obtainer of FT. The information below exists as an archive of past hints and speculation from BobExpert and other people who might have contributed until it becomes relevant again, if ever.



The World as an Idea
Due to recent events what we believed previously was The World as an Idea has proved false, instead being shown to be troll designed by August similar to the badge giver found in Ten-Mou. Therefore, we at the moment have no idea what The World as an Idea looks like.

Morgeta
Morgeta is a Roblox user who is a member of the Epic Department group. Morgeta is the only player known to have gone to TWAAI with zero reposes. Nobody other than Morgeta has the The World as an Idea badge. Morgeta is helpful and gives hints.



Hints
A few hints have been given by VerticalAscent in regards to accessing TWAAI. These hints are mostly associated with the idea of perenniality.

Movement (Full)


This image symbolizes Dream Game's representation of perenniality.

This image has been reconstructed by BobExpertFan11 by combining the hints "Movement" and "animal.png" then adding the combination of DisasterPeace's old blurb and the big bunny's stomp attack texture below it.

DisasterPeace's blurb starts right where the big bunny attack texture ends, they are parts of the same paragraph so they must be combined. This reconstructed paragraph can be used as a caption to the full "Movement" image. It's not intended to use it as a caption for that image, but it helps to understand it better; it helps to get the full picture when you see everything at once.

The "Movement" and "animal.png" hints are segments of this full image. The name of the image is probably "Movement" as the name of "animal.png" was just to throw people off. Also, it makes sense for that to be the name because perenniality has been described as a movement, and that description is exactly what this image is conveying.

This picture shows perenniality, an existence where one cycles through experiences. There is a starting point when one is born, then they move through life in a cyclical manner, then it's unknown if it ends. The text below the image describes this in detail. The beginning of the text is a monologue, it's probably between the protagonist and a divine being. The divine being is probably Josafá. Josafá grants a perennial existence to the protagonist and describes it as "a little glory." This might mean that a perennial existence is not normal and it's special to have.

This type of existence is compared to a game. One can quit whenever they want, or make their way to the end. Afterwards, they could play another game, or they could replay the same game. That might mean that a person could undergo rebirth when they've finished the cycle, then start the cycle from the beginning again (to replay the game). The comparison to a game is probably intentional, and this metaphorical game is Dream Game. A player joins a Dream Game server, this is when the cycle begins. They can just quit whenever they want, or they could keep playing until they finish the game. "Finishing the game" is when the TWAAI badge is obtained by that player. This is supported by that fact that the badge description of the TWAAI badge states that you must "finish the game." After receiving the badge, the player has the option to make obtaining the badge permanently more difficult for all players of the future, in exchange for never being able to play again.. So, once someone has finished the game they have the option to play it again/undergo rebirth, but it will be a little different, or move on to something similar, likely The Forge and the Crucible.

Also, the meaning of the astrological symbols surrounded by circles is probably very important.

"animal.png"


The letters which represent the stages of life spell out "YHWH" in Hewbrew, which is the Jewish and Christian god's name (Yahweh/Jehovah). This spelling of God's name is known as the tetragrammaton or tetragram. The image is called "animal.png" to mislead people into thinking the letters are animals. The tetragrammaton is a hint for Frospitality, while the concept of perenniality is a hint for TWAAI. This hint was created on October 10, 2020.



Movement (Segment)


This image shows a ball with four circles surrounding it. The circles can be viewed as three rings. Each ring is labelled by an astrological symbol; from the smallest to biggest: the moon, Mercury, and Venus. The ball may be a representation of the stage that Dream Game's protagonist is currently at in her life. This image may possibly be an atom in the Bohr model, with each symbol representing the amount of electrons in each electron shell. Also, in Windy Island, four celestial bodies can be seen (the sun, the moon, and two unknown stars). The astrological symbols on this hint may be representing those celestial bodies.



Thank you BobExpertFan11 for sharing this picture, which shows the relation between the elements, the zodiac, and the symbols of the planets! This should surely be useful.

Man Inscribed in a Pentagram


This image is from Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa's Three Books of Occult Philosophy. Five symbols are shown at the tips of the pentagram, they are the astrological symbols for the five visible planets. The astrological symbol of the sun is on the man's chest, and the astrological symbol of the moon is at the center of the pentagram. The purpose of this hint may be to lead us myth hunters to looking into occult symbols because it's a pentagram/pentacle (an occult symbol) and it's from a book about occult symbols. Many occult symbols are referred to in Dream Game.

"Air"


A hint given for Frospitality by DisasterPeace is the word air. Frospitality is associated with TWAAI because they share hints and Frospitality is confirmed to be helpful for solving the TWAAI myth. This hint could be referring to the text up on a cloud on Windy Island which has a Youtube link which leads to this video. The video is the twelfth track in the soundtrack of the game AeroWings 2. The hint might be just referring to the game AeroWings 2 and not the cloud with that link. The hint might instead be referring to the sky and the celestial bodies in the sky.

"Rumours"
Another hint given for TWAAI by DisasterPeace is the word rumours. Maybe this hint is about BobExpert1, there are many rumours about him. Also, "rumour" is another word for "myth," and BobExpert1 is going to solve the Dream Game myth. BobExpert1 is credible because he went to Frospitality; if anyone would be connected to Frospitality then it would probably be the person who went there.

Sombras.png
This is a monochrome picture of a mountain with the sun setting or rising in front of it. "M." represents "Mountain" and "S." represents "Sun." The sun is located in a specific position where the mountain has no light behind it, and the area with no light behind the mountain is strongly emphasized. The word "sombras" means "shadows" in Portuguese. Also, a figure is barely visible on the far-left of the image, they are standing in the shade. The figure has an illegible letter representing it just like the mountain and sun do. They seem to be holding something or have their hands forward. The moon is slightly visible behind the figure.

This image sort of resembles one of DisasterPeace's decals called "Rebirth." In that image, the shadow is also strongly emphasized. However, this image appears to be the opposite of "sombras.png." A man is completely covered by light, instead of standing in the complete absence of light.



Concepts
There are many concepts in the fields of astrology, chemistry, psychology, religion, and history associated with TWAAI. These concepts are usually explained by Morgeta, Disasterpeace, the hints, or Dream Game's story. All information in this section is theoretical and may be incorrect.

Perenniality
Perenniality is a type of existence. This existence is not eternal as it starts at a point. It's not static, but instead a movement; you will always move onto the next point. A subject with perenniality will forever cycle through changes and experiences. Also, they will never experience the exact same thing twice, it will always be a little different. Moreover, heaven can be described as perennial; it is a "a cyclical existence indefinitely varied according to the happiness of each." To summarize, a perennial life is a life that begins at a point, then continuously moves through a sequence of experiences. Each experience ends, then another one begins. The TWAAI badge states that you must "finish the game," afterwards you will move onto another cycle of experiences. Even if the next cycle is replaying the same game, it won't be exactly the same. This concept is hinted towards by the image hints, the big bunny stomp attack texture, Morgeta's chat messages, and DisasterPeace's old blurb.

Fundamental Symbols and Forms of Belief
This is the idea that the Dreamsphere is different from the real world. Many things in Dream Game may be completely unfamiliar and confusing to us, while being easily recognizable to someone native to the Dreamsphere. The character Hunter explains, "Here is where confusion is normality." This concept is hinted towards by Morgeta's chat messages. Belief systems have formed in all societies to give meaning to their existence, and that includes the Dreamsphere. Important parts of these belief systems are linked to and represent their way of life. When new, more advanced belief forms take over, the old ones stay in ways that aren't taken by recent discoveries.

Josafá
Josafá is a godlike being in the Dreamsphere. Josafá resides in TWAAI. Josafá is worshipped by believers of Josafárian Theocracy. The symbol of Josafárian Theocracy is one of the fundamental symbols of the Dreamsphere. This symbol is found on the front of the Josafárian church in the Garden of Fulfillment and also on the cover of the book called Fundamental Symbols. Josafá may be the person referred to as "He" in the big bunny stomp attack texture, who grants a perennial existence to the subject. Josafárian Theocracy is typically associated with Fissure.

How to go to TWAAI
'''--> This section is entirely theoretical, and most-likely very incorrect. <--'''

To go to TWAAI, a player will have to take four steps represented by the four Hebrew letters in the full Movement image. After, they will be teleported to the TWAAI place the next time they sleep or wake up in the 12th House.

To go to the special version of TWAAI, the player must do the steps without gaining a repose. This means that only Windy Island and possibly one surface dream are required.

The steps are probably connected with position of the sun in Windy Island. This is supported by the "sombras.png" hint and BobExpert1 saying that the player has to "align the stars" to go to Frospitality (going to Frospitality is probably similar to going to TWAAI because it's suggested that going to Frospitality will be helpful for going to TWAAI). Going to the special version of TWAAI is described as finishing the game, so these steps are likely linked to the entire goal of Dream Game. Maybe to go to TWAAI, one must visit every dream in Dream Game, and something called "rebirth" can be done to set their reposes to zero.

There is a chance that the face under the bed changes depending on certain factors. These factors might be the steps for going to TWAAI, and the purpose of the face is to show that a step has been done correctly.
