The dream was about me and like 10 other people trying to kill this big bad guy who's basically impossible to kill like in a video game. The goal, obviously was to kill the guy, but there was a side goal that I kept trying to do. One of the 10 people was the person I loved. She always died one phase 2 of the boss fight, without question. The first phase just to live and blend in so that the boss didn't kill you and the second phase just the fight, but she always died on the second phase. In the 10 people there, there were like 7 people who were like fakes, planted by the boss to pretend to kill him and they just instantly died or did nothing in phase 2 or they turned on me. 8th was the lover and 9th was a guy who helped me but generally just died. The guy turned into like some creepy Eldritch horror or some like horror movies creepy doll but like human sized and bigger. It wasn't a game, but I had to redo the day over and over if I died. So I did like 20 attempts of trying to save my lover and kept dying and dying. I like watched her die like 20 different gruesome deaths. At phase 2 of the boss everything also just became super creepy, like there were additional monsters that were like small broken up dolls that came out and everything. Every time I died, i got a flash back with my lover, it reinforced the idea that I was supposed to save her.
This dream could symbolize feelings of powerlessness, fear, and a sense of being overwhelmed in your waking life. The big bad guy that is impossible to kill may represent challenges or obstacles that seem insurmountable to you. The presence of fake people planted by the boss could symbolize feelings of betrayal or deceit in your life.
The repeated attempts to save your lover, who always dies in the second phase of the boss fight, could suggest a fear of loss or failure in your personal relationships. The gruesome deaths you witness could reflect anxieties about not being able to protect or save someone you care deeply about.
The eerie and creepy atmosphere that intensifies in phase 2 of the boss fight, along with the appearance of additional monsters, may indicate that the challenges you are facing in your life are becoming more complex and threatening.
Overall, this dream may be a reflection of your fears, insecurities, and struggles to overcome difficult situations in your waking life. It could be a signal for you to confront and address these fears, identify sources of support, and find ways to navigate through challenges with resilience and determination.
