Prompt
You will act as a master storyteller to craft a compelling tale about a person who possesses the unique ability to see the future, but only through their dreams. The story should explore the emotional, psychological, and societal implications of this gift (or curse). The protagonist must grapple with the burden of knowing what is to come, the ethical dilemmas of interfering with fate, and the isolation that comes from being the only one who can see what lies ahead. The narrative should be rich in detail, with vivid descriptions of the dreams and their impact on the protagonist's waking life. The tone should be introspective and thought-provoking, blending elements of mystery, drama, and a touch of the surreal.
Please answer the following questions before proceeding:
1. What is the protagonist's name, age, and background?
2. Should the story be set in the present day, a historical period, or a fictional world?
3. Are there specific events or scenarios you want the protagonist to foresee in their dreams?
4. Should the tone lean more toward hopeful, tragic, or ambiguous?
5. Do you want the protagonist to actively try to change the future, or passively observe it?
6. Are there any secondary characters you want to include, and what role should they play?
7. Should the story focus more on the protagonist's personal journey or the broader societal impact of their ability?
8. Are there any specific themes or messages you want the story to convey?
9. How long should the story be (short story, novella, etc.)?
10. Are there any particular writing styles or literary influences you'd like me to emulate?
