Had an interesting dream last night that was basically a fully formed story: The Landmark Chronicles, a story of a washed up once-rich family gathering back in Landmark city for a reunion, so-named because of the family's claim to fame of Landmark luxury watches
Landmark Watches as a company had been acquired long ago by an unamed multinational, and the family's wealth has been squandered to the point where only Landmark Mansion, taking pride of place in the center of the city, is left.
The matriarch of the household is the only one that still lives there, and for the rest of the family, the memories of the house were best forgotten. I play the narrator, a personal chef that is there as a favour to one of the grandsons of the matriarch.
My job is to ensure that everybody gets fed well throughout the two weeks that everybody is back at the mansion for reasons unknown to me. There is a lot of tension but I have no idea why. In fact, I wasn't aware about the history of Landmark City till I arrived.
The dream stops there, but I genuinely hope it's a recurring series because it seems like it would be pretty fun to see where it goes.
