The Dream Realm's origin lies with the Humans. When the Shijin began to see the Dreams that appeared to the Humans while they slept, subconcious mental manifestation of their inner mind workings--what/who they liked, aspirations, fears, things they wish would and would not happen. Dreams took a life of their own, presenting a sort of alternate world or reality, and the Shijin took great lengths to make them real.
The first dreams were molded into four Fae, who still exist in the folds of the dream world. They called themselves Na'ame, Erato, Clio and Thalia. Na'ame was chosen by the Shijin to be the guardian of the Realm and she continues to rule over the Dream Realm to recent times. Also known as the Faerie Queen, she doubles as the Ruling Elemental Spirit of Dream.
The Realm is combined of different settings that have appeared in the Dreams of Humans. Their boundaries fade into one another, and the themes for these dreams functions as towns. The Dream Realm is not broken up into provinces or states. All areas work together as one under the Faerie Queen.
In the Center of the Dream Realm is the city of Exile, the place were Elves Dwell. Exile is the only truly stable area in the Dream Realm, a lush oasis in the middle of very fickle dreams. It is a forest that houses the large town. Exile does not follow the hierarchy of the Dream Realm; the Elves have their own King and Queen, King Auberon and Queen Aurora. It is considered an exceptional vacationing spot even to those who do not possess the power to journey there, simply because the area--outside of attacks from the fae--is peaceful, and there has been no conflict seen in the city since its moment of conception.
