Who is this imaginary character Erin?

Conversations and characters are mostly made up of stuff of what you've read and saw already. Pay close attention. I usually in my lucid dreams can spot that. Brain creates stuff based on things I observed.
Did you notice when kids start dreaming and what they dream of? They start dreaming when they are old enough to have input about this real world to make stuff up in dream. I am wondering what blind person that have never seen anything dreams about?
You are taking the subjective thing too far and you alone are not convinced in validity of your claims, otherwise we would not have this conversation at all
