What a great story Erin and an absolutely lovely concept. Although I'm curious as to why you were ranked No. 10 and managed to fight your way to the top in place of all the rest
One thought; as I was reading the post I got the impression that the spirits in your dream were more conscious beings rather then creations of your own mind. In other words this didn't read like a lucid dream, it read more like an astral projection. That's interesting. Perhaps there's more behind the experience you had then the realisation of love's unstoppable power.
