Description             : Single-player Quake 1 map - "The Dreamer's Demesne" (ad_mfk_dreamdem.bsp) 
			  utilizing the Arcane Dimensions 1.8.1 mod devkit.

Story             	: "You awaken to the whistling of a chill wind and the sight of dunes illuminated by moonlight.  Through the
			   crackling of nearby torches, you hear a shrill, otherworldly cry in the distance behind you.  This is the
			   demesne of the Dreamer, where nightmares beyond measure creep through sleepless, azure halls."  
			  			  
Map features		: - Atmospheric desert complex bathed in moonlight
                          - Utilizes the diverse enemy varieties and skins included in Arcane Dimensions  
                          - Incorporates a complete weapon set, 5 secrets, and ~70+ monsters (on hard/nightmare difficulty) 
			  - Playtime of approximately 15 min, depending on difficulty level and degree of exploration
			  - Custom water sounds, music (appropriately from Nine Inch Nails), skybox, and textures (both personally modified and borrowed from credited artists)

			  NOTE: Map requires a source port that supports bsp2 format (increased limits). Tested on 
			  Quakespasm and QSS.
