prompt three: dreams and delusions

The fog still lies thick over Mead. In the rest of Ivras, news has spread and been hotly debated—what kind of monster is this? Is it even a monster? It is unlike anything that has been seen before. 

As time passes, the miasma shows no signs of abating, though there has been a steady trickle of people making it out of the mist, some of them gathering outside it.

Interestingly enough, there have also been people who, after having gotten out, immediately try to return into the mist, talking about how their perfect lives await them. Some have been restrained for their own safety, but the mage protectors—and others—gathered outside Mead can’t help everyone. 

Would your character try to keep others from going back into the fog?
