: Most dreams where you get the supremely satisfied feeling afterwards, I guess, are strong dreams.

Does kicking Kali's ass qualify? ;) Kali being the hindu goddess of death and all that, devouring the world.

: (here it turns nightmarish) he told me to "feel their hate" and asked how it was possible to resist anything like that. Then he SHOWED me ALL the hate that the aliens had - it was like a swirling black ellipsoid, and I could feel the overwhelming hatred. It felt liquid, black, deep, and STRONG. In wonderment and anger, I turned on him and asked, (I remember this part very clearly) "What kind of monster ARE you?". For answer, he drew himself up and suddenly was on the other side of the room from me instead of across the table. His eyes opened as wide as they could, and suddenly started glowing a bright milky white. They did not shine or sparkle, though they were very bright; it was a bright MILKY white, and it was the strongest color I had ever seen in a strong dream up until then. Those eyes were somehow holy, like those I would imagine a crusader full of righteous anger might have.

Your dream sounds wonderful to me. Not as in having it as a nightmare, it may have felt like that but reading it it just sounds great. It actually reminds me of a dream I had, where there was something evil and dark (and STRONG) trapped underneath a black pyramid inside an ordinary pyramid and a labyrintine way inside it. All I'm saying is evil can be fascinating, irresistible, beckoning. The evil in my dream also couldn't be destroyed with the means we had, so all I could do was bury it, make the building collapse, even though it seemed it'd require sacrificing my life at the same time (made it out in time in the end, tho). I remember waking up from the dream (nightmare?) feeling a bit disturbed, knowing the evil still existed and just waited for the right time to surface. No Freudian dream interpretations here about the subconscious etc. ok? Been there, done that already. ;)
