I died. Or rather, I was dead. I was in the underworld, heaven or hell, I don't know. I believe my family was with me as well, but I'm not sure. There was a large group of people, going up a rather wide set of stairs. There was a large pile of things off to one side of the room, beside the stairs. People were standing on it, looking through it. It was a pile of things lost. Toys, appliances, jewelry, tools, everything one could lose. I approached the pile, and made my way up it, glancing around to see if I could find anything from my past. I wasn't looking for anything specific, I was just looking for fun. Then I noticed something up ahead; there, settled in the middle of a small dent in the stuff, with a beam of light hitting it, was a tiny golden dragon toy that I had lost long ago. I picked it up, it seemed to radiate heat, yet it was cool to the touch. I walked back down the pile, pocketing it as I did so, satisfied with my find. I walked back to my family, they were each holding something as well. I remember passing one person who was holding a sink. My family asked me what I had got, so I showed them. They were all disappointed, and offered to help me look for something else, but I told them it was fine. They didn't understand the importance of it, and maybe I didn't either, but I knew that I needed to keep it. We joined the masses and walked up the stairs, towards our new life-or rather, death-and a new world.
