Spare time in the Arctic is the eleventh dream about Rèfles, and the fourth about Spiro: two fictional characters.

Rèfles is made of repressed emotions that wander in a single direction in the form of black plasma to be gathered in a liquid mass: his body. He has acquired over time his consciousness and lives in a parallel dimension together with other Archetypes. He can communicate with humans only through dreams and art.

Rèfles recently escaped into Spiro’s body to give emotions back to humans. Spiro can easily travel between Planet Earth and Planet Vena, a parallel dimension where there’s no air, no money and no death.

He’s enjoying his new life in the Arctic, far away from distractions, duties and society.
