Life comes in labels. Not just the people you see around you, the creatures and the plants in the forests you take for granted, but also in the thoughts you have in your head. You don't classify them because they never leave your head. But some people classify them. The Real thoughts, they are based in reality, the closest you get to true. The Surreal are like the Real, only altered, made vague and twisted. The Unreal are straight from imagination, imagined realities.

Strength in Letters
Every demon from the Unreal has a name, and they all follow the same structure. Ald'dra-saarden, a most-famous daemonic entity, is a good example; Ald' refers to an item of importance in the creatures Real life, before its Unreal rebirth, in this case, a Dagger. Dra- refers to the emotion most often connected with the creature, here it's Rage. Finally, Saarden is the name it takes upon its birth into the Unreal to distinguish itself. Ald'dra-saarden takes the given name (in the Real) of Saarden, the Dagger of Rage.
