dream of jumbled journey

It was really mixed up, but there were many different scenes. I was part of a choreographed adventure where there was some sort of manufactured conflict for the benefit of unseen observers. It was outside in some sort of wooded valley, I think. We had to keep going forward and avoided some sort of enemy.  For some reason, fake guns had something to do with it, but I don’t think we used them. The people  I was with seemed familiar to me. Later on, one of the people I was with accompanied me to a store. It was an exultant moment when I knew that no one was watching or making everything up any longer. I wish I could remember a little more of it.
