I dreamt I was on a ship, which was being attacked by an enormous shark. We managed to fight it off, and I killed its young. I painted the deck with some sort of special paint so that nothing could try and crush the ship, which seemed to work. But the shark came back as a man, and said he couldn't be killed, and would always come back. He had to rule. He was like a king in black on a palanquin.

I wasn't scared, but when I woke, I did find it all bizarre. What could it all mean?
