This spell is a part of the Psy Dagger spell chain and is found in the Psy Dagger rune stone.
Dream does not require an invitation. This is something the mentimancer learns - that Dream, at its most assertive, does not wait to be welcomed into a mind. It simply arrives. And arriving uninvited into a waking mind with the full unfiltered intensity of deep sleep is not a gentle experience.
Dream's Assault is Dream unleashed simultaneously across the entire battlefield. For allies and the mentimancer it arrives as it should - as clarity, as heightened awareness, as the lucid dreamer's calm certainty that they understand what is happening around them. Their Perceive and Insight are bolstered by the mentimancer's Arcana as Dream sharpens everything it touches. For enemies it arrives the same way - with the same sudden overwhelming force - except a waking mind receiving Dream without preparation cannot process it. The sensation is of something vast and loud and sourceless detonating just behind the eyes. No pain. No nightmare. Just Dream, enormous and immediate and completely inescapable, leaving every enemy Dazed for 1d6 rounds and their Soul depleted by the caster's Runic Power as the mind strains under the weight of something it was never meant to contain while conscious. Dream did not mean to hurt them. It simply forgot to be small.
