Dream Log: Down in the Underground

I had this dream while I was out on the fishing trip earlier in the week.
There were two police in old looking military vehicles. They looked to be something out of the 1940s, like half-tracks that had be sold to civilians after the war. They gave chase and I followed to an old excavation into the base of cliff. By the light of the headlights we saw rock things, like round molded bits of clay with primitive faces. They were thrown/hopped up to the edge of the pit and would have killed the officers had they not been knocked back down by the deputy.
Then I descended into the cave/pit. In a muddy water filled cut to one side I found shards of thick ancient pottery that had once been bars of Egyptian magic stones used by early christians to perform "miracles". I knew how powerful even these broken shards could be in the right hands so I stayed to gather them from the cold and dirty water. Even though they threatened to seal me in, I think partially to save the secret.
Because I could not get out I explored this cave/mine place and found huge passageways leading off in three directions. They were blocked by glass sheet walls and glass doors like the ones at expensive department stores. One lead to the afterlife, I could tell this because incised in the rock above it were the words, "All Your Friends". All the doors except the afterlife one were closed and locked to me, and I did not want to go to the afterlife.
I went back to the entrance and found a group of medieval nobles, like recreations that could not know they were just imitations. They were all fighting and scheming over the young princess who would be queen. I claimed to the top of their wooden partitions to try to reach the sealed entrance behind a square carving. But the princess spotted me and after my tooth was broken by an elf noblewoman I joined in the fray. I killed many of them with my sword, often before they could react. I was most upset about my tooth, which rotted and fell out after being broken. I was going to kill all the elves in some ridiculous overwrought vengeance, but I woke up on a foggy morning.
