The correct answer was, in fact, G: a dream or vision. According to m-w.com its etymology is Middle English, from Old English swefn sleep, dream, vision.
Faldage and rodward both guessed the correct answer, with Faldage picking up one point and rodward getting two.
The bluff with the most votes was the "joint" submittal from tsuwm and Bingley (their guesses were so similar that I only included one). They each get a whopping four points, since one of the votes was tsuwm's red herring. Three people cast a vote for wordcrazy's metallurgical bluff, and the two votes for paulb's seesaw definition balance each other nicely.
Here are the updated scores:
tsuwm......................10+4=14
Sparteye...................11
Bingley.................... 6+4=10
Geoff........................10
wordcrazy.................5+3=8
paulb........................5+2=7
