Reassuring smiles were offered to the Dreamer as they ascended. Secretly she was relieved to see the glowing dim. Now, if she could get them to keep it up, they might have a chance to slip out unnoticed. But she understood that wasn’t how life worked, something was going to spook them, though maybe she could manipulate the Dream to help.

As they reach Sonnie, “She is with me, and is here to help as well. I trust her with my life, and you can trust her as well.” Maybe they would, or maybe they wouldn’t. “How’s he doing? Still holding the fog at bay?” part of her wanted to leave the Dreamer with Sonnie and go help, but she wasn’t sure if the Dreamer would trust Sonnie yet.
