The Dream-Walker

The second to arrive was a young man from a world built entirely on the logic of dreams. He was a ‘Dream-Walker,’ able to navigate the shifting, illogical landscapes of his home with a grace and an intuition that was baffling to outsiders. He didn’t translate words or sounds, but emotions, the raw, unfiltered feelings that underpinned every story. He could taste the bitterness of a tragic ending, feel the warmth of a character’s love, see the jagged edges of a story’s fear. He was a cartographer of the heart, and his arrival added a new and vital dimension to the nascent guild.
