Summary
1989. Hob attends son Etranger, qui ne vient pas. Il pourrait renoncer, il pourrait attendre 2089 en faisant semblant que rien ne s'est passé, mais à la place, il prends la plume une fois tous les cent ans pour dire à son Etranger son amour pour l'humanité, pour la vie, et aussi, peut être, si on lit entre les lignes, son amour pour lui.

Summary
Although she hears it constantly, Death knows it's not truly her fault when mortals' time comes to pass. She may help ferry them, but she does not kill them - not truly. She may help with the circumstances, she may help nudge them, but she doesn't murder anyone. Her function was the most natural part of every mortal's life. She took joy in her function.
Which would never change. Shouldn't change.
Except it does. All of it does. Everything comes falling down and apart when it's not Dream that's taken by Roderick but Death. And it's Death who suffers his hospitality, and it's Death who is faced with a choice every week to let a man die or save Randall.
Every day, she's called a murderer. Death is not... she won't... but perhaps for Roderick and company, when she is free, she'll make an exception... and she's certain she'll take quite a bit of joy from it.

Summary
He is-- Dream of the Endless.
Stretched thin, insides bloated full; the borders of the Dreaming harried by angry Furies; his siblings at odds with him.
No matter. He has things to fix.
(Hob Gadling was once nicknamed 'bottomless pit' by his friends. He puts it to the test.)

Summary
Contrary to belief, the Endless did not know all. They were not the most powerful beings in the universe. They existed to serve the world they were born into by Time and Night. Time and Night, who in turn, only existed by a wave of the hand by the Creator - when the universe was born.
What was known was that Lucifer and Michael were fated to fight until the end of days - the war between the silver city and Hell constant and ruthless. However, it was not fought directly by them - but by their cohorts... demons for Lucifer and Nephilims for angels.
Nephilims were feral beings, no better than demons - only marked with grace and wings instead of blackness and horns. Creatures that were vicious and ravenous - feasting on the blood and essence of their enemies.
The Endless did not know everything, but even Dream knew that it was best to never meet a Nephilim without a muzzle... and better yet, it was best to not cross the considered leader of the Nephilim, the only female - Mikayla.
But as said before... the Endless... Dream did not know everything. He did know duty. He did not know her.

Summary
What would happen if Hob Gadling landed on Orpheus’s mysterious island in the year 1800? What would unfold if he befriended that sad, despairing boy who thinks about death but still carries a spark of life within him? What if Hob decided to nurture that spark, returning every five years to show Orpheus that life is truly worth living?
After years of absence and avoiding his son, Dream of the Endless comes to ask Orpheus for help in finding his lost brother. He expects to hear a plea for death – because Orpheus begged for it for millennia. But this time it will be completely different – and it will be the King of Dreams who is shocked.
After all – like father, like son, right?

Summary
“Sister,” Morpheus cut over her, “why are you doing this?”
Death glared at him. “Why?? You seriously have to ask me that? I don’t want to see you scarred, Dream!” she snapped angrily, hurt. “If this goes wrong, you’ll carry the scar of this until the end of this universe! I don’t want that, and setting aside the part where I love you, brother, the very thought of it is abhorrent to me, to my very nature! And I don’t want to see that poor women withered away into little more then a spiritual tumour for you to bare!”
~
Lilly's gaze fixed on his eyes and the stars, the galaxies, the universe in his pupils. When he reached for her she stepped back with a gasp. “What are you?”
“I am everything I have ever told you I am, that my sister told you I am. You just didn’t understand, didn’t appreciate, the scale of what that meant. I have never lied to you, Lilly.”
Her eyes were wide and frightened as she whispered, “Dream...”
~~
When a single mistake creates a cascade of events with only two possible outcomes, either joy, or tragic devastation, all pieces on the board must be brought to bare.
With the Endless, magic, and love, lies just a hair's breadth away from the depths of insanity.

Part two of The art of living (See you in five?)
A year has passed since Orpheus returned to the world – to noise, to strangers, to coffee shops and airports and the overwhelming, beautiful chaos of being alive in a body again. It hasn't been easy. It hasn't been simple. But he isn't doing it alone.
With Dream of the Endless learning what it means to be a father in the present tense, and Hob Gadling, who has loved life stubbornly for six hundred years, showing him that stumbling is not the same as falling, Orpheus is finding his way. One song at a time. One day at a time.
Because surviving was only the beginning. Now comes the harder, stranger, more extraordinary part: the rest of their lives.

Summary
Dream has spent seventy years trapped - unspeaking, near unmoving. He will not capitulate. He will not give in.
But that doesn't change that he can't help but dream too of a day of when he is out, able to return to his realm and function... freedom (in a sense) from this glass prison - though... his function... that overwhelming responsibility...
It doesn't matter... he may never get out... no one is coming... no one will help... he's alone. Even if he dreams of another world where that isn't true. It's fleeting, but he is Dream of the Endless.
And it's all he desires.
**When Roderick decides on using a spell, as a last ditch effort, to get his son back, he doesn't realize the catastrophic outcome of trying to force an entity of fantasy and reality, one with his own hopes and dreams of freedom, to conform - to create a son reborn.
AKA Roderick accidentally turns Dream into a two year old... and everything falls down from there.

Summary
Hob is learning to manipulate his form in the Dreaming. After several spectacular failures involving tentacle fingers and radioactive pink hair, he decides to get creative. Inspired by Dream's effortless shapeshifting, Hob attempts to change his sex. He succeeds. Sort of. From the waist down.
Naturally, he calls his lover over to show off.
Dream looked up then, his gaze travelling the long way up Hob's body to meet his eyes. A strange, almost proud smile touched his lips.
"You did indeed do a good job," Dream said, his voice a low, resonant murmur that vibrated in the quiet space between them. "It is a very pretty cunt."

Summary
Hob runs into his centennial acquaintance feeding birds at the park. Dream is... Dream.
-------
The furrow in Hob’s brow deepened. “You can talk to birds?”
Dream turned and looked at Hob, frowning. “I can speak to all beings that sleep and dream.”
Well, on one hand, that made sense. On the other hand… “But, birds? Pigeons?”
Dream chided him. “Do not be rude, Hob.” He looked between bird and man, and neither was certain which was being spoken to. “Their reasoning is different from yours, but it is still reason.”

Summary
"Primero fue la nada. De ella surgió energía, y el universo despertó. En ese despertar nacieron los primordiales: conciencia sin forma, el cimiento sobre el cual todo sería escrito."
Tras la búsqueda y encuentro con Destrucción, Sueño regresa a su reino con una certeza imposible de eludir: para cumplir su promesa y liberar a su hijo, deberá derramar sangre familiar. Antes de que ese acto sea consumado, las Moiras se presentan en su reino. No para impedirlo, sino para ofrecerle una excepción: un trato antiguo que suspende el castigo a cambio de un equilibrio aún mayor. Una muerte por otra. Guiado por hilos que ni Destino puede ver, Morfeo cruza a la Vigilia, donde el punto de inflexión lo aguarda, el límite entre mundos convergen.
Eve, una ex primordial exiliada y maldita, sobrevive al margen del orden que ayudó a fundar. No sabe que su existencia ha sido señalada como la llave de una deuda imposible, ni que Sueño ha sido enviado para eliminarla antes de que el futuro se fracture.
Pero cuando el deber exige una muerte y el destino introduce una elección real, incluso un Eterno puede equivocarse.
Y ese error es suficiente para alterar el curso de los sueños.
