Summary
Long before the world forgot how to listen to trees, the Oracle of Dodona and the Lord of Dreams walked the path between sleep and prophecy. Where they passed, ravens perched in silence, and the oaks whispered secrets only gods could bear.
In the dying light of the fourth century, beneath the shadow of Theodosius, they struck a covenant: at each century’s turn, she would offer him a raven. In return, he would plant an oak in the Dreaming—its roots deep, its branches wide, its purpose sacred.
But Dream is gone.
And the Oracle waits beneath a sky that no longer speaks, listening for wings that do not come. The century turns. The oak remains unplanted. And the silence is beginning to rot.
The tragedy has not yet begun.
But it will.
(a love three thousand years in the making)

Summary
The Dreaming stands, but Dream... Dream is gone.
In the aftermath of the assault on the Dreaming, the Kindly Ones delivered their judgement, their punishment - for spilling blood - and yet, Dream is gone... but not yet returned. Death does not understand why. Endless remain... and yet Dream... is just gone.
Only because the Kindly Ones did not take his life that day. No. It's not much of a punishment if it was what he craved most.
No, instead, they trap him in an unending nightmare - living the moment he killed his son over and over again. Until he breaks, until he begs, until the end of time - Dream doesn't know. He just knows there's no escape. There's no help coming. He's alone.
And every day that he kills his son - just to wash the blood away again and again... He desires for this to end, he would beg for death, he wallows in despair, and he worries he's becoming delirious. The touch of his siblings reside in him, but he accepts they will never come for him. He deserves this. It's his punishment.
His siblings don't care - he tells himself... unaware they don't even know he's alive, and if they did - none of them, not even Desire, would agree.

Being drawn to her light awakened the most insatiable part of him, the overwhelming need to join with her, to pleasure her, to keep her all to himself.
He’d been here before and it did not end well. It became one of his biggest regrets in his eternal existence. Could he possibly let it happen again? He fortified himself, prepared to disappear and leave her and never return…

Summary
Lord Morpheus is gone. He’s among the stars and lost in time. Forever in our memories, living in dreams and stories, in myths and beliefs.
Morpheus opens his eyes. Or so does he believe since his body is no more. He looks in front of him and everything is blank, like a void.
__________________________________________________-Father, I’ve been waiting for you, says Orpheus, a shy smile on his face.
-Is it you ? whispers Morpheus, he doesn't have the energy to raise his voice.
Orpheus seats on the ground or what looks like the ground. For a moment he doesn't move or breathe, he just waits for his father to join him. Which he does after a long minute.
OR
A discussion between a father and a son. Lost in time and space they both heal a little.

Summary
Avery’s laugh is the first thing Morpheus hears on a Monday morning in early September. Just as he wakes, the hyperactive culprit jumps up on the bed and onto his chest, winding him in the process. Turning his head to the side, he notices Hob has already left the bed; likely, he is in the kitchen making breakfast. His heart flutters a little as he realises he was probably left to sleep longer, as he had been in a fair amount of pain last night and had not slept easily.
Set two years on from 'what was before is left behind', Morpheus is still adjusting to human life, Hob Gadling is being stubborn and refuses to give in, Avery is still being a ray of sunshine- but something is still not quite right.
