"Who are you?" she asked us

"Who are you?" she asked us. "We have something to do," I said. She laughed up, "Slow down my loves, I can't keep God waiting." My eyes fell on the old woman again and I left. I ran into the church and looked into the large room, there was a woman in a white dress and a demon was just emerging from its human form. Wasn't very appetizing to watch.

"You talk too much," said the demon. I had to laugh and betrayed myself like that. "A dream in the watch world, you don't see that every day either.", said the demon. "Hello, Agilieth." I greeted the demon. "Is Lord Morpheus free again or why are you here Dream?" he asked me as I walked further into the room.

"Guard your tongue demon, this dream has very little self-control," said Morpheus, who was standing at the altar. I clicked my tongue and walked towards him between the demon and the human. "I had a hard time recognizing you without your helmet, Lord Morpheus. Where might your helmet be?" the demon laughed.

"I suppose in hell. He was traded to a demon like you," he replied. He required the princess for the demon's name, however, this woman began a ritual. Morpheus should handle this, I'll watch the show. I whistled: "That's what I call a spectacular show."

Morpheus stepped up to her: "You have no idea what you did." She closed the Bible: "Oh yes, I know that. I made three times as much money with it." "I like her," I said, smiling as I watched the woman leave.

Morpheus and I chatted with Hettie while we waited for Johanna. "When I say Sandman, I mean Sandman," said the old lady. I wrapped my arms around her, "Grandma, I think it's better if you go home now." She grabbed her umbrella: "Yes, you're probably right, my dear Rune. It's good that you're back, don't let her push you around."

Since I didn't feel like all this babble, I walked away a bit. "Are you successful with this scam?" I heard her ask. "NO, HE IS NOT. HE HAS NOT HAD A MATE IN CENTURIES." I called over. Then suddenly something struck me. I went back and there actually sat a raven. "Didn't you say that Jessamy is dead?" I asked while pointing at the raven. Suddenly he snapped at me, so I quickly pulled my finger back: "Stupid fellow animal." "I forbid myself to describe myself as something like that.", he suddenly said. "The fact that he spoke out of the mouth now, but can we finally get this sand now, otherwise he'll never get off my skin again.", I said while pointing to Morpheus. Morpheus walked up to the raven and talked to him, meanwhile Johanna suddenly disappeared.

Morpheus sent the raven named Matthew back to the dream realm, but suddenly he was back. "I'm back," he said, looking up at us. "Even though I told you to stay in the dream realm," he said snippily. "Yes, but the boss lady said that-" he wanted to say, but was interrupted by Morpheus: "Lucien is not your master, she has nothing to command you." That sentence sent a pain in my chest. "So are we dreams just puppets to you?" I asked him quietly, holding back my tears.

"Rune, I didn't mean it like that," he said softly, his face still devoid of any emotion. I laughed out, "Just as Lucien Matthew has nothing to command, you have nothing to command me from now on. Corinthian was right, we are our own masters."

With that, I turned and left. When I was out of his sight I broke down crying.
