I don't think there is much quiet here.

Perhaps not, but what solace may be had would be welcome.

Not much solace either, I'm afraid.

It could just be that I have sensitive hearing, though. You know what they say, when one sense fails, the others work overtime.

It is my experience that those who lose one sense, make a greater effort to see, or hear the world around them.
Perhaps only unconsciously, but truth nonetheless.

Hearing for me, though I will be able to see soon.

Why do you want so much quiet? Are you a writer, or a poet perhaps?

Neither poet, nor writer, but I am rather fond of those who are.

An avid reader, then? Me too.

You may have heard of me, in that case, if you're familiar with the story The Snow Queen.

Yes.

I have, indeed.

I'm Kay. A good few centuries older, though.

((OOC: Don't worry, Kay of Fables isn't 100% consistent with the story anyways. He isn't gonna quiz Morphy on details. ))

Well met.
'Morpheus' is the name most use for me, here.

((OOC: ♥))

Like the Greek God. Interesting. I'm...just Kay. Nothing fancy, I'm afraid. Nice to meet you.

It is an old name, yes.
After a time, it simply became commonplace, as a way to refer to me without involving any of Dream's titles.

...I suppose it is my 'name', now. In a way.

Everyone needs a name.

Who is Dream?

Dream is many things; He is lord of the Dreaming, yet a servant to it.
He is a crystallization of the unconscious, and it's creator.
He presides over all stories, poems, and forgotten lore that ever was.
He is an Endless.

....And, ultimately undefinable on mortal terms.
Perhaps it is best to confine the conception only to 'The King of Dreams'.

Oh, I see. You knew this King of Dreams, then?

Reply

1st_dream_king November 5 2008, 06:24:00 UTC
I was the King of Dreams.

It is a complicated story, but suffice to say I am Dream no longer.
Rather, a memory of what Dream once was.

Or, if you prefer, simply 'Morpheus'.
