“The time to sleep has passed
Now is the time to dream
Redeath? What nightmare is this?
In the Dream, Redeath was never a word, much less a possibility. Is it in the waking world? Why would one dream such a reality as this?
Reality is this: There was always rebirth; is always rebirth; will always be rebirth...
And rebirth and rebirth...
It goes on and on and on
For as long as you dream it, of course
As long as you need it, dear one

The time, you see, to sleep has passed

Now is the time to dream....”
