A MAN FINDS NEW LIFE BUT THE DREAMS LINGER For a long time, all Petinor knew were dreams. At first, these dreams encumbered his mind entirely so that he could not recognize his surroundings nor associate his dreams with reality. Gradually, he did begin to escape his dreams, and the land of Tasmear returned to him. But ten years had past, and his dreams persisted. They hinted at secrets and prophecy, a desperate game of survival, and the whereabouts of a new developing region of Tasmear, for the future lay in his dreams.
