This week – SOMBER'S SWEET SPHERE

    Every night, Lily slipped from reality when she dreamed. Worlds of wonder awaited her, vibrant and surreal. Yet the mundane world awaited.

    In one dream, she met a boy named Rylan. They soared over starlit oceans and frolicked with radiant creatures. Lily yearned to bridge her waking world and this enchantment.

    Rylan gave her a pendant. "When you wear it," he said, "dreams will live."

    Reality blurred. Lily awoke atop a gleaming ocean, Rylan by her side.

    "This is real," he smiled.

    Eyes wide, Lily realized the truth—the line between dreams and reality had dissolved forever. She was free.
