When she stops coming back home he goes through the well and rescues her and brings her home.

He runs through forests, swims across rivers, fights his way past demons and soars, on great, borrowed wings, across the sky, and she is in his arms, both of them laughing and screaming from the rush of the victory, the end of the quest, the end of the nightmare, the way home.

In those fevered moments after he wakes he does not know if it is he, or his long gone sister, who is farthest from what he used to call Reality.
