Dreams and Nightmares
3. Nightmare I
Before Sorincha got her mask and her dreams, there had only been nightmares for her…and for every other child who saw Tokyo out their window, and stayed away from it. It was the whisper that went with every scolding, the horror that came with every dark night they lived through: the city that devoured children to stay so painfully bright.
It was like a horror house that frightened the good of them and made curious the bad. Or a concept of one, because when she finally entered that city and passed the nightmare it became a dream…that she'd never leave.
