Summary
“Once, a boy looked into the eyes of a caged god and said, ‘If I could set you free, I would.’ And then—he did.”
In an alternate timeline of The Sandman, young Alex Burgess chooses to free Dream of the Endless before World War II begins. With stolen artifacts, whispered magic, and a wound that nearly ends him, Alex sparks a bond that forever alters the Dreaming.
But mercy is never clean, and love—especially from a god who governs dreams—comes wrapped in silence, sacrifice, and cosmic memory. Trapped in a youth that no longer fits, Alex awakens decades later in a world that moved on without him.
And in those very years emerges the one person who is an equal to dream someone in terms of power and status
Something dream could never truly have and yet now he didHe didn't want this and yet he was given what he needed

Summary
Nothing he doesn’t deserve, of course. He just wishes sometimes for something different. It’s too late now, of course. He’s at the end of his life, even in this nightmare state he can feel his heart failing, his lungs struggling. His body is losing its fight, and even if it were not, he’s trapped in eternal terror.
But that’s okay, he’s been afraid all his life. As he feels his heart stutter and stop, his awareness shuddering and blurring at the edges, he wonders if perhaps he’ll finally get to learn what peace feels like.
