    Summary

    Sleep brings an omega to the house one evening, frail and blood-spattered with wide blue eyes.

    III tumbles down the porch steps, lets Sleep curl happily around his shoulders, and pumps out calming pheromones toward the shivering man.

    The man jolts back as III comes closer, and III croons at him lowly, and tells him he’s safe here.

    The man watches him fearfully.

    “We weren’t expecting you,” III says. “Sorry, so sorry.”

    Summary

    In the year 288 A.H., a young scholar from Baghdad travels to the twilit city of Harran, a holdout of paganism where cultists give offerings of blood to the god of the night sky. He has come to study the art of astrology under the star-worshippers of the city, but finds himself entangled in an occult web which threatens his life, his faith, and his soul.

    This is the first entry in my planned series, Dreams of Distant Ages, in which I imagine how the god Sleep manifested in different civilizations throughout history.
