    Summary

    After the disastrous 1889 meeting, Hob Gadling turned to the occult to find a way to contact his stranger and apologize. Yet despite becoming a fairly adept occultist in the process, Hob ultimately lost his nerve and never cast a single spell to contact Dream.

    Unfortunately, that was not the end of the matter, when Hob's dabbling brought him to the attention of Roderick Burgess, who is now convinced that Hob is a fellow Magus, capable of convincing Dream to give Burgess the gift he gave to Hob all those centuries ago: immortality.

    Now, Hob must use wits, magic, and a great deal of charm to convince Roderick Burgess he is indeed an ancient, powerful Magus who wants nothing more than to help Burgess become immortal too, if he is to get himself and Dream out of Fawney Rig.

    Summary

    The first sign is so small, it’s not surprising that he misses it, in hindsight.

    After all, who considers it an ability to simply make other people smile by smiling at them?

    -

    Hob is the anthropomorphic personification of Hope. It takes him an embarrassingly long time to figure it out.

    Summary

    No good can come of an Endless falling for a mortal, or so the story went, but stories are not truth, at least not the whole of it.

    [in which mistakes are made, hearts are broken and old wounds come open, but also, lessons are learnt, hearts are mended and sutures are sown]
