    Summary

    Hob had first stumbled upon, and then been dragged into this whole esoteric business. The chance of sating both his wanderlust and his loneliness had been to good to pass, and there he'd gone - Faking it until he'd made it. Conning this secret society at leisure, posing as the immortal Count of St. Germain. For once, he didn't have to lie about his age...

    ... And their books let him search for an echo of his Stranger in their lines. He'd keep his distance, he swore. But the loss of the one place he could return to always, the distress of this place being a person-- It had hit him hard.

    ----

    (Or, Hob Gadling learns first hand why you don't impersonate another immortal, the perils of cult mentality, and why calling your Stranger your North Star isn't platonic. Not at all.)

    Summary

    “Dream,” he says carefully, sitting down on the coffee table across from him. It’s new to him still, this name. Pulled from his stranger’s hoarse throat on their way out of the manor. Dream. His poor friend.

    Dream looks up at him. His expression is guarded. Wounded. “I owe you,” he says, in his low, sibilant voice, “a boon.”

    As a reward for his rescue, Dream offers Hob what he's always wanted most. Dream himself.

    Summary

    “I’ll guard you for a night,” Hob says, “and say I please you, you can either pay me for a day’s work, or keep me on ‘til you reach where you’re going.”

    “Do you know the way to Canterbury?” the lord asks, and Hob nods.

    “Oh, yes. It’s a few days’ ride, not more than three or four, by my memory.”

    “Then you shall have three days to please me, Robert Gadling.”

    In 1389, known mercenary and bandit Hob Gadling offers to escort a strange lord to Canterbury, and wagers that he can guess the man's name in three days.

    Summary

    Because you are old, and because you remember the forests that made you, and because stories and blood have seeped into your wood, you dream.

    The White Horse has watched its man come and go and come again. Sometimes he is alone. Sometimes, when he is happiest, there is another man with him.
