Summary
If one looked at the different stories of how the Black City became Golden again, they all contained different elements of the truth, for a given level of mythological belief. But no one would know better than the two people who were closest to the source as they dreamed in the fractured, shattered reflections of red lyrium.
“So we’re in deeper waters now, as it were, being physically present in the Fade?” she asked.

“Well,” she said, thoughtfully, “I think I understand why you were so worried now, about me dreaming. My clan would fish in the Free Marches sometimes, in little coracles on the Waking Sea. Sometimes a squall would come up before everyone could get back to shore. More than once someone was drowned because they tried to save someone else and got pulled down too.”
“Yes,” he affirmed. “Much like that. And the mad dreams of the Titans are much greater than a squall.”
