The Knight of Dreams

It is said that long ago, the lord of nightmares broke the barrier from the dream world into ours, and his army of hellish creatures poured forth onto the land. Perception and reality warped from this intrusion, and all the world’s worst dreams were given embodiment. The stress on reality was too great and the world was beginning to buckle.
There existed a small child, a special child, whose mind was rumored to have uncommon and wondrous powers. This child had subconsciously given life to an imaginary friend that he had dreamed up. This living dream was a powerful warrior and could sense right away the wrongful presence of his evil brethren. He fought the nightmares back through the rift of two realms and sealed it from the outside world; unfortunately this meant that he could never return to the realm of dreams. Saddened by his destiny to forever guard the sealed portal, he sits and waits eternally.

Historical Basis

In recent history, an event occurred where a depiction of the Knight of Dreams reappeared in the material world. In this time, he identified that Erebus, the Knightmare (often referred to as the Lord of Nightmares) had escaped his imprisonment and that the Knight had come to help bring about his defeat once again.

Spread

The tale of the Knight of Dreams is told to children as a story of courage and protection against bad dreams. For how could the nightmares come if the Knight of Dreams was guarding the prison of the Lord of Nightmares?
