A STRANGER DREAM

A fairy tale written and concieved by Motz Workman

In the mystical folds of an enchanted village, where the veil between dreams and reality is as thin as mist, an enigmatic figure known only as the Stranger embarks on a journey shrouded in mystery and steeped in the echoes of forgotten folklore. Clad in a cloak woven from shadows and secrets, the Stranger, a figure both out of time and deeply etched by it, seeks to unravel the amnesia that veils his mind.

​

As the Stranger delves deeper into the village's tapestry of dreams and waking life, he encounters characters as enigmatic and complex as the world they inhabit. The Sandman, a guardian of nocturnal mysteries; the Dreamweaver, a weaver of fates and fantasies; and the Anima, an embodiment of the Stranger's forgotten self. Each encounter is a piece of the puzzle, revealing fragments of the Stranger’s lost identity and the village’s hidden truths.

​

But this is no ordinary village. Here, dreams are not mere figments but portals to inner truths and echoes of an ancient curse. The Stranger's quest for self-discovery becomes a journey of redemption, where the lines between hero and villain blur, and the journey inward reveals more than the path outward.
