About This Story

Everyone in the city dreams except Elias Vale. For seventeen years, his nights have been empty — no nightmares, no fantasies, no strange worlds waiting behind closed eyes. Then the dreams across the city begin disappearing. People wake with hollow grief in their chests, unable to remember the beautiful things they once saw in sleep. Some forget songs. Others forget faces. A few forget how to feel anything at all.

Everyone in the city dreams except Elias Vale.

For seventeen years, his nights have been empty — no nightmares, no fantasies, no strange worlds waiting behind closed eyes.

Then the dreams across the city begin disappearing.

People wake with hollow grief in their chests, unable to remember the beautiful things they once saw in sleep. Some forget songs. Others forget faces. A few forget how to feel anything at all.

The night Elias follows a trail of silver paper moths beneath the city streets, he discovers a hidden library where dreams are kept like books.

And one of them has his name on it.

Now Elias is trapped inside a dangerous world of stolen dreams, whispering shelves, forbidden magic, and a girl who seems to remember him from somewhere impossible.

Because some dreams are meant to be forgotten.

And some were never supposed to wake up.
