“Do you expect even dreams to unravel rationally, Kahl Balduin? Must each event have a precise, empirical cause?”

“No, not if you’re narrating a dream. But if you claim, like the Pledgeson, that your visions and reality are the same thing, then, yes I expect consistency. I’m too old for pointless fairy tales.”
