5. Tyler's Dream
For the first time in a long while, Tyler sleeps in the family home in Lienwood alongside his brother Scott. Once settled into bed, Tyler replays what his mother told him. While he is relieved to have finally found his family, he still doesn't understand this story of Lostblood. And Scott's recounting of his return, over dinner, remains even less comprehensible.
But his thoughts grow troubled, and before long, exhaustion from his crossing through Takkanor pulls him into sleep. For the first time as well, a calm and peaceful night awaits him.
