To this day, he remains a mystery.

In the wake of an ill-received proposal from a suitor, Sesian took notice of the one who had seemed to be within the Red Dragon Inn for days.  Felt, more than seen.  A soft, pricking sensation had slipped along her spine and shoulders.

They met and with likened interest came to know one another through interaction.  His name had been Matthew, but she would later call him 'Dreamer'.  He held the power to walk amongst dreams.  Or, perhaps, even to weave and govern them.

To her heart's ache, he would leave her.  He could not stay upon the mortal planes of existence for too long.  Her Dreamer would leave upon her an impression no other would.  Not even the man she would one day marry, and be widowed by.

To this day, she might be heard on rare occasion, speaking to her Dreamer as if he still stood nearby.  His memory comforts her and to the wind, she speaks to him where Dreams are no longer hers.
