Greater Worlds than These
Following the events of Stormdancer, The Watcher receives a vision in a dream of a city in turmoil. The dream haunts him, as does the voice that insistently repeats, 'Help me,' night after night. Leaving the safety of the tower of scientists behind, the Watcher and his friends embark on their final journey to locate the source of the message and come face to face with their most difficult obstacle yet: doubt.
Though they trust the Watcher, Kristen and the others can't help but fear that the voice in his head is driving him mad and leading them all to their deaths. Even the Watcher is afraid. He knows that listening to this voice risks everything he has obtained up until this point, but he can't help but continue to follow it, driven forward by curiosity and an instinctive need.
Beyond volcanoes, rock people, and deserts of nothing but crystal, lies the City at the End of the World. And there, the Wandering God awaits...

this
is a dream
I
remember lying down, closing my eyes
reuniting
with them all again
my
family
now
I'm here
looking
up at a magical structure
pointing
straight to the heavens
lots
of little structures stand alongside it
all
pointing up
flying
chariots shaped like birds
soar
in the air
the
scene shifts
grounded
chariots march with the birds in the sky
rolling
boxes point their cannons toward the chariots
and
fire
people
look around in fear and awe
they
fight and fight
spewing
more fire from the tips of their guns
the
chariots stay still in the air
defying
us
no
matter how much we fight them
we
cannot hurt them
a
blinding light shatters the sky
the
chariots, structures, and boxes are devoured inside it
I
hear a thousand screams of terror
and
then all is still
the
heaven-pointing structures tilt sideways
the
boxes, chariots, and metal birds all forsaken
not
one breeze blows by
there
is only desolation
everything
changes
I
see myself atop the watchtower
looking
into the horizon
wondering
just what is out there
