Afterward, I began to dream; dream I was something else. A powerful creature of muscles and claws, something powerful and confident and everything I wasn't. I dreamed I was in love with a man I'd barely met. The dream world is a beautiful, wondrous place, but there's a shadow in my dreams... moreLibby the Loser. That's what everyone used to call me behind my back. I wasn't popular, I wasn't strong, I wasn't brave. All that changed after a chance encounter in a Canberra nightclub. Afterward, I began to dream; dream I was something else. A powerful creature of muscles and claws, something powerful and confident and everything I wasn't.

Now my dreams are coming true. My body is changing for real. I'm shedding Libby the Loser like an old skin. I'm growing into something else. But there are others. Others like me, and they don't get along. People are disappearing. People are dying. The shadow is falling over the real world, too, and everything has changed.

To face the rising sun is to have shadows fall behind you. The sun is bright, and my shadow is long. Katelyn won't wake up. Summer has passed and it is winter now in my dreams. Our shared place, our heart, is covered in a thick layer of ice, a barrier the heat of our love cannot warm. Hope exists in the form of an immortal prophet, but leaving my home has risks, too. Prophecy and visions, the living and the dead, the sun and the moon... moreTo face the rising sun is to have shadows fall behind you. The sun is bright, and my shadow is long. Katelyn won't wake up.

My fear, my power, my doubt, my strength, my heart. It's all come down to this. Everything that I am rests in the balance.

I just hope that it's enough... moreMy fear, my power, my doubt, my strength, my heart. It's all come down to this. Everything that I am rests in the balance.
