Summary
"We had a fight," there's no need to qualify with who, "I pushed where I shouldn't, and he said some things, you know how it goes." She does know.
"So I waited. 1989, the whole night. The next night too; maybe he'd just mixed up the dates. Hardly unexpected, when there are so many of them. He wouldn't've missed it, after all. And then I got to thinking: how long is a twenty year spat to a pair of immortals? Pushed it out of my mind, for a long time." He wouldn't be telling her this unless it was for context, so she stays silent. He takes a breath, steels himself, continues.
"And then I found this."He places a ruby on the table. It's flawless and beautiful and she has dreamed of owning a necklace like this. Everyone has.
It is also thrumming with power. Not to the unattuned eye, perhaps, but the gentle way that Robert handles the gem has only a little to do with sentiment, and far more to do with an instinctive wariness. He's untrained, sure, but he sees. That's better than most can claim."You need me to track him," She says, already rising from the table and rummaging around for the maps she needs.

Summary
"Dream," Calliope whispers, her face drawn with the same shock the Endless feels.
The man's name ricochets off of the modest apartment walls. The singular word threatening in its utterance to tear them all apart.
He watches the moment register on Hob Gadling's face.
"Dream?” the name falls in dreaded repetition from the mortal’s lips, his eyes grow wide with understanding.
"You know each other?"

Summary
The Stranger hesitates, and does something Hob would not have believed possible. He stammers. “I- I do not remember. I came to and was being pursued.”
Hob notices the older man approaching, but is shocked as his voice rings out, addressing them both, “My dear boy, I am so glad we have found you.” He observes the situation warily; the only reaction from his friend is subtle, the smallest recoil.
“Who exactly are you?” Hob asks the man.
“Why, I’m Paul McGuire, and I can’t thank you enough,” the man looks at Hob’s ID badge, “Dr. Gadling, for finding my nephew.”
Hob’s eyes narrow, as he flatly asks, “Your nephew?”
***
Hob’s life is forever changed when his Stranger literally stumbles back into his life, amnestic and hunted, and he must use the skills gathered over an immortal life to evade their pursuers. They soon realize that bits of memory are coming back to Hob’s Stranger, through the power of literature. They are slower, however, to recognize that the most important story to explore may be their own.
A love letter to books, libraries, and the stories that make us, and allow us to change for the better.
