The Dreamscribe

Dreamscribe (a.k.a. Lyric of Legend)

In the quiet moments before sleep, when the world is hushed and the stars whisper their secrets, I take solace in the belief that the Dreamscribe is weaving new tales. As I close my eyes, I imagine their luminous quill dancing across the canvas of the cosmos, inscribing stories that will echo through the tapestry of time. In the gentle embrace of dreams, I become a silent character in the grand saga of existence, and the Dreamscribe, our celestial scribe, immortalizes the fleeting moments in the archive of eternity.
