“There’s a dream I keep having,“ Sheridan whispered into the telephone. “The dream has always been the same—until tonight.”
“And what happened tonight?” asked Lil’ John.
Sheridan hesitated, his words stumbling out in tentative phrases: “The man in my dream . . . he spoke to me for the first time . . . he told me of a sacred gift that had been lost . . . a gift that could save the world.”
“Your dream,” John urged gently. “Is the gods conspiring to give you freedom, just like the elders sang that night in the Sundance ceremony:”
When worlds collide
There sounds a tolling
A call to rise
And seize the moment
The gods conspire
To give us freedom
When worlds collide
The journey has begun

“Your search for the sacred gift has already begun . . .”
