Sir Differel and Lady Margaret, aka "Dribble & Maggot", need a vacation in the worst way, so Differel decides to introduce her frenemy to the Land of the Dreams of Men, in the hope that she will grow to love it and give her another adventuring companion. Margaret just wants to relax; too bad she won't get her wish. This is a short story, with a Preface, a Bonus Story, and Sample Excerpts.After ten Waking-years of sojourning to the Land of the Dreams of Men every night -- the equivalent of over 600 Dream-years -- Sir Differel Van Helsing has become a veteran Dreamer and a formidable force. Though she frequently adventures solo, between Team Girl, her Dream-husband Victor, and their mutual friends she has no dearth of traveling companions in case she wants one. However, she regrets that her frenemy, Lady Margaret Rose Chesham, never learned to Dream.So when an opportunity arises for her to introduce "Maggot" to the Dreamlands, "Dribble" jumps at it, and while Margaret is reluctant, she is sufficiently intrigued to give it a try. Differel hopes that Margaret will learn to love the Dreamworld as much as she does, and thereby give her another adventuring companion, but she just wants to relax.Too bad she won't get her wish.In the Bonus Story, two saurian scientists examine two hominids, a man and a woman, and begin to question the nature of what it means to be "human".
