Summary
Hob saves Dream from his imprisonment but is shot several times in the process. He manages to break the glass ball, but when he wakes up he is in his own bed, bleeding and with no memory of what happened after that. He doesn't know if his friend is alright, doesn't know what happened to him, and he goes a bit crazy with worry.
Eventually, Dream comes back to Hob and, after that, they start to meet more often until they become part of each other's lives. However, this new closeness will be threatened by old mistakes and fighting ancient powers is never easy.
"Only destruction awaits those loved by the Endless."

A young couple found a baby with bright blue eyes and wavy black hair in the capsule and raised him as their own.

Summary
This is the story of how a little girl with no future befriends the embodiment of death and, as an adult, she decides to risk everything to help her friend and free her younger brother. Morpheus, at first, is unmoved and does not trust her motives. Until he gets to know her better and she shows him not all mortals have a hidden agenda. Their legacy is immortalised in a poem. This is the first half of it:
A Dream was captured
not once but twice
The second time found him enraptured
The first time cased his heart in ice
Her life she yielded
The ice did break
Her heart he shielded
His own did wake... -

Summary
The New Inn is as close to a church as Hob can build, a monument to stories, a tribute to dreams. He has a baseball bat, 600 years of fighting experience, and an anthropomorphic representation of dreaming to impress.
In other words, no neonazis allowed.

Hob Gadling plants some poppies, pays his servers overtime, and navigates the complicated maze that is an anthropomorphic representation of dreaming with PTSD.
Takes place after "aulon raid."

In the summer of 1895, Morpheus Sanfin – poet, omega, and disappointment to his wealthy father – flees England on the heels of Oscar Wilde's imprisonment for gross indecency out of fear that he will be condemned for the same unnatural urges.
Seeking a new life in America away from the stifling hand of his father and the expectations of his sex, Morpheus sets out for California with Hob Gadling, a mustang driver who agrees to guide him, not knowing that along the way they will encounter natural wonders, the ghosts of their pasts, and perils that will force Morpheus to reconcile with both his sex and his feelings for his new companion.

Summary
He never did summon her for much more than to attend to his personal pleasures or using her powers, so as to not tire him. She had grown accustomed to it, his coldness, his neglect, accustomed to live as a wife who did not had a husband, as a Queen only in title, not in function – there was very little she could do, even as a goddess.
But after countless centuries bound in a loveless marriage, and a century old imprisonment, Morpheus seems to have reconsidered much of his treatment to Phaethusa, a bride he never courted, merely accepted.
