  Summary

  When the boundaries between dream and reality are mysteriously shattered, and Reala is forcibly sent to the waking world with NiGHTS, he desperately wants a way to return back home to his Master Wizeman before he becomes enraged. NiGHTS, however, views this predicament as an opportunity to rebuild their broken bond with their sibling, and show him that he is allowed to be the master of his own life.
