Summary

„DREAMBOUND: Beyond the Dream’s Threshold – A Prelude to The Clan Chronicles“. She never used to dream. Until one night... When Nora moves to a new town and a new school, everything feels wrong—her classmates are cold, the teachers don’t care, and her only invite is to a party she never wanted to attend. But on the night of that party, something strange happens. She falls asleep… and wakes up in a place that isn’t her world. In the dream realm, Nora is not just a lost girl—she’s a mystery. Armored, silent, and feared, she is seen as a figure of prophecy. A wanderer between dreams and waking life. Guided by cryptic protectors and watched by those who whisper about her past, she must begin to uncover the truth: about the clans that rule this dream-bound land, about the balance between realms, and about her place in a story much bigger than she ever imagined. But back in the real world, nothing is the same either. Strange feelings, strange memories… and a question she can’t shake: What if the dream was more real than she thought? DREAMBOUND: Beyond the Dream’s Threshold is a mysterious, atmospheric introduction to The Clan Chronicles — a series about secrets hidden in dreams, power passed through stories, and the blurry line between fantasy and reality.

PROLOGUE

Prologue

A person spends about a third of their life asleep—on average, that’s 25 years. But no one really thinks about what we’re actually doing all that time. Resting our bodies? Sure. But our minds? And if we are resting, then what are dreams?

I know, most people think they don’t dream. But that’s not true. You dream every 90 minutes, and if you don’t wake up during the dream, you won’t remember it. The ones you do remember are usually nightmares—because those are the ones that wake you up.

A nightmare was the rst dream I ever had.

So… do we really do nothing while we sleep? Our minds keep working, even unconsciously. But is that all? What about the soul? It can’t rest—its time will come only when we fall into the eternal sleep. So where does it go now?

I never really thought about it. But I always knew I was different. How else do you explain the fact that I had never dreamed at all?

And when I nally did… my life changed completely.

I’m no longer just an ordinary girl.

I am a bridge—between dreams and reality.
