When the Dream Refused the End (ENG)I did not write this to be understood, but to leave behind what I thought when I could no longer tell if I was truly alive or only dreaming of it — When the Dream Refused the End — doesnt ask what a dream is It asks—if truth itself begins to deceive us, what is left for us to believe in? I only wish to hear the voice of someone who still dares to question, even when they already know there is no answer
A young knight named Arthur awakens from three years of slumber in a remote village, after once battling a dragon and being gravely wounded
He remembers nothing of what came before. The villagers revere him as a hero who drove away the beast, yet within him grows a silent doubt
Arthur sets out on a journey to uncover the truth of his past—and of a world he no longer knows to be real or dreamed
Along the way, he meets those bound to the same uncertain fate: a priest, a sorcerer, a jester, a nobleman, a rebel—each reflecting a wound, a belief, and an ideology that clashes with his own
As fragments of memory return, Arthur learns that he was entangled in rebellion and war
The King of the Western Realm—a man with the face of a friend from another world—stands at the heart of that confusion between faith and dominion, between the ideal and the will to rule
Every encounter becomes an echo of one question: Who are we, when even the memories that define us can no longer be trusted?
In the end, the world shatters along with the boundary between dream and truth.
Arthur stands amid the ruins, unable to name himself any longer—
not a hero, not a rebel, not the awakened nor the dreamer,
but merely what remains of someone else’s telling
Across a barren stretch of sand,
a quiet man wandered from land to land without destination.
He clung to nothing—
believed in no prophecy, no god, no chosen one.
One night,
as he passed through a nameless ravine,
he heard the faint, uneven sound of breathing
coming from a cave.
He went down to look.
Inside,
he found a man half-submerged in mud—
a cave that had once been a goblin’s nest.
The man wore armor covered in scratches,
his sword fallen from his hand,
and on his chest,
the fading crest of an old royal house
barely held its form.
The Roamer sat beside him.
He said nothing.
Asked no question.
Only watched in silence
as the knight struggled to stand.
When the knight became aware of him,
he raised his head and asked weakly,
“Do you think I’m a fool?”
The Roamer did not answer at once.
He looked down,
saw his own reflection in the same pool of mud,
and said:
“If you can rise without anyone’s help—
you’re a knight.
But if you already know you cannot rise,
and choose instead to sink with it...
then I’m not sure what you are.”
The knight gave a bitter laugh,
blood seeping from his lips.
“I was once the one everyone believed in—their hope.
Now all I can do is reach out for my sword,
to lift myself from this pit,
and walk toward a war I no longer believe I can win.”
The Roamer asked softly,
“Then why go there at all?”
The knight replied slowly,
yet firmly:
“Because if I stay...
I’ll have no reason to rise again.”
The Roamer fell silent,
then extended his hand.
“Not to pull you out.
Only to stand here—until you decide
whether this is just the mud that holds your legs...
or the mire that will swallow you whole.”
