THE MORNING AFTER

A SMALL THING TO KEEP
A LITTLE MORE AMBITION

Six wishes. Many right answers.

The first three commissions introduce feelings, timing and flight. Ivo adds discovery before rest; Elsie asks for wonder while cool and grounded; Nell combines flight, affection, warmth and a certain way home. All six are open to explore.

One star means the wish is fulfilled and every boundary respected. Each of the two visible optional ambitions adds a star. A one-star dream is a successful delivery and earns the full ingredient gift. Extra stars are a personal challenge.

Rehearsal shows this arrangement’s rating. Offer the dream to save it. Your best delivered rating never decreases, and repeat deliveries cannot duplicate gifts. Earlier deliveries are kept as one-star successes, ready to improve.

Choose an ingredient, then an island. Cards show copies left / owned. Move swaps occupied islands; Remove returns an item. Per-dream supplies return for every customer.

Use rehearsal or Step through. Safety, Affection, Wonder and Freedom persist; warmth fades by 1 per step outside its source. Second copies have half positive strength, rounded down. Personal boundaries and optional conditions are stated in each brief.

Inspired by Dream-Pedlary, Thomas Lovell Beddoes (1851), a public-domain poem. Characters and mechanics are new inventions. Your study 02 workbenches and gifts are preserved.
