"Like vast clouds of steam from thermal springs in winter, the years of things unsaid and now unsayable -- admissions, declarations, shames, guilts, fears -- rose around them.  Ennis stood as if heart-shot, face grey and deep-lined, grimacing, eyes screwed shut, fists clenched, legs caving, hit the ground on his knees."  [story]

Nightmares may be products of our subconscious, but dreams are magic windows through which we see our desired reality.

Jack nodded his head when Ennis looked at him and said "Ennis", but Jack wasn't content with just one name.
