[h3]The Hunter's Dream[/h3]
Torquil simply turned to Farren and asked: “Isn't just 'sanctuary' fine?”

“The Shopkeeper's emotions and reasoning is difficult to describe in human terms,” the doll began answering Ophelia's questions. “They intend to remain here as they are, good Hunter, but their mind no longer works in ways where 'happiness' applies. They want to hunt and aid Paleblood Hunters, so in that respect you have already helped.
As for the rest, I am afraid that we don't know. All of the Shopkeeper's ascendant selves destroyed at least two Great Ones before ascending, and many of them three. Only the death of one Great One caused ascension, not the others. We also do not know those names you mentioned, good Hunter,” she admitted apologetically, “but I suppose neither of us knew the true names of most Great Ones. The one the Shopkeeper slew we knew as the Orphan of Kos, Mergo's Wetnurse and the Moon Presence. The realms of the Orphan and the Wetnurse we assume to be gone or assimilated into other Nightmares, and the realm of the Moon Presence... well.” She made a vague gesture at the ground at their feet.
“Neither of us know enough of how it works to tell you if new realms can be made either,” the doll added hesitantly. “But we can only assume that if realms can merge or disappear, they can also split or be created. But we have no clues as to how this could be done.”
