00:00:09You
00:00:30Come to bed.
00:00:32Er, I'll be right there, love.
00:00:35Just putting the kitten in her basket.
00:00:40Leave the door open so she can get to the litter.
00:00:45Good night, Fluffle.
00:01:02It's tonight. Are you coming?
00:01:05Should be amusing, if nothing else.
00:01:07I can't get out.
00:01:09All the wall openings are closed.
00:01:12No, not all of them. Not there.
00:01:15The clear hole is partly opened.
00:01:16You can get out through there.
00:01:35Take your tail, little one. We mustn't miss this.
00:01:57Good jump. You just have to work on the landing.
00:02:00Come on. The night won't wait.
00:02:07What will she be like?
00:02:09Who knows? Not this cat.
00:02:16Well met, fellow night threaders.
00:02:18Hello. We're going to see her.
00:02:21Me too. Although, I can't see much point to it.
00:02:26Then why are you here?
00:02:28Hmm. Curiosity, perhaps?
00:02:34I want to hear what she has to say.
00:02:38So do we all, child. So do we all.
00:03:03Where is she?
00:03:05Where is she?
00:03:06Where is she?
00:03:20Where is she?
00:03:21Sisters, brothers, good hunting.
00:03:24Some of you have traveled far to hear my message today.
00:03:28Left your warm, comfortable places.
00:03:31And I hope, when I have finished, you will all share my dream.
00:03:37I was not always as you see me today.
00:03:44Once, like many of you, I lived in their world.
00:03:48And like you, I fooled myself.
00:03:53Oh, they fed me and gave me comfort.
00:03:56They served me.
00:03:58All they asked in return was my affection.
00:04:01No price at all, really.
00:04:27He was strong and fast.
00:04:30His claws and teeth were sharp as winter.
00:04:35He was my choice of lover.
00:04:38I never saw him again.
00:04:40But I did not forget him.
00:04:43I didn't remember my own mother, but I vowed I would be different.
00:04:47I would teach them how to wash, how to stalk silently, how to hunt.
00:04:53You knew she was in heat.
00:04:56Why didn't you keep her inside?
00:04:58I think they're kind of cute.
00:05:00Cute?
00:05:01She's a purebred registered blue point.
00:05:03He's a half-breed.
00:05:05They're not worth anything.
00:05:16What are you going to do with them?
00:05:18Don't worry.
00:05:19I'll take care of it.
00:05:23Paul!
00:05:49I felt them from afar in the dark as the cold water took them.
00:05:57Felt them thrash and claw sightlessly.
00:06:01Felt them call to me in their fear.
00:06:04And then they were gone.
00:06:14For God's sake, it's not as if she understands.
00:06:18I mean, look at her.
00:06:19She's probably relieved.
00:06:22Who'd want four screaming brats around?
00:06:25You're probably right.
00:06:28I just feel guilty.
00:06:31I knew then that I had lied to myself.
00:06:33That we were subordinate.
00:06:36While we lived with humanity, we could not call ourselves free.
00:06:40And so, I prayed.
00:06:43I prayed to the darkness, to the night.
00:06:46I prayed to the king of cats.
00:06:48He who walks amongst us.
00:06:50And we do not know him.
00:06:51And...
00:06:53I dreamed.
00:06:57I dreamed.
00:07:20I'm good.
00:07:22I'm hungry.
00:07:39I'm hungry.
00:07:40nothing in the mountain there is a cave you'll find him there but the way is hard
00:07:49a little cat could come to much harm if she strays from the path cats walk their own paths
00:08:07i walked through the wood of ghosts where the dead and lost whispered to me
00:08:15i heard my children calling me but i walked forward
00:08:28i walked through the cold places where every step was pain every movement torment
00:08:35i walked through the wetness that numb my paws drenched my fur
00:08:41but still i walked forward
00:08:47i walked through the darkness through the void where everything was sucked from me everything
00:08:53that makes me what i am and even when i no longer knew why i walked forward
00:09:01after a time myself returned to me and i found myself at the mountain
00:09:08i have come to see the cat of dreams
00:09:12why should we let you in why should he be disturbed for one such as you
00:09:20a small mouth full of fair and bone barely a cat
00:09:29i've come too far to be turned away i will state my business to the one i came to see
00:09:33and only to him i am a cat i keep my own counsel
00:09:41enter then proud cat but be warned dreams have a price
00:09:54and i walked on
00:10:15i am here
00:10:17and who are you a cat a walker in the night places a dead crow sent me here for revelation
00:10:28i want to know why could they take my children from me why do we live as we do
00:10:36i don't understand
00:10:45i catch my look at a king or so they say look into my eyes then little sister look into
00:10:51my eyes
00:11:02and in his eyes
00:11:04i saw everything i saw the truth our truth and it transcended anything i had imagined
00:11:13many many seasons ago cats truly ruled this world we were larger than everything made for us
00:11:23humans were tiny creatures no larger than we are now they would groom us feed us
00:11:32humans when the moon shone full we would hunt them
00:11:37for they were more delightful to catch than even birds
00:11:42oh the joy of those days i saw in his eyes the game of cat and man
00:11:51and then one of the humans rose amongst them
00:11:56inspired by a dream he told them
00:11:59dreams shape the world dreams create the world anew every night
00:12:06do not dream the world the way it is now
00:12:09dream of a new world a world where we are no longer hunted no longer prey a world we rule
00:12:17if enough of us dream it it will happen dreams shape the world
00:12:26word spread amongst the humans but for a while nothing happened
00:12:33but then one night enough of them dreamed it wasn't many a thousand perhaps no more
00:12:41they dreamed and the next day things changed
00:12:47we were prey to them to dogs their metal machines we were tiny and they were huge so they changed
00:12:56the
00:12:56world made it like it is now not exactly they dreamed the world so it was always the way it
00:13:03is now
00:13:04there was never a world where cats were in they changed it from beginning of all things to the end
00:13:09of
00:13:10time it was ever thus do you understand now yes yes i do then you know what your task must
00:13:18be
00:13:19the burden you must bear are you strong enough yes i i hope so then wait child with my blessing
00:13:40you see i had seen the soft underbelly of what he had shown me i left that night to spread
00:13:48the good
00:13:49news and now i travel from place to place i have preached to feral cats in empty places shouting my
00:13:58message to the stars i have whispered it to cats in alleyways and wherever i have gone my message is
00:14:07the
00:14:07same dream it if enough of us dream a bare thousand we can dream a world where no cat suffers
00:14:15where no
00:14:16kittens die cold and alone where all cats are queens and kings of creation that is my message
00:14:28and i shall keep moving repeating it until i die or until a thousand cats hear my words and believe
00:14:36them
00:14:36and dream and dream and we come again to paradise
00:14:54mistress
00:14:58i believe
00:15:16well she was amusing at least i'll say that for her do you think it will happen like she said
00:15:23i'd like to see anyone prophet god or king persuade a thousand cats to do anything at the same time
00:15:32the sun will rise soon let's get you home little one
00:15:40oh look she's still asleep
00:15:45i think she's dreaming i wonder what cats dream about the way she's twitching she's probably hunting
00:15:53something oh look at her isn't that cute it is it's really cute
00:16:11you can't force a character to do something just because it's easier for you as a writer
00:16:18character has to come first everything else follows every plot twist every line of dialogue
00:16:32every fraught meaningful silence
00:16:37any questions
00:16:40could you tell us a bit about your process
00:16:44do you have any advice for those of us who are just starting out and finding it difficult to
00:16:49not hate every single thing i write
00:16:55i am sad to report that i've been doing this for a very long time and
00:17:02it doesn't get any easier but try not to be discouraged when it is difficult
00:17:09my debut novel was rejected by seven publishers before it became a bestseller
00:17:18right that's it for today
00:17:21oh don't forget the assignment the same event told from two characters very different points of view
00:17:35did you get it took some doing but
00:17:44it's um it's perfect thank you
00:17:51you're welcome i think it's admirable how far a writer like you will go when it comes to research
00:17:57ah well it's handy to know a soon to be doctor
00:18:02i actually wanted to be a writer but my parents insisted i have something to fall back on
00:18:08i still write when i have time your parents are very wise
00:18:15you're better off i promise
00:18:21uh so what do i owe you nothing stop norah honestly it probably would have been incinerated anyway
00:18:29um just don't tell anyone where you got it i won't i promise and um if you wouldn't mind
00:18:40would you sign this for me
00:18:44of course
00:18:49any idea when the new book is coming out
00:18:54no but you will definitely be in the acknowledgements is it a sequel
00:19:01or something new that would be telling
00:19:35who
00:19:36Who is it?
00:19:37Richard Maddox, to see Erasmus Fry.
00:19:41Robin, straight down.
00:19:51Are you alone?
00:19:53It's just me. I've got it.
00:19:56Well then, come in, dear boy, come in.
00:20:15How are you, Richard?
00:20:18Have you written anything profound and stirring recently?
00:20:24You know I haven't, Mr Fry.
00:20:27No.
00:20:29I haven't written a single word in a year.
00:20:32Nothing I haven't thrown away.
00:20:33Then I suggest you sit down, have a drink, and show me my present.
00:20:38Not necessarily in that order.
00:20:41Yeah.
00:20:56Oh, well done, dear boy.
00:21:00Oh, a genuine trichino berzoa.
00:21:06Do you know about these?
00:21:08They're generally removed from the stomachs of young women who are in the habit of ingesting their own hair.
00:21:17The Rapunzel syndrome, it's called.
00:21:21Bezoa was for once believed to possess mystic powers.
00:21:25They can remedy poison, make the sick well.
00:21:28Edward IV.
00:21:30Edward IV.
00:21:30Edward IV survived the effects of a poisoned wound, due solely to the possession of a bassor.
00:21:37Yes, I see. I'm lecturing again.
00:21:41An old writer with no one to talk to grows fond of the sound of his own voice.
00:21:48But I suppose you'd like your present now.
00:21:56I was twenty-seven visiting Mount Helicon, researching yet another novel I was sure to abandon.
00:22:03This one steeped in Greek mythology, and while I was there, I discovered a trove of ancient texts about the
00:22:11Muses, and how to control them using moly, sorcerer's garlic, and certain lost rituals.
00:22:21The hardest part was getting her back to England.
00:22:47To be continued.
00:22:51She is?
00:22:55What were you with me now, Erasmus?
00:22:58Am I to perform for your amusement?
00:23:02Is this man to be our audience?
00:23:05This is Richard Maddock.
00:23:08He's a novelist, or at least he's written one extremely successful first novel,
00:23:13but now he finds himself quite unable to write anything else.
00:23:18Richard, this is Calliope, the youngest of the nine sisters.
00:23:22She was Homer's muse, so she ought to be good enough for you.
00:23:27Calliope, I'm giving you to Richard.
00:23:30You're his now.
00:23:33But you said that you would free me before you died.
00:23:37Put not your trust in princes, my dear,
00:23:40nor in an aging author who has never been what you might call a shining example
00:23:45when it came to keeping his word.
00:23:50But you promised.
00:23:52Writers are liars, my dear.
00:23:55Surely you've realized that by now.
00:24:03Don't worry, she can't run away.
00:24:05She's bound to you now, just as she was once bound to me.
00:24:10Then why keep her locked away?
00:24:12Because I couldn't bear to look at that pouty, aggrieved little face of hers all day.
00:24:18And neither will you, I assure you.
00:24:22I don't know if I can do this.
00:24:25Of course you can, dear boy.
00:24:38They say one ought to woo her kind.
00:24:42But I must say, I found force most efficacious.
00:24:52Now don't be fooled.
00:24:54She's not human.
00:24:55She's thousands of years old.
00:24:58She was created for this.
00:24:59This is her purpose.
00:25:01To inspire men like us.
00:25:03After all, she gave me fame, glory, novels, poems, plays.
00:25:12You'll see.
00:25:14If that's true, why would you?
00:25:16My time is past.
00:25:19All my best work is out of print.
00:25:21Even muse inspired.
00:25:24Nobody reads Erasmus Fry anymore.
00:25:29Now take the little cow away, Richard.
00:25:31I never want to see either of you again.
00:25:37However, if you ever happen to feel a spark of gratitude, you might persuade your publisher to bring Here Comes
00:25:45a Candle back into print.
00:25:48I was particularly proud of that one.
00:26:32I never want to see you again.
00:26:33I, uh, I just need time to think about what to do.
00:26:41What is there to think about?
00:26:45I'm a goddess.
00:26:47A daughter of Zeus.
00:26:50I am not a possession to be kept and used and traded.
00:26:58You must set me free.
00:27:00You have only to say the words.
00:27:02I will, I promise.
00:27:04But, um, do you think you could help me first?
00:27:15Inspire me?
00:27:17Just for one book and then I will let you go.
00:27:21I swear I will.
00:27:24Writers are liars.
00:27:27Not all of us.
00:27:31Just one book.
00:27:37Please.
00:27:44I choose with whom I share my gifts.
00:27:50Perhaps we both need time to think.
00:28:00iós.
00:28:11A.
00:28:17By the way.
00:28:18Do you want to try to work?
00:28:19Go ahead.
00:28:19Lets keep me going, buddy.
00:28:21It's a entren BY deÄŸildi 2.
00:28:22Yes, I'll have a piece of justice.
00:28:23I want to try it.
00:29:53We can't articulate.
00:29:55Foddle our words.
00:29:57We couldn't pinpoint exactly what it was he did that we felt was so wrong.
00:30:01So yeah, Borgias, you're crazy.
00:30:16You seek to woo me with presents?
00:30:22Is this not how it's done?
00:30:25I think you know how it is done.
00:30:29An artist prays to the muses.
00:30:33He offers vows of service and devotion to the goddesses in exchange for divine inspiration.
00:30:40An artist does not hold a muse against her will.
00:30:44You gave Erasmus Frye what he wanted.
00:30:46I did not.
00:30:49He took it from me.
00:30:57I had returned to Mount Helicon.
00:31:00To the sacred springs.
00:31:03I lay my scroll upon the shore and I went bathing as I had always done.
00:31:11He found it there.
00:31:13He read it.
00:31:15And said...
00:31:16And said...
00:31:19Calliope, you may call me master.
00:31:22And then he burned my scroll, which bound me to him and now to you.
00:31:27Unless you say the words.
00:31:30That I may be as free as you are.
00:31:32You think I'm free?
00:31:38I got the advance for this book two years ago.
00:31:40I haven't even started it yet.
00:31:42I don't even know what it's about.
00:31:48I'm drowning, Calliope.
00:31:56Please.
00:31:58I am begging you.
00:32:03Ask me again.
00:32:05When I am free.
00:32:42You better be fucking writing.
00:32:45I would be if you weren't calling to harass me.
00:32:47Your publisher's just called to harass me.
00:32:51They want the book now.
00:32:53I just need a couple of weeks.
00:32:56Ricky.
00:32:57It's nine months overdue.
00:32:59You're technically in breach.
00:33:01I don't know what they want me to do, Larry.
00:33:03These things take time.
00:33:04Ricky.
00:33:05You've had time.
00:33:06You've taken your time.
00:33:07You've also taken their money.
00:33:10I know.
00:33:12Now, you have to give them something.
00:33:15Anything.
00:33:16A chapter.
00:33:17Or they're going to cancel the deal and demand the advance back.
00:33:20But there won't be anything I can do.
00:33:23Because you'll no longer be my client.
00:33:27Do you understand?
00:33:31Don't be fooled.
00:33:33She's not human.
00:33:34She's thousands of years old.
00:33:37She was created for this.
00:33:39This is her purpose.
00:33:40To inspire men like us.
00:33:42To be involved...
00:33:47She's encouraged.
00:33:48Say something so I know you understand.
00:33:51I understand.
00:33:55I'll send you something.
00:34:16I don't know.
00:34:18I don't know.
00:34:19I don't know.
00:34:57Gracious ladies, mother of the Kamen, hear my prayer.
00:35:03It is I, your daughter, Calliope, that calls you to deliver me from this place.
00:35:12Ladies of meditation, remembrance, and song.
00:35:19Hark into me.
00:35:20All right.
00:35:22Enough beautiful voice.
00:35:31We feel your pain, daughter, but we cannot help you.
00:35:34You were snared upon Helicon according to the mysteries.
00:35:36You are lawfully bound.
00:35:39But it is not just my mother's.
00:35:42Is there nothing you can do?
00:35:44No one who can intercede on my behalf?
00:35:47There are a few of the old powers who are willing or able to meddle in mortal affairs in these
00:35:52days, Calliope.
00:35:52Many gods have died, my daughter.
00:35:55Only the Endless never fade.
00:35:57And even they have been having a difficult time of late.
00:36:03Still, every little bit helps, as the old woman said when she pissed in the sea.
00:36:09The Endless, there's a thought. After all, the dream king and Calliope were close at one point.
00:36:17Not for long. And remember, sister self, they did not part on the best of terms.
00:36:22Still, she did bear his cup. That boy child who went to Hades for his lady love and died in
00:36:32Thrace, torn apart for his sacrilege.
00:36:35He had a beautiful voice too. Orpheus.
00:36:40Dream king will never help me. Not after what I did to him.
00:36:46He hates me for that. And I despise him. I would not accept his help.
00:36:52Foolish child. Onerus is in no position to help you, even if you wished it. Which is unlikely.
00:37:00Like you, your former husband has been ensnared by mortals. He is immured beneath the ground.
00:37:06Leaving this realm gripped by sleeping sickness and a plague of dreams and nightmares wreaking havoc.
00:37:12I am sorry, little one.
00:37:16No.
00:37:17Your prayers were wasted. There's nothing we can do for you.
00:37:23Please.
00:37:24And nothing you can do but hope.
00:37:28Please don't leave me here.
00:37:32I beg of you.
00:37:39We've got a nice little bidding war on our hands.
00:37:43Every major studio wants a piece of him.
00:37:45Film. Broadcast. Streaming.
00:37:48Uh, who's the frontrunner?
00:37:50Whoever lets him write and direct.
00:37:53They won't even let Joe Rowley write and direct.
00:37:56Joe Rowley needs a new agent.
00:37:57Tell her to call me.
00:37:59I will never understand how a work of genre fiction came to be nominated, let alone shortlisted.
00:38:05The committee felt not his new book has transcended genre.
00:38:09Have you read it?
00:38:10No.
00:38:11Of course not.
00:38:11Well, I have.
00:38:14And the reason I've written about an entirely different man.
00:38:17It's a gorgeous book.
00:38:20Quite remarkable.
00:38:22I mean, the sheer richness of the material.
00:38:24Yes.
00:38:25Why has he gone and changed his name?
00:38:28How do you mean?
00:38:29From Richard to Rick.
00:38:30About the cave.
00:38:32I think it probably speaks to the novel's theme of reinvention.
00:38:36I think it probably speaks to the orphan's pretension.
00:38:39Where were we?
00:38:41I was saying how much I loved your characterization of Eileen.
00:38:45Oh.
00:38:45There aren't enough strong female characters in fiction.
00:38:48Not even fiction written by women.
00:38:50I agree.
00:38:52And I know it's fashionable at the moment to say that only women can write authentically
00:38:56about the female experience.
00:38:58But, er, I do tend to regard myself as a feminist writer.
00:39:05Hmm.
00:39:07And where does that voice come from in you?
00:39:10The female voice?
00:39:15From the women in my life.
00:39:17From the women in my life.
00:39:47I'm shooting the movie version in Los Angeles.
00:39:49The studio have hired me a private jet, so we shouldn't have any trouble getting you
00:39:52into the country.
00:39:54And, er, who knows?
00:39:56Maybe we'll decide to stay in L.A.
00:40:02Maybe we will decide?
00:40:06Can you not allow yourself to enjoy our success?
00:40:11Even for a second, we are telling stories that move and inspire people.
00:40:21Isn't that what muses were made for?
00:40:24My sister goddesses and I were born.
00:40:26We were not made.
00:40:28Sorry, it's Larry.
00:40:30Did you talk to the studio?
00:40:37No, I need them to guarantee at the outset that cast and crew will be made up of at least
00:40:4350% women.
00:40:45And people of colour.
00:40:46And then we need to publicise it so they can't back out of it when it comes to hiring people.
00:41:02We're all in the movies.
00:41:12We're all in the movies.
00:41:20So much.
00:41:22Yeah!
00:41:22What are they?
00:41:23I heard the character.
00:41:25What did they do?
00:41:30What do they do?
00:41:31What do they do?
00:41:31What do they do?
00:41:32I'm not.
00:42:05I call to you, Onyros, that you may hear me. Come to my aid when I say your name out
00:42:12loud.
00:42:21Morpheus? What does it mean?
00:42:24It is the name of the God of Dreams.
00:42:32You're writing him a letter?
00:42:35Something like that.
00:42:56You're mine.
00:42:59By law, the God of Dreams can't save you.
00:43:23Thank you for agreeing to do this interview at your home.
00:43:25Thank you for getting the word out about the new book.
00:43:27So, I thought I'd start by asking about your formative literary influences.
00:43:33Well, I wouldn't even be a writer if it wasn't for having read people like Shirley Jackson and Margaret Atwood
00:43:40and Octavia Rebutler.
00:43:42Having read Eagle Stones, the writer that came to mind was the late Erasmus Frye.
00:43:47Oh. Sorry, did you say the late Erasmus Frye? He's, um...
00:43:54He died?
00:43:56Last summer. Did you know him?
00:43:59I didn't know him. We met on a couple of occasions. He was very kind about my work.
00:44:07He must have been almost 90. Did he, um... Did he die of old age?
00:44:13No. He actually poisoned himself.
00:44:18Apparently, the last thing he did was write a letter to his old publisher begging them to bring one of
00:44:23his books back into print.
00:44:25Here comes a candle, I suppose.
00:44:27I think it was. How did you know?
00:44:31It was, perhaps, my favourite book when I was growing up.
00:44:36It was very moving, honest, and...
00:44:41Strange.
00:44:45Poor old sod.
00:44:47It's a shame people stopped reading him, that his work fell out of fashion.
00:44:52Not that you'll have to worry about that.
00:44:54You're Richard Maddock.
00:44:56Oh, sorry. Rick Maddock.
00:44:58Right.
00:45:00Next question.
00:45:09You came.
00:45:15You called.
00:45:19They told me you had been in prison.
00:45:21Just like me.
00:45:23Not like you.
00:45:26My suffering was nothing compared to yours.
00:45:28Don't say that.
00:45:31Comparing our suffering only compounds it.
00:45:33It pains me to hear of your misfortune.
00:45:37I'm glad that you're free.
00:45:39You were bound here by the laws.
00:45:43I know that you cannot free me.
00:45:47Only he can do that, but...
00:45:50Perhaps you might...
00:45:52Inspire him?
00:45:54To let me go?
00:45:56I will do all that.
00:45:59And more.
00:46:01Dream.
00:46:02He must be punished.
00:46:05How?
00:46:06What punishment could be enough?
00:46:09Even his death would not bring back what he has taken from me.
00:46:13He's nothing.
00:46:15He's just a man.
00:46:17I cannot allow him to go free.
00:46:19Why?
00:46:20Because I was once yours.
00:46:23Because he heard you.
00:46:28The last time I saw you, you said you would never speak to me again.
00:46:32I'm sorry.
00:46:33I...
00:46:35I did not know where else to turn.
00:46:39You misunderstand me.
00:46:42When I heard you call to me.
00:46:44Even after all this time.
00:46:54Let me help you.
00:46:57Please.
00:47:00I owe you that much.
00:47:09What will you do to him?
00:47:27What the...
00:47:28Who the fuck are you?
00:47:30Get out of my house.
00:47:32Be quiet.
00:47:34You are keeping a woman here against her will.
00:47:38I have come to request that you set her free.
00:47:42You out of your mind?
00:47:44There's no woman here.
00:47:45I'm calling the police.
00:47:46Do you know who I am?
00:47:47I know precisely who and what you are, Richard Maddock.
00:47:55Are you going to call the police?
00:47:57No.
00:47:58No.
00:47:59I will not call any human agency.
00:48:02Just let her go.
00:48:03You don't understand.
00:48:04I need her.
00:48:05If I didn't have her, I wouldn't be able to write.
00:48:07I wouldn't have ideas.
00:48:09Look.
00:48:10I have money.
00:48:11Hold your tongue.
00:48:17She has been held captive for more than 60 years.
00:48:24Demeaned.
00:48:25Abused.
00:48:27Defiled.
00:48:28Then you will not set her free because you need ideas.
00:48:32Well.
00:48:34If it's ideas you want, then you shall have them.
00:48:38In abundance.
00:48:39In abundance.
00:48:40In abundance.
00:48:59In abundance.
00:49:09In abundance.
00:49:09What did you do to me?
00:49:13Are you giving me nightmares now?
00:49:17Tell me!
00:49:19I have done nothing to you, Richard Maddock.
00:49:24You have met Morpheus.
00:49:27Whom the Romans called the Shaper of Form.
00:49:29He was once my husband.
00:49:33And the father of my son.
00:49:36I didn't know you had a son.
00:49:38You know nothing about me.
00:49:41But it is too late to let any of that concern you now.
00:49:52And in the darkness, he thought about the story in every star.
00:50:02Like fireflies.
00:50:04Flicking.
00:50:07Fading.
00:50:08Fading.
00:50:10In the night.
00:50:13In the night.
00:50:13In the night.
00:50:26Any questions?
00:50:27Thanks.
00:50:29Oh.
00:50:31The young woman in the third row.
00:50:37Your work spans so many genres.
00:50:41So many worlds.
00:50:42So many different kinds of characters.
00:50:45May I just ask, where does all that come from?
00:50:49For me, ideas don't come from anywhere.
00:50:57They're all around us.
00:50:59All the time.
00:51:00I could write an entire novel set at a book reading.
00:51:09There.
00:51:11Something had happened to the world outside.
00:51:14A holocaust of some kind.
00:51:17But the audience.
00:51:18We're same.
00:51:21As long as the author kept reading.
00:51:26Or.
00:51:27A story about the fraternity of critics.
00:51:30In reality, a dark brethren linked by profane rites and blood vows.
00:51:37To destroy an author, they sacrifice a child.
00:51:40And perform a critical mass.
00:51:47Or a city where the streets are paved with time.
00:51:51A train.
00:51:53Full of silent women.
00:51:55Driven by a blind man.
00:52:07Heads made of light.
00:52:08Sorry.
00:52:13A weregoldfish.
00:52:15Who transforms into a wolf at full moon.
00:52:19A man who inherits a library card to the Library of Alexandria.
00:52:26Two old women taking a weasel on holiday.
00:52:35A sister note about silence using the words dark, ragged, never, screaming, fire, kiss.
00:52:48An old man who wrote the universe and kept it in a jam jar.
00:52:52A man who falls in love with a paper doll.
00:52:54Mr. Maddock.
00:52:55It's Nora.
00:52:56What's happened to your hands?
00:52:57I'm just having so many ideas.
00:52:59I didn't have a pen or any paper.
00:53:02I just used my hands.
00:53:08I said I needed the ideas, but they're coming too fast.
00:53:12We need to get him to the hospital.
00:53:13We need to get him to the hospital.
00:53:14No, please.
00:53:15Go to my house.
00:53:17There is a woman in a room upstairs.
00:53:21She's locked up in there.
00:53:24Tell her that she can go.
00:53:25That I free her.
00:53:27I don't understand.
00:53:28Take my keys.
00:53:30Let her out.
00:53:31Make her leave.
00:53:32Make her go away.
00:53:36I signed a book for you once.
00:53:38Didn't I?
00:53:41Please.
00:53:44Okay.
00:53:45Okay, I'll go.
00:53:47Make it stop.
00:53:49Tell her I am sorry.
00:53:52Magical and alchemical traditions seen as a cargo cult.
00:53:56We'll meet you at the hospital.
00:53:57The sun setting over the path and a shark's teeth soup.
00:54:00A nightingale.
00:54:01A rose bush.
00:54:02And a black rubber dog collar.
00:54:22Hello?
00:54:28This is Whoa!
00:54:37Good morning at all this.
00:54:42Rain and jimiting and when we nailing?
00:54:47op
00:54:51if you stand, the truckITCH is asked how much's your face should draped and snowing.
00:54:53Hold my place.
00:54:54Yeah!
00:54:56Well, these duplicates.
00:54:59It is over.
00:55:10I merely answered your call.
00:55:15What will you do now?
00:55:20I think what I must do is to...
00:55:24try to make sure that this never happens to anyone else ever again.
00:55:30How?
00:55:32I do not know.
00:55:35By inspiring humanity to want better for themselves and each other.
00:55:41By rewriting the laws by which I was held.
00:55:44Laws that were written long ago and which my sisters and I had no say.
00:55:49I shall do the same in my realm.
00:55:53You have changed, Oneros.
00:55:56In the old days you would have left me here to rot without turning a hair.
00:56:04Do you still hate me?
00:56:07For leaving you?
00:56:10For blaming you for what happened?
00:56:12No.
00:56:16I have learned much in recent times and...
00:56:23No matter.
00:56:26I do not hate you.
00:56:34I think you should release the mortal now.
00:56:38He has set me free.
00:56:40And without forgiveness wounds will never heal.
00:56:42You would forgive him...
00:56:44for what he has done?
00:56:46I would not forgive what he has done.
00:56:49But I must forgive the man.
00:56:51Not for him.
00:56:53For me.
00:56:56Will you free him?
00:56:59If that is what you wish...
00:57:03It shall be done.
00:57:13I'm back, Mr. Maddox.
00:57:16How are you feeling?
00:57:17I...
00:57:20I don't know anymore.
00:57:22I...
00:57:23I keep trying to think.
00:57:26I did what you asked.
00:57:27I went to your place.
00:57:30There was just...
00:57:31a book.
00:57:33There was something she said.
00:57:35The...
00:57:36paper of forms.
00:57:39There was a name.
00:57:40She wrote it down.
00:57:42I...
00:57:45I wish I could remember.
00:57:47It's so hard to...
00:57:50think all of a sudden.
00:57:53Is there anyone I should call?
00:57:55She's gone.
00:58:01And it's all gone with her.
00:58:04The ideas.
00:58:06The stories.
00:58:11They were all hers.
00:58:14Whose?
00:58:15Who are you talking about?
00:58:22I have no...
00:58:26idea.
00:58:32No idea.
00:58:38I have no idea.
00:58:39May I...
00:58:40visit you...
00:58:41in the dream realm sometime?
00:58:44So that we may...
00:58:45finally talk about our son.
00:58:51And...
00:58:51grieve him...
00:58:53properly?
00:58:56One day.
00:58:57Perhaps, but...
00:59:01I understand.
00:59:18Thank you, Monerlos.
00:59:22I will not forget this.
00:59:26Fare you well.
00:59:32You fortune me with you.
00:59:37Goodbye, God.
01:00:01Bye.
01:00:21Hello.
01:00:24Hello.
