Galaxies Within

Dr. Evelyn Marek has long believed that dreams are not just random flashes from the subconscious. As a pioneering psychologist and neuroscientist, she invented the Dreamscope—a device that maps the human brain during REM sleep with unprecedented clarity. What she discovers changes everything. Inside our minds lie vast, galaxy-like structures—complex living worlds made up of memory, emotion, and thought. And what about dreams? They are not illusions. They are vessels, vessels traveling through these inner galaxies. As Evelyn explores them further, she meets a mute girl named Amara—a nonverbal child with the ability to navigate not only her dream world, but the minds of others as well. With Amara's help, Evelyn discovers a hidden network of "dreamrunners," rare individuals who can travel between mental galaxies and even heal the wounded minds of others. But something dark is spreading. A mysterious force known as the Echo Fleet begins to corrupt dreams, devour the stars of memory and hope, and threatens to collapse humanity's minds. Evelyn forms the Clear Order to respond, waging a silent war beyond the boundaries of thought and sleep. To stop this destruction, Evelyn and her dreammasters must journey to the primal dream—the origin of all consciousness—and confront the darkness at its source. "The Galaxies Within" is an imaginative blend of psychological science fiction and metaphysical wonder—a story about the power of connection, the beauty of the inner world, and the luminous power that lies within even the most disintegrated minds.
