5. Finish What You Started

Still in the Faust System and unable to wake, Jacob’s integrity is gnawing at him. Ignored by Celu, he decides to return to the prison and save his friends in custody. When he arrives, they have already been freed by a mysterious saviour. Surrounded by escapees, Jacob finally meets his Muse, Clio Aeschylus. Though Clio can show Jacob how to get home, she has discovered a direct correlation between Nothing’s plan to destroy dreams and the enormous apathy in the Waking World. The ridiculousness of President Trump, Australia’s lack of focus with Covid19 and celebrities like Kanye West announcing their presidential candidacy are all directly related to what is happening in the REM. Clio discovers Jacob has been haplessly creating objects which could be become dangerous weapons in the wrong hands. Will Jacob finish what he started and save the Waking World from imminent despair – and the possibility of Kim Kardashian as the first lady - or will he disbelieve all and return to his boring little life?
