Nineveh® "Keepers of Dreams" Story Summary
Mr. Herbert is a Keeper of Dreams “When he whispers a story in the hidden realm of Nineveh — they become dreams in the minds of sleeping children on earth. He is now one of the last of his kind and has been entrusted by the others with the urgent task to guide his stories to earthly descendants of the City of Amethyst — chosen Elect, rare dreamers on Earth with a special ability to travel between worlds while sound asleep. Many believe it is their gemstone necklace that gives them their power. As long as the Elect dream, the Keepers continue to exist — their lives in the unseen realm of Nineveh bound to the dreams of these earthly flesh dwellers. Alone the Keepers can no longer withstand the demonic forces of the evil Queen Beelzebub and her sinister warlock, Mr. Hexenmeister. These enemies of dreams have vowed to silence the Keepers and imprison the Elect in dreamless sleep, sealing the narrow gate between Earth and Nineveh forever. For as long as there have been dreams, there has been darkness — one to comfort the children of earth — the other wishes to devouring them. The age of dreams is slowly fading. Keepers will soon cease to exist…unless the Elect act quickly to find a way to defeat the Evil Beelzebub and the Enemies of Dreams.”
