Dorian sighed. "To what end Calvin? These unexplained deaths as you happen in their sleep with no explanation. What are we going to do? Do you capture a nightmare and bring it to justice? We have bigger problems than finding more work to do. Don't you think?"
Dorian knew he was being rude. But even if this man was a dreamwalker, what were the cops going to do about deaths that had already happened? You can't stop a nightmare in the dream. Nightmares were physical manifestations yes, but by the time a body is found they are long gone. Dorian didn't know how to convey the problem without revealing what he was. Without revealing he was a vigilante out to kill those with strange unique powers. Leave the nightmares to the Atharim. They know how to handle them, know how to track them. This was a rookie cop what did he know of nightmares or monsters.
