Once inside, Andrea discovers tent after tent of drams come alive: she can fly on a gust of wind, brave swashbuckling pirates and search for buried treasure, reach for-- and wish on -- a tangible star, and much, much more. But Andrea soon realizes that not all Reverie's dreams are meant to delight and the Sandman controlling the circus tents seems to have plans of his own.
