There were a couple of reasons for Lukas to not trust Rhea, and yet unlike all of the other Dream Eaters–she had shown herself to him. Stacy denied seeing anything or anyone like a Dream Eater.
"It was just me… just me in that dream." Stacy whispered quietly as she still tried to wrap her mind about what had happened.
"Normally, um, a Dream Eater doesn't do anything particularly strange or disturb the dreamer so that they don't wake up." Rhea's voice explained.
"And yet you did." Lukas said.
"Sorry?" Stacy raised her head and met Lukas' gaze. She was slightly confused and didn't seem to understand what he was saying.
"I guess I'm the only one who can hear you." Lukas realized.
"Of course, I haven't connected to the mind of your friend over here but if you would let me…" Rhea enticingly said.
"No. Just tell me where we need to go next." Lukas cut the girl off from giving him any more ideas and instead focused on saving the others. He then glanced at Stacy and smiled wearily.
