A demented writer purchases a muse named Calliope and keeps her locked up to exploit her idea-generating abilities. Unfortunately for the writer, Calliope also happens to be a close friend of Morpheus. And the Dream King doesn’t take kindly to kidnappers…
A struggling writer buys Calliope, a captured muse, so that he'll be able to write again. After years of confinement, she desperately seeks help from anyone, even Dream.
