Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Which of the seven Endless abandoned his position?

Answer: Destruction

Dream is far too responsible to quit. Despair doesn't seem to want to leave. Delight is now {Delirium;} that was a trick option.

2. What is the name of the nightmare that eats people's eyes?

Answer: The Corinthian

Morpheus was forced to unmake The Corinthian after he had gone into the waking world. Morpheus later remade him.

3. Which of the following is not a story teller who lives in The Dreaming?

Answer: Adam

Adam is never seen in the 'Sandman' series, only referred to once. The other three reside in The Dreaming to guard and tell various stories.

4. What do the Three Fates prefer to be called?

Answer: The Kindly Ones

These are the three who sought vengeance on Morpheus for killing Orpheus.

5. Who is seen playing the piano in a night club?

Answer: Lucifer

That's right -- Lucifer owns and plays the piano in a nightclub, following his retirement as the Lord of Hell.

6. Who killed Morpheus' son?

Answer: Morpheus

That's right, Morpheus killed his own son, but it's not as bad as it sounds. His son (Orpheus) was being kept alive as only a head and he wanted nothing more than to die, so Morpheus killed him and granted his death wish.

7. Which of the following has not died at least once?

Answer: Cain

Gryphon and Mervyn were killed by the Kindly Ones, and it is mentioned in the last book that the original Despair died and the current one is her reborn. Cain can't be killed (he has a protecting mark from God).

8. What happens in the Dreaming when Morpheus breaks up with his latest female companion?

Answer: Rain

Morpheus sulks, and it rains.

9. What writer does Morpheus commission two works from?

Answer: William Shakespeare

Shakespeare wrote 'A Midsummer Night's Dream' and 'The Tempest' for Morpheus in exchange for the Dream King unlocking Shakespeare's writing talents.

10. Who was Morpheus' first Raven?

Answer: Lucien

Lucien, the keeper of the Library, was the orginal raven. Matthew is the current one.
