Wilson Indeed! : They Met In A Dream And Agreed To Meet In Real Life. Bad Idea!

Wilson Armitage was just five years old when he spoke French. Unusual, because Wilson was English and had never heard a French word in his life. His parents put it down to Foreign Accent Syndrome - a known phenomenon he would eventually grow out of. But that couldn't explain all the other 'unique abilities', the cryptic dreams and the chance encounter years later that confirmed there really are things out there we don't understand.In The Market Square, the fantastical setting for all his dream activities, Wilson is able to take night classes on any topic and absorb a wealth of knowledge from just a few hours of sleep. As though logging into a 'Wi-Fi of dreams' to download data. As his childhood passes by, both wary of, and reticent to acknowledge his extraordinary talent, Wilson attempts to lead a normal life and stay beneath the radar of family and friends. At the age of seventeen however, his cover is blown by Daisy Meadowcroft. During a chance encounter in The Market Square, they agree to meet the next day and are propelled from a dream world into the reality of an overcrowded coffee shop in the centre of Manchester. Enthralled by their shared gift, they strike up a close friendship and encourage each other to seek a rational, scientific explanation for their unique talents. As Wilson and Daisy investigate the boundaries of The Market Square, Teaps, Wilson's best friend, is struggling to come to terms with his alcoholic father and missing mother. Convinced she'll return one day, Teaps sparks a desire in Wilson to use his talents for a greater purpose. In his quest for answers however, Wilson discovers a darker side to their dreamscapes. He stumbles across an entirely new dimension to The Market Square, called 'The Gateway' - a colossal structure in which time and dreams can be straddled to mind-blowing effect. Wilson meets The Gateway's custodians who warn of grave risks in trying to influence his friend's future. They present an immense hall, filled with millions of gold bangles and explain that each one represents the extinguished soul of a human spirit. At that moment, the pieces in Wilson's puzzling life fall into place. A few nights later, a bizarre dream hosted at The Gateway to celebrate Daisy's birthday has ominous consequences - a sign of the night terrors to come.
