His father brings him and a select group of friends to a new Dreamworld the very next night - the one Dreamworld in all the Network that allowed children to roam free, obtain a sort of power, and face the responsibilities involved. A Dreamworld where children Travel with and care for animal Comrades, a Dreamworld meant for children to grow and mature without parents looking over their shoulders all the time.
There Colin explores friendship like he never had before... and finds that it could be the only thing he could count on to protect him.
