Thanks! I can't think of any specific inspiration for that element of the story, but I've always thought that dreaming is super weird, and I really related to this xkcd comic: xkcd.com/203/ So I used to joke that something really bizarre had to be happening while we were dreaming, like connecting to some bigger consciousness that we can't remember when we wake up. That's where the idea for those characters came from. Oddly enough, after writing God's Assassin, I actually started to take the general idea that we're all connected to a single metaconsciousness more seriously. we-are-1.net explains my whole thought process on this particular topic. If my beliefs now are true, then maybe it was just kicking around in my subconscious the whole time... or maybe it's kicking around in ALL of our subconsciouses! Dun dun DUUUUNNNN!!!
