Raatcharch Member	Posted Hello all, and please pardon my questions. I wasn't sure where else to go to get my question answered. In Sandman, Volume 5, "A Game of You," there is a large monolith called the "hierogram" that bears a large inscription that appears Japanese to my eye. Can anyone provide me with a translation of this stone? It has really been driving me nuts! Thanks!

the madness of queen monk Wild horses did drag her away, once - long story Member	Posted Hide Post According to "The Sandman Companion," it is a Hierogram and says "Dreaming" in Japanese Katakana lettering.
