I'm curious, in one of the sandman issues, it talks about each of the endless and on despair it mentions a sect of people who worshiped her once and eventually all killed themselves.

Does anybody know who these people were?

I think they were made up, its just another one of those Sandman mystery, like who killed Despair? What is the story of Alianora? why did Delight change? And who/what was dream fighting prior to when he was captured?

You can even assume that the last of the sect member killed Despair.

If you want a happy ending, that depends, of course, on where you stop your story.


To influence a person is to give him one's own soul. He does not think his natural thoughts, or burn with his natural passions. His virtues are not real to him. His sins, if there are such things as sins, are borrowed. He becomes an echo of some one else's music, an actor of a part that has not been written for him. The aim of life is self-development. To realize one's nature perfectly that is what each of us is here for.

I dunno, I want to believe its something real. Maybe I should ask neil. I know some of the stuff in the sandman was made up but alot of it comes from real sources. hmm. I wonder if it says in the companion guide, maybe I missed it.

*goes to double check*
