Clutching his treasures to his chest, mind brimming and fevered
with new ideas and experiences, the Hero has become:
The Master of Two Worlds
With his new insight, the Hero is able to perceive both the real
world of flesh and bone and the divine world of our dreams.
...and if the Hero is "Graveyard" Frank Trautman,

down these dreams, not to mention a laptop
to upload them into this digital world as well...

the street is your tower, and the Death Card is, well, Death.
Frank has been chronicling his nightly travels for some time, and he
offers his necro-nautical log book up
for your curiosity and amusement:
