For a thousand years, the unfinished dreams from the City Across the Sea came to Echo Fjord to find sanctuary. Emerging from the soil, they took bodily form and wandered the land, gently guided by the fjord folk. But recently they've stopped coming, and Eartha wants solve the mystery. Without thought or hesitation, the city isn't on any map, or in anyone's memory, she ventures into the limitless waters, hoping to find the City.

I really liked the tone of this, but ultimately either I didn't get it, or there just wasn't enough there for me to feel like it was complete. It felt like a prose poem that somehow got expanded to a really long graphic novel. The art was pretty decent, some nice architecture stuff. The dreams weren't weird enough to feel like dreams to me. Then again, "the city" didn't really feel like our reality either, so maybe it was all one big dream.
