A dream goes vague fast, usually before you have finished getting out of bed. Whatever survives to breakfast is a summary of a summary, and most of what made the thing strange in the first place is already gone by then.
A small set of prompt pages asks the questions worth asking before the details fade: where you were, who else was there, what changed without explanation, how it ended if it ended at all. The rest of the book is plain ruled space, because most nights do not need a prompt, only somewhere to write fast.
There is no key at the back for what any of it means. That is not what a ruled page is for, and this one does not pretend otherwise.

In every book
The same six pages open every book: your details, who to call, the signs to point at when you have no shared language, and the map. They sit at the front because the moment you need them is not the moment to be flicking through.
- How to use it
- One page describing this book, not a different one.
- This book belongs to
- One page for your name and number, so a book that goes missing can come back.
- My details
- Blood group, allergies, who to call. Written once, carried everywhere.
- Emergency numbers
- Forty countries, taken from Wikidata property P2852 (CC0), agreed across two sources, every row carrying its QID. Numbers change and a book does not — verify locally on arrival.
- Point at this
- A pictogram grid captioned in English above and Indonesian below, for when there is no shared language.
- World map
- Natural Earth 110m, public domain, equirectangular, with UTC hour meridians computed from the projection rather than from a timezone database. For orientation and for pointing at, not a navigation chart.
- Conversion tables
- Computed from definitions — 25.4 mm to the inch — and not copied from anywhere, so every row can be checked by anyone holding the book.
- Pen test leaf
- The last page, printed for it on purpose. Every notebook is used this way; printing it deliberately is cheaper than losing the last leaf to it by accident.
The film

A vertical film from our own bench — this page contacts nobody's server to play it, and downloads nothing until you press play.

Questions
Is it dated?
No. Write whenever you wake with something to write.
What are the prompt pages for?
A short set of questions to ask yourself before the details go: where, who, what changed, how it ended.
Does it interpret dreams?
No. There is no meaning attached to anything you write. It only holds the record.
How is it ruled?
Lined, plain, front to back.
Can I use it during the day too?
Nothing stops you, though the prompt pages assume you are writing close to waking.
Remember that all is but opinion, and all opinion depends of the mind.
