Sandman

Sandman is not a real animal, but a mythical character in European folklore who puts people to sleep and inspires beautiful dreams by sprinkling magical sand onto their eyes.

The name Sandman comes from the idea that the grit or "sleep" in one's eyes upon waking is the result of his work the previous night.

Different cultures have different versions of the Sandman.

In Scandinavian folklore, he is a benevolent figure who helps children sleep and dream.

In German folklore, he is a sinister creature who throws sand in the eyes of children who would not sleep, causing them to fall out and be collected by him.

In Romanian folklore, he is a similar character called Moș Ene (Ene the Elder).

The Sandman, also known as the Sandman animal, refers to a fictional creature often depicted in folklore as the bringer of dreams. However, in the animal kingdom, the name evokes the Sand Cat (Felis margarita), a fascinating desert-dwelling feline. Native to sandy regions of Africa, Central Asia, and Kazakhstan, the Sand Cat is well-adapted to extreme desert conditions with its thick fur that insulates against heat and cold. Unlike most cats, it hunts small rodents and birds in both daylight and nighttime. This enigmatic creature's ability to thrive in harsh environments makes it a true marvel of nature.

• In the comic book series by Neil Gaiman, the Sandman is also known as Dream, one of the Endless, who rules over the realm of dreams called the Dreaming.
  He lives in a castle in the center of the Dreaming, where he keeps his library, gallery, and other treasures.

Far away, in the heart of the tranquil Eldertide Sanctuary, Iris, a devoted animal caretaker, tended to her beloved creatures. Among them was Buster, a gentle Sandman with a shimmering, golden coat that sparkled like stardust under the moonlight. Buster was no ordinary creature; he had a magical charm that made him a favorite among the sanctuary's residents.

One moonlit night, a strange occurrence disrupted their peace. The sanctuary's beloved bubble machine, which had enchanted visitors with its iridescent bubbles, suddenly began to produce bubbles that shimmered with an eerie, unnatural glow. These bubbles floated aimlessly, casting strange, haunting lights on the sanctuary grounds and eventually vanishing into thin air, leaving behind an unsettling chill.

Iris, intrigued and concerned, decided to delve into the mystery. She noticed that whenever Buster was near the machine, the bubbles glowed brighter and seemed to dance more erratically. Suspecting that Buster's gentle magic might be linked to the phenomenon, Iris approached him with a mix of curiosity and concern.

As Iris and Buster investigated, the bubble machine's behavior grew more erratic. Bubbles began to pulse with an ominous energy, and an otherworldly hum resonated through the air. Iris, following her instincts and Buster's gentle guidance, discovered a hidden compartment in the machine. Inside, an ancient scroll was wrapped around a small, crystalline orb. The scroll, written in an ancient language, described a spell that could channel celestial energy into the machine but warned of a delicate balance.

Realizing that the spell had been triggered by an old, forgotten enchantment, Iris and Buster worked together to reverse it. They meticulously followed the scroll's instructions, using Buster's calming presence to stabilize the energy and ensure the spell was properly undone. As they completed the ritual, the bubbles began to return to their familiar, cheerful glow, drifting gently in the night air.

With the mystery resolved and the sanctuary's tranquility restored, Iris thanked Buster for his crucial role. The bond between them had deepened, and they both knew that they had not only solved a supernatural occurrence but had also uncovered a deeper connection to the magical world around them.
