Hey guys I'm currently writing a novel that dealing with theme of dream. I basically using "dream world" frame within the story, and would like to know whether there are any other god of dream other than Morpheus and the oneiroi (Phobetor, Phantasos, etc).
Unfortunately I couldnt' find any Morpheus' counterpart in other myths, it seems he's uniquely Greek. Does anyone expert of ancient greek religion here and especially about Morpheus? Was this god actually worshiped in ancient religion just like the olympians or he was just a personification of dream? Is there any god of dream in other myth/religions? (Aboriginal myth deals with dream as their genesis, though I couldn't find any name of dream god in my reference)
