I was thinking about entities and the fact that sleep and dreams being a uniquely human experience they don't fully grasp. So shards experimenting with dream states are fumbling in alien territory.

Sleeper’s shard might be one of those experiments gone “too far,” producing a power that even the shard can’t fully model. Like he might be in a permanent state of dream walking and the Shard alters the fabric of reality within an AOE to conform to his dream.
