Line 1: {{trope}} {{quote\|''As far as he could remember, Sam slept through the night in deep content, if logs are contented.''~~\|'''[[JRR Tolkien (Creator)\|JRR Tolkien]]''', ''[[Lord of the Rings\|The Fellowship of the Ring]]''}}~~ \|'''[[J. R. R. Tolkien]]''', ''[[The Lord of the Rings\|The Fellowship of the Ring]]''}} Sleep. Deep, profound, unwakeable sleep. Not imposed on the sleeper but springing from his own need for sleep. Line 9 ⟶ 10: [[Truth in Television]]. Merges insensibly with unconsciousness, since the hallmark of true unconsciousness is inability to be woken. {{examples}} == Literature == Line 16 ⟶ 18: * In [[KW Jeter]]'s ''[[Morlock Night]]'', the narrator, when he wakes, finds that Dr. Ambrose and Miss Tafe have waited for him. He apologizes, but he had never had such a deep sleep. * In [[Jane Yolen]] and [[Midori Snyder]]'s ''Except The Queen'', Robin sleeps profoundly in Serana's house. * In Angie Sage's ''Syren'', [[~~Septimus Heap (Literature)\|~~Septimus Heap]] sleeps so deeply that he forgets Spyt Fire and all but panicks when he remembers. * In [[Gene Stratton Porter]]'s ''Michael O'Halloran'', Mickey is terrified by how deeply Peaches sleeps the night after he brings her home. * Elizabeth Kerner's [[~~Tales of Kolmar (Literature)\|~~Tales of Kolmar]] universe has the [[Our Dragons Are Different\|Kantri]] go into what's called a "Weh sleep" when they're seriously injured and need to heal, or when they're due to grow, as they grow in stages throughout their lengthy lives. In the latter case they have between a day's and an hour's warning, and then they start to tear away their own armored scales before falling asleep. Then their other scales fall off and soft new ones are exposed. Over a course of months or years they grow and harden while asleep. If they're almost finished, they can be woken by a good friend shouting their [[I Know Your True Name\|truename]], but if not... In ''The Lesser Kindred'', when the Kantri {{spoiler\|have to evacuate their island}}, Nikis is at a stage where it's impossible to wake her, and she has to be bodily carried away at great effort. == Live-Action TV == Line 24 ⟶ 26: == Webcomics == * ''[[Impure Blood]]'': [https://web.archive.org/web/20131007235241/http://www.impurebloodwebcomic.com/Pages/Chapter003/ib017.html Roan is out cold after his escape]. * ''[[Precocious (Webcomic)\|Precocious]]'': [http://www.precociouscomic.com/archive/comic/2010/09/28 During break, offering such chances] ** [http://www.precociouscomic.com/archive/comic/2011/05/27 And again.] Line 30 ⟶ 32: {{reflist}} [[Category:Injury Tropes]] [[Category:~~Indexitis~~Medical Tropes]] [[Category:Truth in Television]] [[Category:Sleep and Wakefulness Tropes]]
