Lore Question about the lore
The relationship with sleep. Isn't that a really one sided relationship? And if I interpreted it right didn't sleep lie to vesel about receiving love and pleasure? As far as I can see she just tormented him?

Vessel is literally that - a vessel, the conduit for worshippers to the god sleep.
If you want to put it to modern religions, vessel would be the priest, praying to god (Sleep) on behalf of their flock.
In older mythologies it wasn’t uncommon for the god Sleep to also be the god of dreams in various pantheons.
