The first instance of a dream stone meteor hitting was about five years ago in western Africa. That first incident caused a massive stir in the world as fantastical things began to occur in that area. Locals that discovered the meteor suddenly had their lives changed forever in numerous inexplicable ways.
Some people suddenly became very wealthy. Others regained their youth. It was as if all of their dreams came true, hence the name dream stone.
At the moment though, the area directly surrounding the impact site of the meteor is a ghost town. Not a single human lives close to the dream stone and more people try to move away from that area all the time.
Dream stone is an apt name as nightmares began to pour out of the stone as well. Nightmares of losing their wealth, youth or even lives began to manifest just as quickly as their initial dreams gave those things to them. Formless, nameless monsters brought from the depths of people’s dreams began to ravage the area, leaving piles of ruined dreams.
