“Have you heard about this town?” “A forgotten mining town with no gemstones left.” “But at night, all of its people come together. Like in one single, strange dream.” The hotel’s doors creak again. Midori, green earrings shining as bright as always, is ready to welcome today’s new guests. This used to be a thriving mining community, but now, with no more gemstones left to take, it’s just a peaceful, boring countryside town. There’s just one strange rumor going around. Every night, when they go to bed, the townspeople all have one, shared dream. And you know what? It’s a fun, amazing dream too! Many visit the town just to experience that very dream, and for once, the hotel is getting new business daily. Midori, too, is always curious to learn more about the people who wander in the hotel. Eventually, that curiosity will lead Midori to discover the secret behind the town. There must be a reason if everyone is having the same dream at once, right? If you want to join the receptionist on this adventure... sleep tight.
