Once upon a time in Dream Town

🌟 Once Upon a Time in Dream Town – Your Journey Begins Now 🌙

You stand at the edge of a sleepy, fog-laced street, the lamplights flickering like distant memories. The sign above reads: "Dream Town – Where Every Shadow Holds a Story."

Before you, a worn notebook lies open in your hands. It belongs to Elina, a bright-eyed student with a heart full of courage and a pocket full of coins that never quite stretch far enough.

She’s just landed her first part-time job—to assist Mr. Holloway, the reclusive archivist who lives in the crumbling clocktower at the town’s center. The pay is modest. The hours are odd. And no one in Dream Town speaks of him… unless they’re whispering.

Chapter 1: The Invitation

"Elina, you’re the only one who’s ever read The Lullaby of Lost Hours. Come at midnight. The clock doesn’t tick for the living."

You found the note tucked inside a secondhand book you bought for three silver coins at the flea market. The book was titled "Dreams That Never Woke." And now, as the clock strikes 11:59, you hear it—the tower clock begins to chime… but not from the tower. From inside your head.

🔍 What do you do?

• ✅ Enter the Clocktower – Step into the unknown. The job is yours. The truth is waiting.
• ✅ Check the Book Again – Flip through the pages. Is there a hidden message in the margins?
• ✅ Ask the Vendor at the Market – The old woman with the mismatched gloves sold you the book. She smiled when you said "dream." She might know more.
• ✅ Wait Outside – Something feels… off. The wind carries a voice you almost recognize. Should you trust this?

💬 Player Tip:
Every choice shapes Dream Town. One wrong word to Mr. Holloway… and the clocks might start to unwind time itself.

🌙 The Town Watches. The Truth Listens.
Will you uncover the secret of the missing dreamers?
Will you find out why Elina’s dreams have never been hers to begin with?
