[[Image:Dreamstone_Sprite.png]][[Crono]]'s party discovers from [[Melchior]] that the Masamune was forged from Dreamstone and that the sword cannot be repaired without this precious stone. However, since [[Present|1000 A.D.]], Dreamstone has been lost for ages. Crono travels back in time to Prehistory (65,000,000 B.C.) to retrieve this stone, which in the possession of [[Ayla]], the Ioka Village chief. The stone is passed on to the chief with each generation, marking it as a symbol of power and leadership. Ayla awards Crono with a sample of the stone after being beaten at a soup-chugging contest. The stone is stolen by [[Reptite]]s prior to this event and must be reacquired.

Dreamstone never appears in the game, but [[Ultimania]] claims Dreamstone and [[Frozen Flame]] are identical minerals. Interestingly, Frozen Flame is a shard of [[Lavos]] and the Dreamstone develops naturally within the planet; however, both minerals react significantly to the energy of Lavos. While Dreamstone certainly is powerful, it was in possession by humans long before the creation of Zeal in varying amounts, apparently without expanding their mind like the passage states. The Frozen Flame, of course, is responsible for the abnormal growth of the human brain when it made contact with humans in 3000000 B.C., metaphorically "cultivating dreams," leading the "apes" out of the caves to create Zeal and begin modern civilization. The question becomes a matter of whether [[Masato Kato]] had planned the Frozen Flame's existence at the time of ''Chrono Trigger'''s completion.

One interesting possibility that would bring both Ultimania and the game's canon into union is that perhaps Lavos's shell, was constructed partly of Dreamstone, of which Frozen Flame is simply a very special mutation (an intelligence, vital-functioning organism) that crystallized upon impact with [[Tyranno Lair]] and the surrounding crater of magma. This is unable to be confirmed, however.
