One night while sleeping in a forest near any town, the characters hear a thunder-like BOOM that awakens them. They see a glow off to the south. If they investigate, it will turn out to be a space meteor containing a very valuable metal that makes exceptionally strong weapons. The meteor is much too heavy for them to lift, but fortunately, a Gold Dragon was also drawn to the scene. The characters notice him as soon as they arrive on the scene. The dragon will help them carry the meteor to the town for (up to DM) about 50% of its value (up to DM).
