You don't have to choose a target for Stress Dream. However, if you do and the target creature is an illegal target as Stress Dream tries to resolve, it won't resolve and none of its effects will happen. You won't look at any cards in your library.

Price History
To study a single card is to glimpse the heart of a spell - a frozen moment of ambition, artistry, and arcane intent. Within each glyph lies a spark: a story untold, a duel turned, a destiny altered. Treat it not as mere parchment, dear seeker, but as a shard of the Multiverse itself.
