When does Ravenbloom Student trigger when casting Falling Star, and does it get +1 Might before or after the damage instances resolve? Does Falling Star trigger Dreaming Tree?

Answer
Ruling: Ravenbloom Student gets +1 Might from Falling Star after targets are declared but before damage is dealt. Falling Star does not trigger Dreaming Tree because it's a triggered ability (not a spell) doing the targeting.
Sequence:
- Falling Star is played and goes on the chain
- Falling Star resolves and adds damage triggers as pending
- Ravenbloom Student trigger is added as pending
- Cleanup finalizes all pending triggers (this is when targeting happens)
- Ravenbloom Student trigger resolves first (last in, first out)
- Then damage instances resolve
Nuances:
- Ravenbloom Student only gets +1 Might for the one spell cast, not for each damage trigger from Falling Star
- Ravenbloom Tome does increase the damage from Falling Star's reflexive triggers because damage from reflexive triggers is attributed to the original spell
- Riot has indicated they may want Falling Star to trigger Dreaming Tree in a future rules update, but current rules as written do not support this
