Description

Without the Nightwell to feed upon, my comrades and I will have to live off the land itself.

Ancient mana from the underground leylines can reach the surface in many forms, most commonly as crystals or gems.

<Thalyssra picks up a small stone and, whispering words of power, traces a rune upon it with her fingertip.>

This stone will glow when ancient mana is nearby. Please gather as much as possible! It will be a precious resource in the weeks to come.
