This glowing fuel was invented by Ajada Dimidric after The Calamity, and heavily inspired by its Colossi floods.
It brought life to the spacestations and revitalized technolagy and trade all across Jaumun and Vondren.

Manufacturing process

Taking the form of a liquid solution, refined criolidhium contains very finely (and carefully) powdered criolidhium crystals, metal flakes, salt, and water. It's a relatively simple seeming recipe for such a powerful fuel.

Adding powdered vie bone makes it more stable and last longer, but isn't necessary and is heavily frowned upon.

The process for refining Criolidhium isn't extremely difficult, but protective gear is needed or one runs the risk of getting poisoned.

Storage

Refined criolidhum needs to be kept circulating when in use, otherwise the criolidhum in it will separate out and build up in unwanted places. Usually this just results in reduced potency, but can also lead to 'explosions' similar to colossi screams.
When not in use large amounts can be stored without circulation, but must be slowly acclimated to movement or risk explosion themselves.

Significance

Refined Criolidhum is typically used to power mecanical and electronic devices.
While it was intended mostly as a power source, it is also used in some medicines, such as Criosynth and Crioine.
Another side product of refined cryolidhum is the glow it gives off. The pipes used to distribute and circulate it are often made of glass and used as light sources. Small storage containers often double as lanterns as well.

Rarity

Common enough that everyone in a large city has access to it, but not so common that those on the outskirts of society can easily obtain it.
