Anarith

These minerals are among the rarest rocks in the world of Thalas. Even the smallest fragment of this rock contains more archane energy than anyone could produce through metamorphosis in a lifetime. These fragments began to be studied at the end of the Second Age, and their study has continued for over five centuries to this day.

Properties

Material Characteristics

Material is colorful with moving aspects of Archana in it. It often resembles diamonds, sapphires, and other precious gems protruding from stone. Beneath the clear crystalline surface, red-orange veins can be seen, through which Archana flows, adding an otherworldly brilliance to its appearance. It is smooth, yet with sharp, angular shapes, giving it a crystalline, almost geometric appearance.

Physical & Chemical Properties

The material itself is cold like stone to the touch. However, beings with sensory abilities can detect powerful pulses of Archane emanating from it. The crystal is typically smooth with angular shapes. Anarith, in its pure form, is nearly indestructible without the aid of Archana or advanced techniques, making it a substance of immense resilience and strength.

Geology & Geography

The material is found deep underground, with its abundance increasing the further one delves beneath the surface. It is most commonly discovered in the lowest and most dangerous depths, often near magma chambers or in treacherous caverns. Many believe the planet's very core is composed entirely of this substance, a theory that adds to its mystique and immeasurable value.

Origin & Source

According to legend, this material originates from the primordial plane of existence of the ancient gods, crafted by Laris himself. Scientists believe this stone to be the very essence of the universe's creation, a fragment of its primal foundation.
