Mineral MacGuffin/Quotes

"Maresa: Could you just for once go looking for an ancient elven gemstone that's been left out in some close-by, cheerful spot? For that matter, I'm tired of chasing after gems. Why is everything a damned gem or crystal? Araevin: Durability. The sun elves of old knew ways to fashion crystal that remains almost indestructible today, thousands of years after it was cast. We've been chasing after crystals because that's the form in which magical power and knowledge from elder days was preserved."
