Wailing Redstone

Type of Material: Gem

Acquired By: Mining (30+)

Rarity: Uncommon

Details: Yurrova is a region marked by constant conflict. Some say this conflict has bled down into the very bones into the land, creating such oddities like the Wailing Redstone. A deep scarlet gem fractured with black impurities, the Wailing Redstone is obtained mainly in the Morandi Deep Mines, though there have been some cases where the stone has been found in other areas. A pretty gem, outsiders will often buy this gem for jewelry or adornmanet. However, a true Yurrovan knows better to wear such a stone.

Other Information: What gives the stone it’s name is the intense sound the gem release when it cracks. Sounding like the screams of men, women, and children being attacked, the Wailing Redstone is responsible for many old miner’s tales. The stone is not fragile enough to crack by simply dropping it, the gem must either be crushed or thrown with force to break. When it does break, however, the sound is more than loud enough to draw attention or provide distraction for anyone in the area.
