Hail Achaeans!

Something wonderful, something life-altering has occurred to me... Allow me to explain.
Many years ago, in my youth, I would tag along with my father when he went to work. He was a miner in Moghedu. One specific day, I remember clearly, one of the miners discovered a rock none of them had ever seen. It was a rough bluish stone. My father then tied it to a piece of leather and placed it around my neck, and declared it an official souvenir.

All my life, I have worn it around my neck. It was until several year later that I realized what it truly was.

I was meditating in the Garden of Moonlight in Tasur'ke, when I heard a voice. Seeing there was no one else present, I returned to my meditation. Suddenly, I felt a burning sensation upon my chest, and looked down to see that rough bluish stone was radiating an intense light. Abruptly, I was engulfed in a corona of bluish-white light. I sat motionles, pondering. I became alarmed as I felt the spirits of the animals move farther and farther away, until I could not even sense their presence. As abruptly as it engulfed me, the corona of light vasnished. It was long moments before I stood.

Finally, I stood. A distant voice lingering in my head, "Seek the Elements..."

Grasped tightly in my left hand, a small shimmering crystal on a leather cord.
