DESCRIPTION
Melanchite is a deep indigo crystal found in the cold misty cliffs and twilight groves of Condoriah, often near ruins marked by celestial alignments. Its resonance is subtle but vast—echoing not outward, but inward. Considered the rarest and most reclusive of the Godsblood Crystals, it pulses gently in the presence of unresolved emotion, buried memory, or destiny unfulfilled.

Favored by Solarborn Deep Seers and Concordian visionaries, Melanchite is often affixed to meditation lanterns, suspended in pendulums, or etched into oracular mirrors. It aids in farseeing rituals, dream-walking, and reflective rites conducted during the planet's rare lunar eclipses. However, its use comes with a spiritual cost: it brings clarity, but not comfort—amplifying memory, foresight, and sorrow in equal measure. While immensely powerful in visionary roles, it is a burden for the unwary, and a weight the wise must carry with solemn purpose.
