Cherished Fracture

Cherished Fracture

Quest Item

A powerful essence swirls at the center, desperately trying to pull the shattered rocks back together. Though the pieces seem forever broken, you sense that whatever this is, it belongs to someone-and it is precious.

“"The priests used ancient magicks to sunder Lydusa of her power, but they were not so foolish as to destroy its source completely. If only I could find that missing piece, the very fount of the lifesong itself-that is the key to everything! The pinnacle of all that I have sacrificed!"”
