Blood of a Goddess
The moonstone is a gemstone that in its rough unpolished form is indistinguishable from its other feldspar cousins. However upon the expert skills of jeweler it is polished to reveal a unique shine that appears to glow from within the mineral itself. It is popular in jewelry of all kinds for this attribute.
The Legend
It is said that previous to the death of She Who Was Beyond All Names this stone did not exist in its current form. That it was only after a blinding flash in a noon day when all magic ceased to work as it once did, that these stones came into being. Some say that when she died her blood poured out upon the world in that flash of light and infused these stones with bits of her essence. The unique glow a residual effect of her magic to forever remind the mortals of what they had done.
As such they have become popular items for moon cultists to wear. Such a strong connection should have seen the destruction of these stones of close scrutiny of those wearing these items. However their rarity and beauty have made them popular jewelery among the upper class of all races, cultures and faiths making them a popular and profitable trade item.
