The value of the crystals found deep within The Great Wound, goes beyond the imagination of any commoner unlucky enough to be assigned as a miner in the fissure.

Everyone gets told the story of the monster of The Wound, but most laugh them off, thinking that the more experienced miners are just telling ghost stories to scare them.

Some never believe them to be true until they retire, others start believing them when they notice many miners disappearing over time.

Others barely have time to realize they are not stories.
