Jump to navigation Jump to search

The sands of time are molten by the Goddess of Heat; this Material is one of the hardest on Tael.

Properties

Temporal Glass is harder than diamond and light as a feather. It is also usually completely clear. Another notable property is that this material is always warm to the touch, no matter the environment it is in for any amount of time.

Gathering

Temporal Glass can't be harvested or mined by any mortal means and is usually only foraged in the form of tiny pebbles from Tempus Peak. Larger pieces can usually only be gathered with the help of the gods themselves, though there is no real need for greater chunks, as this material is mostly used in jewelry.

Usage

Practical Use

Due to its resistance and warmth, it is almost exclusively used in jewelry crafting. It is also a critical resource in the creation of Timeless Rings.

Traditional Meaning
