Golden Dew necklace from Feynan

From the desk of Lady Winifred Jones:

Found in the fey like forests of Feynan, a land found through one of those grandly dangerous portals along the Amazon in South America, Golden Dew drops appear in the giant flora called Dragon’s Foot. A three pronged purple flower with scale like color splotches in darker purple along the sides of the plant’s stem. These plants are over 10 feet tall when fully grown and once a year, seem to weep with golden drops of dewy sap out of the center of the three petals, which curl inward and look a bit like toes with a point at the top looking ever so like a claw on each toe.

The sap is gathered and allowed to harden under water for a few days. Through this process, they turn to a stone like state, and somehow become much heavier than the sap that was placed in the water bath a few days before. Because I have quite a long and friendly history with the local winged people of this region, I am given the rare opportunity to trade with them for these precious gems. They hoard it mostly for personal adornment. Indeed, almost everyone in their villages is nearly dripping with jewelry made from these golden gems.

This necklace has been added to a necklace made with tiny glass beads one of the villages in Eastern Feynan is famous for. Their color and sparkle is second to none in the whole region.

The Feynanions attribute a multitude of “miracle” healings to wearing this gem as often as possible.
