Crystal Springs are as set of natural springs in the north of the Kingdom of Nyrond.
Description
Crystal Springs is a set of natural springs covering an area of about fifteen square miles or so, where the water flows from a series of small rocky outcrops. They are the source of the Duntide River, and located astride The Stone Road. The Many springs bubble from subterranean aquifers to the surface here, , and where they do the rock formations tend to be brittle, almost glassy blue-veined quartz. The rock is of little use, since it is so brittle, but surprisingly it is weather resistant and has not eroded over the centuries. Such a strange geological formation has been thought to have magical origins. Intermittent and erratic dweomers of a mixed kind can be detected here, and vary with the phases of the moons Celene and Luna. Below the strange crystal formations, a network of chambers and caves are said to hold magical and mon- strous secrets in their calcified chambers. Little is known of what lies therein. There are several militia bases with 60-200 soldiers within five miles of the Ssrings.[1]
