Deer Crystal Novels & Stories

"Kiri examined it yesterday. She said it's safe to open, but the contents are... significant." The box was warm to the touch, its surface covered in symbols Rex recognized from the crazak nest. It opened smoothly at his touch, revealing a small crystal sphere nestled on a bed of what appeared to be living moss. The sphere glowed with an inner light that shifted between gold and purple hues. "What is it?" Rex asked, hesitant to touch the object directly. "Kiri called it an essence pearl," Lacey explained. "Apparently, they're incredibly rare—formed only when certain magical creatures willingly surrender a portion of their life force. The crazak queen created this from her own essence."

His other hand, which he had kept behind his back, was now lifted, and Emma couldn't see clearly. "This is a token of my heart!" Draco opened his mouth, his thin lips parting before quickly closing again. His tense gaze was fixed on her, and Emma felt slight flutter in her heart. Her eyes landed on something in his hand. It was a pendant in the shape of a crescent moon. Emma looked closely and grew more astonished. The gemstone was pure green, exuding an ethereal and gentle aura. Nestled in her palm, she caressed it lightly as though touching a beautiful woman's smooth, glossy skin, giving the illusion that the gemstone was alive. She concluded that this pendant was undoubtedly priceless.

"Let's help me find the grimoire." After passing the long hall, they reached an antechamber and stopped in their tracks. One wall was ruined, and chill outdoor air flooded in. But the other walls! They were encrusted with minerals of every hue. Rose quartz crystals like pink diamonds, spiky red rubies, forest green malachite, and peacock coal were clustered side by side with topaz, tourmaline, amethyst, garnet, and opal.

I saw Draco still swimming around until he dove and grabbed a necklace. I could tell from afar that it was a purple stone—an amethyst. He probably didn’t see anything further than here, so he went back for the necklace. If the citrine I was holding was one of the treasures, then it also meant Draco’s amethyst was also one, as Adessa mentioned that gemstone. So, I had no choice but to hope that we were both right with our choices. I finally reached the end, and when I finally surfaced from the water, I took in a deep breath, filling my lungs with fresh air. I was still trying to catch my breath when someone approached me and told me to take off my shirt and my underpants.

But after years, he finally realized why the woman would leave them, leave him. The obvious reason why everyone was escaping from him was his unnatural hair. While the majority of people had dark or light hair, blond, red, or grey when they get old, his hair has a very strange tone that nobody has in our world. The closest colour that could be suggested would be white pearl but it was very different because his hair shone with a thousand fires. It was visible even in the extreme darkness, that's why he was never afraid to sleep alone in the night. After many comparisons, he and his father had concluded that his colour was what is called diamond. It was a sparkling, magnificent crystal colour

His pale pink hair did not even compare. Somehow the seawater had made his hair extremely frizzy and coarse. “Bai this will look good on you,” Wen held up a small red hairpin. “It matches your eyes.” He took it from him and glanced at it. The hairpin was very simple. It was made out of brass and at the end there was a small red crystal. It was a used spirit crystal. He had seen a lot of these crystal’s in his mother’s treasures before. After the spiritual energy inside the spirit stones were used up, they leave behind these very transparent and reflective crystals. Humans seem to love those and called them diamonds.

The dragon had been placed on top of a towering pile of crystals and gems, and a closer peek into the store revealed a whole counter-top of crystals, and, when I squinted, I could see tiny, individual labels for each of them. “What are you looking at?” Kathrena called, and there was an antsy bite to her tone. “Just this shop,” I said, watching her roll her eyes in her reflection, cast in the shop’s glass windows. On the other side there was what looked like a sacrificial altar, maybe, with a wide wooden platform, surrounded by white pillar candles, and an intricately carved knife placed against it. It didn’t look like it was made of metal. In fact, if anything, it looked as though it was mad

"Thank you, Aunt Cleo. This means a lot to me." The pendant Aunt Cleo gave Aqua was nothing short of mesmerizing. Crafted from sterling silver, the pendant was shaped like a delicate crescent moon, symbolizing the mysterious and potent nature of Aqua's powers. At the center of the crescent nestled a large, oval-cut gemstone that was uniquely clear, like a drop of captured morning dew. The clarity of the stone made it particularly special, as it reflected Aqua's emotional state, changing color with her mood. Intricate filigree work adorned the crescent moon, with tiny symbols and runes etched into the silver, each representing protection and strength. The craftsmanship was exquisite, making i

I was not expecting any one of them to guess what type of dragon she is. “Yes and no. Ty is even rarer than that. She is a black crystalline opal dragon.” I replied. There were several gasps heard in the room. Dray, Drake, Killian, and Silas boxed her in as Dazriel stepped in front of her. I smiled, watching them protect her like that. I also knew it was unneeded. Dray reached behind him to grab onto her as Drake stepped closer to her. I knew that Ty was frightened as I could smell the fear coming from her. What wasn’t expected was Polaris, Orion, Laryssa, and Zarlon to make a wall in front of Ty to protect her?

I recognized a bright blue one as my birthstone, Tanzanite, but I looked to Dez to hopefully identify the rest. “Moonstone, to help bring you clarity,” he said as I faced the opal, white-coloured one his way before turning it to the reddish-brown coloured one with stripes running through it, “red tiger’s eye, to help ground you and offer calming energy,” I turned to the last one, which was a deep green colour with red marks on it, “and bloodstone, to help you stay true to yourself, and draw from your own personal strength.” “It’s… it’s… it’s perfect,” I stuttered out, “I don’t know what I’d do without you Dez, don’t leave me, ok?” The tears were streaming down my face as he brought me into h
