While not yet the gold standard of the High Council, her craft was becoming a mark of status. Miranda had previously shared a vision with Avery: elevating the Donovan smiths to the level of the Ancient Bloodlines. This jade set was the vanguard of that ambition. Avery had inspected the prototypes weeks ago, giving her nod for the final carve. The jade was of the purest "Wolf-Eye" grade, making the jewelry worth a small territory of its own.

Tharion set to work, using his knowledge of alchemy and the arcane to forge the Bloodstone Amulet. The creation of the amulet was a complex and dangerous process. Tharion began by selecting a rare mineral known as Bloodstone, which was said to have the ability to store and amplify energy.

It was a mineral that was difficult to find and even harder to work with, but Tharion was determined to succeed.
