Why Are There Scarlet Quartz And Dark Purple Mud In The Room?
The answer to this question can be found on the Enigmatic Page number five which players find on the table near the Scarlet Quartz. Travelers who haveexplored the snowy mountain of Dragonspinewould know that this red ore is used to emit warmth and melt some ice, but according to the Enigmatic Page, it’s actually harmful to normal people. It also mentioned that the Quartz is supposedly a product of a dragon’s decaying corps, which likely alludes to Durin,Albedobrother who fell in the mountain of Vindagnyr, which also grants it the nameDragonspine.
However, the massive lore drop exists just one line before, which states, “Its properties are very similar to the flesh and blood of Elynas,” which may mean that Elynas is another one of Gold’s creations.
The purple mud is also there for the same research purpose as the final sentence of the paragraph mentions how a similar discovery isfound within the Chasm’s filth.
