Its story
A small, silver-framed rose-quartz pendant hangs from a fine chain. Its cloudy pink center holds a thread of warm gold light that pulses in time with the wearer's heartbeat. Hairline cracks slowly spread through the stone as its borrowed magic wanes.
Lore
Called the Amulet of Minor Health, this imitation of a renowned life-giving amulet offers only the humblest protection: a sickly wearer is raised to ordinary human endurance, never beyond it. Its warm glow has comforted desperate patients, but healers warn that borrowed vitality should never be mistaken for recovery.
History
Maelin Voss created a handful for patients in a remote mountain infirmary, hoping to give them enough strength to travel for proper care. One pendant was later sold as a miraculous cure by a dishonest merchant, and its exhausted wearer exposed the deception.
