Shimmerstone is a type of rock found on Akimu (Dagudashaag 0106). After having been exposed to the chemical oceans on Akimu, it gains a shimmering, iridescent quality that has made it popular as a building material. The iridescence gradually fades unless the rock is carefully prepared, and the way the stone is 'fixed' is a closely guarded secret. Quarrying the correct stone, which only occurs on Akimu, is dangerous and time-consuming and the exorbitant prices charged for the finished product reflect this. Nonetheless, Shimmerstone is highly sought after for up-market building projects throughout the Domain of Vland.
