Cloven Crystal

The Cloven Crystals are magical items that resemble an amber cat's eye. The Crystals are critical to releasing Uk'otoa, acting as keys to its confinement. It rewards those who use Crystals to free it with control over water.

Description
The has an amber-yellowish color. It has striations that refract light around it. At one end, there is a pointed oval line carved in about three inches across. The Cloven Crystals in Fjord's possession are two of the three known crystals for Uk'otoa. The Cloven Crystal Avantika deposited on Urukaxl is the third. With all the crystals deposited, Uk'otoa can be released to rule the Lucidian Ocean once again, just as it had done in ages past.

In the subterranean tunnels under the Labenda Swamp, the Mighty Nein found a Cloven Crystal resting in a pool of water. Fjord went to touch it and immediately entered a dreamlike trance, during which he saw a vision of his mentor, Vandren, standing over a body, thrusting the Crystal into his chest, and summoning the same falchion that Fjord wielded. Fjord also thrust the Cloven Crystal into his chest. After this incident, the falchion appeared to have a Cloven Crystal resting within it.

Captain Avantika reveals that she has a tattoo on her neck that resembles a Cloven Crystal. She also shows Fjord that she has a Cloven Crystal resting in her right palm.

Captain Avantika deposits her Cloven Crystal in the Temple of the False Serpent on Urukaxl and is rewarded by Uk'otoa with the power to control water.

After failing to find the third Cloven Crystal upon the weckage of the Tide's Breath whilst exploring the Diver's Grave, Fjord later discovers and absorbs the Cloven Crystal within the lair of Dashilla

After the Mighty Nein defeat the Deep scion and Chuul guarding the ruined temple located underwater at the Gravid Archipelago, Fjord deposits one of his Cloven Crystals at the location and is rewarded with the power to control water. Uk'otoa also gifts Fjord a vision of the third and final temple's location.
