Principle
Blue crystals master gravitic balance.
- Effect
- They can lighten or intensify mass, subtly shifting local gravity fields.
- Application
- In living hosts, blue‑crystal filaments can awaken during transformation to alter apparent weight.
Starswords
Anchored by blue crystal.
- Myth
- The Starswords were nearly immovable unless their wielder was chosen, the blue crystal within them “anchoring” their weight.
- Reading
- Selection wasn’t strength alone — it was resonance with the crystal’s gravitic will.
How Annastara’s Flight Works
When Annastara transforms, blue‑crystal filaments awaken throughout her stone form, especially along the wing struts and membranes.
- Activation
- Veins of blue light flare across her wings as crystal‑laced stone resonates with gravity itself.
- Apparent Mass
- To observers, “stone should not fly,” yet her adjusted weight is comparable to flesh and bone during flight.
- Lift & Sustain
- Her wings catch air like a bird’s; the gravity‑bending effect sustains glide and enables short powered bursts.
Risk
If her gravitic resonance falters mid‑flight, her body reverts to uncompensated stone mass.
Consequence: sudden loss of lift and catastrophic fall — a collapse “like dead stone.”
Lore Tie‑In
- The MoRoc whisper she is “stone made sky‑light”, unlike their kind bound to earth.
- Humans, witnessing her flight, whisper Skyborn in fear and reverence.
“Blue… always blue. The crystals never choose lightly. First the blades, now the child. Do you not see, Vear? She is a fulcrum of balance itself.” — Elias
