Excerpts from a burnt
journal.

I have solved the quandary.
It seems you have to make
a special clay by grinding
the appropriate ingot with
the appropriate sunshard,
and work it with a small
block of magic clay adding
some water to make it
workable.

To make an energeian you
need the distilled essence
of an element. I have
shared the secret of making
these essences with the
freetide, and they took off
with it running, even to
the point they have sworn
me with secrecy on it.
Though it pains me, I will
not write it down as I will


respect their wishes, so
that they will continue to
respect me.

The iron clay will make
dull energeian and uses a
vial of viscous mana along
with the essence and the
appropriate sketch. Iron
being less conductive than
the rest only works with
the basic elements of ice,
fire, air and earth.

Copper clay makes murky
energeian and uses a vial
of cloudy mana instead of
viscous mana. Copper will
work with the basic
elements and also growth
and decay.

Finally silver will make
foggy energeian using a


vial of clear mana. This
foggy energeian can also be
used with the same essences
that work for murky
energeian, as well as with
disease and poison.


Once you have worked your
energeian on the pottery
wheel, you will need to
fire it. Firing an
energeian is not as simple
as some firing and you will
find that it takes some
skill, but at the same time
you can learn to do it
almost without failure if
you have a high enough
skill. Along with a firing
sheet of a quality
appropriate to the
energeian, you will need
another essence of the same


type you used in the making
of the unfired energeian as
a glaze that will lock in
the power.

You may notice when you get
the sketches that they make
odd amounts of energeian.
This is due to how well the
clay shapes and the
interior thickness needed
for each. The iron clay,
though made with the least
conductive material is the
best at being shaped, while
the copper resists shaping
and some of the material is
wasted resulting in the
worst yield of energeian.
The sketches will
accommodate for these
differences, and once you
have fired them you will
have the amount that works


best for each type of
energeian.
