from the last of the tooth and claw quests: xerix gives you a lesson by handing you a memory crystal that shows malgavinal lunus fighting. Then tells you that they are often very old because the way to create them was lost to time.
Here's the dialogue from that quest, dug out of my chat logs.
[09/27/08 04:08:48] Xerix tells you, 'Seems to me you handled that job rather well. I trust they didn't give you too much trouble? Excellent.
I have a gift from the client for you, but first I have something to share with you. This is a memory crystal. The secret of making them was lost long ago, alas. They hold stored memories which may be relived again and again. Through it, you will see the sights and sounds of ancient days. They are rare and delicate, but so much more effective than the scribblings of ink on paper used by naka. Prepare yourself...'
[09/27/08 04:08:48] Xerix holds the ancient memory crystal out to you. Peering in to it, you begin to relive the razing of the human kingdom of Barasavus, hundreds of years ago. Seeing General Lunus in action is both thrilling and inspiring. His prowess in battle may never be surpassed, but you can certainly learn a few things from watching him in action. It truly is a beautiful dance of death.
I wonder what would have happened had someone been using memory crystals at the fall of Draak...
If that were the case, give them to Tagath and let's get to rebuilding the university there so Brysmendrik can quit being a depressed old set of luggage waiting to happen!
As some of you will soon find out, there is only one dragon in all of Istaria who still knows how to create memory crystals... His identity should be fairly obvious.
Obviously, it could only be the oldest dragon in all of existence!
*looks around for Hraefn* OuO
XD

I'm gonna take a random guess and say Vladtmordt. You know...otherwise known as Vladtmordt the Chronicler. Big ancient dragon that used to live on floating island but now lives in a cave just a stones throw away from it....Quote:

Memni the lasting embers crystal guy is my guess.
Intriguing remark, LaughingOtter. :D
* Khemarius - Khemarius is a Lunus scholar and archaeologist who has made an important discovery in the ruins around Kirasanct. Although Khemarius isn't someone you'll be meeting in Delgarath, the knowledge he passes to the Dragons of Istaria will prove crucial while exploring the Labyrinth!
DUN DUN DUUUUUUUN!
Good guesses, but none correct. Takora gets a cookie for guessing Khemarius, but I'm going to be a brat and make you all wait to discover why. :p
So, three wrong guesses means this dragon's identity isn't as obvious as I thought. Here's a hint: a dragon who shapes a memory crystal would be called a ______.
Balennos the Crystalshaper!!! : P Well your hints makes sense now, because he was gone when the ancients fled to the other prime, and returned then.
Oh a cookie! *noms*
Ding-ding-ding! :)
Have another cookie.
Does this mean crystalshaping will become something that can actually earn experience??????
No such luck there... it will remain as is.Quote:
