Fire Opal is an ultra-rare, precious gemstone used to create the Core of Destruction. Forged by Vulcan during the early days of Arc-Nyx, fire opals possess a natural ability to store extraordinary amounts of elemental power. Today, Fire Opals are used as extremely trace, molecular ingredients in power cells such as batteries.
It is known that a gram of pure fire opal can store as much energy as the global energy output in Arc from 1995 to 2020.
History
Fire Opal has always been a sought after gemstone ever since the dawn of humanity on both Arc and Nyx due to its deep elemental energy reserves. During humanity’s battles with the divinities, tiny, microscopic fragments of fire opal were weaponized against the divinities.
The most famous example of the Fire Opal being used as a weapon against the divinities occurred during Magnya Ullisca’s final battle. Wielding his Fire Opal-enchanted greatsword (blessed with elemental energy from Vulcan), the energy concentration became so great during his swing that it caused spacetime to rip apart for the first time in Arc-Nyx history. This not only paved the way of divergence between Arc and Nyx, but it also created an age of humanity and divinities’ discovery and progress towards transcending spacetime and travel into The Multiverse.
