Sun Crystals are the miracle that make most forms of technomancy function on Talsidias. Sun Crystals are said to be fragments of the Tesa system's sun that rained down on the worlds in the solar system during the creation of the planets. Sun Crystals are not terribly uncommon on Talsidias and Coriath, but the difficulty comes in refining and cutting them.
Sun Crystals are a glowing golden orange color, and their size and purity varies greatly. Poor quality Sun Crystals are ground up and used as ingredients to the "sunpowder" that enables the Guns on Talsidias to fire. Sun Crystals power everything from Airships, Starchasers, City Lighting systems, Magi-Rails, to Warforged. As such Sun Crystals are extremely valuable in the Borderlands where the frontier is still very unsettled. In the Sovereign Core they are still expensive but not nearly to the extent they are in the Borderlands.
Wars have been fought over Sun Crystals that have led to the ruin of many nations so prized are they.
