Vernal Crystal

The Vernal Crystal is a unique gem.
== Characteristics ==
The Vernal Crystal can be used in one's inventory to join it with the Rod of Seasons.
It adds Magicka Damage to the Rod's melee form and Shock Damage to the staff form.
== Location ==
The Vernal Crystal is located at Hag Rock Redoubt. It is found in the Hag Rock Redoubt Ruin area inside a Mossy Strong Box.
The box is in the northwest corner of a room between an alchemy lab and large chest. It also contains the Note on Crystal.
== Background and Inspiration ==
The Vernal Crystal was added with version 6.6.0 with the Rod of Seasons and the other Season Crystals.
The Vernal Crystal carries qualities of storms to represent the spring season. JKalenad had difficulty finding effects to represent spring in the effects of the Vernal Crystal. He ultimately chose to represent rain, given the symbolism of spring being a time of renewal and new life, and rain being a vital part of that renewal.
The word "vernal" is an adjective meaning "of, relating to, or occurring in the spring" and is used in terms such as "vernal equinox" and "vernal pools."
The crystal is based on the green symbol on the Rod of Seasons in official artwork, as well as the symbol on the Spring Tower in the Temple of Seasons from Oracle of Seasons.
