When found buried in the earth, these glowing, hot-to-the-touch pieces range in size from a large head of lettuce to as small as a pebble. When worked and encased in fey glass, a Moon Shard can protect against night winds in a radius of 30 feet, glows like a lamp in the darkness, and protects those in its light from being surprised. However, the Hordes of Night can see the light of a Moon Shard a mile away and will draw enemies to the travelers who dare venture forth at night. Sleeping outside at night is still dangerous, but sleeping in the light of the Moon Shard will allow a save to avoid the Darkness taking over the dreamer.
