The Final Cut

<On the table before Thegren are three things layed out. The Lifeblood Gem you took from Boreghast's body, Landslide's marbled stone skin and an exquisite cloth piece that seems to be unaffected by the passage of time. Having them observed extensively, you turn to Thegren - who just stares at you with a barren expression, not that his stony face leaves much for interpretation.

This is your final test it seems. Use what you have been taught about gemcutting to cut this fiery stone into a perfect shape.>

<It looks like he stopped moving altogether.>

<The artisan inspects the faceted Lifeblood Gem. His amber eyes diligently observe every cut and edge of the sparkling red jewel. After finishing the evaluation, he hands you the gem back - before bowing down in respect.

You've passed the test! Thegren guides you to his table, eager to share his knowledge with his new pupil.>
