The blood of the ancients is the most coveted ingredient in all of Damaris, for without it the Blessing of the King does not exist. This blessing, this fabled elixir grants those who drink it life that extends far beyond natural means. There is no higher honor in the kingdom then being granted the privilege of bidding for it. This exceptionally rare ingredient is sourced from only one creature. Humans.
