Heartstones and Soulstones
Heartstones:
Heartstones are the crystallized essence of the Zalnduu. When they are little they are buried up to their neck in the earth and a very painful ritual is preformed that crystallizes their soul into their birth stone. They will exchange these in their marriage rituals. Having your Heartstone refused by someone is considered a disgrace. Essentially they have rejected your very being. The Heartstone resides in the chest of each Zalnduu next to their heart, hence the name. A Zalnduu can cough it up at will, and if it is ever broken the Zalnduu will die instantly.
Soulstones:
Soulstones are mirrors of the Heartstone but they are usually given to family members, close friends, and mates. Unlike the Heartstone if a Soulstone is broken there is no consequence. However, they are still a treasured item. Depending on how the stone looks depends on how the person is doing. See below for Definitions of the states
