This magical Brandberg Amethyst Crystal is eikin. He sparkles inwardly with the presence of faeries and glows with rainbow colours, which is no surprise as he is a lightning struck crystal. He has a large surface scar and the lightning mark circles a beautifully defined key which makes me wonder if the strike was the reason this key crystal separated from its host. The base of this crystal was shorn - likely during the storm but he has healed quite nicely - a smooth, frosty seal creates a new second termination. This one is a mystical being who promises to reveal his hidden secrets and magick.
