This was fun

            They're sitting on the tourmaline gemstone boulder/vog. Can see it's been hacked at and chopped by many a people over the centuries, but still is a very impressive item. Imagine what it looked like when it was first discovered. All the dark areas are tourmaline, fairly appears to be a very thick layer in places over the boulder, and extends down under the earth. I pawed some earth away along the base and checked. The earth all around it is filled with schorl crystals. Wish I could dig it up and clean it up to see it in full.
