Before Ves attended the Circle of Mota's auction, he only discovered two spiritually-reactive exotics.
He dubbed them P-stones and F-stones. He deliberately named them in this boring and undescriptive fashion in order to obscure their true purpose.
Even if a cultist of the Five Scrolls Compact heard mention of a P-stone, the crazy fellow would probably dismiss it as a stupid name for a random exotic.
Naturally, adopting these bland names also made it difficult for Ves to communicate their value and applications to others, but that wasn't a problem to Ves.
So far, only Lucky knew the most outside of Ves himself, but that was slowly changing.
He'd been dipping his toes into expanding his circle of trust by letting Nitaa watch over him as he worked. Even if he didn't speak out and explain about spirituality, she probably picked up some clues about the remarkable nature of the materials he prized so highly.
