The Amethyst had already been shattered, there was nothing else to fight over right? Gretta dropped the fragments of the stone unceremoniously, leaving one small piece for herself.
Rhys picked up every piece of stone that fell to the floor, the stone that he had wanted and fought for to that extent had been completely shattered without form.
"Stop that, Rhys!" exclaimed Gretta seeing Rhys squatting at her feet. Rhys ignored her completely, he was still busy gathering what he wanted. "I said, stop it. Stop it!" shouted Gretta pulling Rhys off his feet.
Rhys pulled his body away from Gretta. "Do you know how valuable this stone is to me?! How could you destroy it!"
"The stone hasn't worked since I got it, the remaining power it had was completely taken by Mat!" Gretta did not have the strength to explain. "Is it still useful to you even though it has no power?!"
