Trade Good
Uncommon
The salmon that live in the lake in the center of Carcassonne are coveted for their gem inlaid skulls. After collection and cleaning, these skulls are often presented as gifts during the Lapis Festival. The skulls, inlaid with naturally occurring lapis lazuli, are brilliantly blue. Veins and seams of the gemstone material creating detailed and unique patterns in the bones.
It is said, that if someone catches the salmon themselves, the seams of gem in the skull can be read as though a fortune. A single question can be asked, and when the skull is shattered the breaks and cracks reveal an answer to anyone who knows how to read the fishbones.
