Amberyll
Amberyll is sap produced by the everautumn trees. In liquid form it is invaluable as it can be refined into pure amberyll, however as soon as it hits air it begins to crystalize into a hard gem-like structure. In this solid form, it is still valuable due to it's rarity, but can only be used for making jewelry.
