Ashenite

Being grey like ash, it is not hard to see why this hard grey rock is called Ashenite.

Though it may lack the naturally glossy, aesthetically appealing look of polished Moonspar, Ashenite is still a considerably popular stone for tables and benches in the homes of wealthy merchants and nobles alike.

Ashenite, when conditioned with the right substances, is excellent at absorbing radiant energy.

Because of this, Ashenite is used by practitioners of thaumaturgy.

Though be warned, a great deal of skill is required to activate this versatile stone.
