	The four special [[materials]] gathered in the forests of the Empire are mysterious and complex to gather. [[Materials#Iridescent Gloaming\|~~iridescent~~ gloaming]] can be gathered from cocoons, but they must first be located and gathered. The viscous [[Materials#Ambergelt\|ambergelt]] must be collected carefully from the natural production of trees which is difficult to predict. While [[Materials#Beggar's Lye\|beggar's lye]] is relatively easy to create, the beggarwood tree from which it is manufactured resists efforts at cultivation. Even more obviously, [[Materials#Dragonbone\|dragonbone]] must be carefully sought out where it lies beneath the soil amid the roots of trees.

The magic of Spring is useful for creating uncontrolled and unpredictable growth, but with the magic of Night a forest is not so much persuaded to produce extra materials, as to collaborate with the harvesters and gatherers to help lead them to valuable substances that might otherwise be lost.
