{{Infobox plant|name=Glaenith|gloss=light-stone|type=Minerals|grown=Mined in the mountains; Clearhold is one of the largest exporters|used_for=Ground fine and sealed into a Kwlei, where it glows for months|cities=[[Clearhold]] · [[Stormharbor]]|lexicon=Glaenith}}'''Glaenith''' is the light-stone: the only known mineral in Teraell that does something, with no equivalent in our world. It is mined in the mountains, ground fine, and sealed into a Kwlei — a glass sphere — where it glows for a number of months and then fades. When it fades the globe is opened and refilled, which is the whole economy of the thing: cheap to buy, and then never done paying.

It cannot freeze, cannot starve, and cannot be neglected until it dies, which is why [[Stormharbor]] uses nothing else. A flame is a poor thing on that coast, and a Kwaenith cannot be blown out. The coldest city in the world lights itself with the one thing winter can never kill. [[Clearhold]] mines it, exports it, and keeps its own Kyvlaem at an altitude that should not permit it, by careful attention.
