- | **Belequel** /bɛliː'kwɛl/ (norte /'nɔːrtɛ/, noarte /'nwɑrtɛ/ in [[bukk]]) is a rare metal, known for its extraordinary density and mass. It is the heaviest element on [[Ahldorae]], and its extreme hardness and robustness makes it difficult to work and shape. It's melting point is the highest of all the elements discovered, melting at 3,512 °C. It is usually toxic to mammals and humans in particular, especially when its hot, although individual tolerance varies. | + | **Belequel** /bɛliː'kwɛl/ (norte /'nɔːrtɛ/, noarte /'nwɑrtɛ/ in [[bukk]]) is a rare metal, known for its extraordinary density and mass.

- | Although the amount of belequel in known deposits qualifies it as possibly the rarest metal on the planet, due to its high density and typically minuscule amounts required, belequel itself is not expensive. What's expensive is transporting and working belequel, which is almost exclusively done on the Laeooy Coast. Belequel forges are also setup near Lake Grajoon. Bahria belequel deposits have been confirmed, but have not been actually mined. | + | Although the amount of belequel in known deposits qualifies it as possibly the rarest metal on the planet, due to its high density and typically minuscule amounts required, belequel itself is not expensive.

Laeooy Coast is the sole producer of royal bronze, with the city of Jegin specializing in the creation of custom fully belequel weapons. Both Featherwing and Priol were made in Jegin. | Laeooy Coast is the sole producer of royal bronze, with the city of Jegin specializing in the creation of custom fully belequel weapons.
