They also claim the Azurice Shrine can grow them indefinitely—if there's enough energy.<BR><BR>We've decided to believe them for now. We need crimson shards—they're the most potent—if we're going to imbue the shrine.<BR><BR>Head southeast and gather what you can.

Apologies, <PCNAME>. We need more crimson shards.
