History
I'm surprised there's no mention in the article about the history of Shards. For a very long time they were a common form of currency, at least on Solclaim. This mostly had to do with Pyreals still having burden and MMD notes not existing yet (It wasn't uncommon for M notes to be uncashable due to burden issues) topped by the various buy sell tricks, I remember buying bows in Ayan and reselling them in Baishi back in the day. The only issue was burden, regardless it decreased the value of a lot of things, but Shards remained a high value item, and basically were the standard for a time. --Blage3 09:38, June 27, 2010 (UTC)
