The Lithoform core is powerful and dangerous artifact created by the founders of the Makindi empire on Zendikar.
Description
The lithoform core is a multifaceted purple gemstone the size of a melon. It is the last one of its kind in existence. The Kor Planeswalker Nahiri believes that the power of the core can stop Zendikar's Roil forever. Jace Beleren theorizes that it is channeling Zendikar's power itself, and Nissa Revane sees it as a threat to Zendikar's current flora and fauna.
History
Finding the key
Nahiri asked for Nissa's assistance in searching for the the core in the Skyclave of Akoum.[1] When they entered the skyclave's heart, they found ancient kor runes covering every surface, every inch of the stone walls, floors, and ceiling. On the dais in the very center of the room, in the heart of the heart stood a small tile, glowing like a star. This wasn't the core she was looking for, but merely a key. The runes told her search for the core itself in the Murasa skyclave.
Using the little bit of the core's power stored in the key, Nahiri was able to partially restore the skyclave and to stop the Roil's influences for a while. However, the effect apparently absorbed life from organic matter. When it killed an elemental summoned by Nissa, Nahiri thought is was worth the cost. For this, Nissa broke up their partnership.
To Murasa
Nahiri hired Akiri and Zareth San to accompany her to Murasa.[2]
Finding the core
When they finally found the core in the Murasa skyclave, the trio was set upon by elementals.[3] Using the artifact to defend herself, Nahiri killed Zareth in the process. Realizing the danger of the core, Akiri threatened to drop the artifact over a cliff. Using her lithomancy, Nahiri used a hedron to petrify Akiri, take back the artifact, and then push Akiri over the edge, apparently killing her.
