The listing, Big ol' Natural Sapphire - 39.20ct. - OPAQUE clarity has ended.
This is a Natural, not synthetic, OPAQUE, very inclusive Blue Sapphire.
It's been Faceted and is not cylindrical. It is disc shaped, as you would find inserted into a Vampyre Queens heart. It's sitting on a U.S. quarter and is about 4x the thickness of said quarter.
Ancient folklore suggests that the discus Sapphire is the source of the vampyre's immortality and super human strength, and by cutting the Sapphire from the heart of a vampyre and taking possession of it, a mere mortal could transverse the vampyre's power and unearthly beauty upon themselves.
After the Greek and Latin church divided, the blue Sapphire encrusted throughout the church had taken on a certain supernatural quality unexplainable by the residents of the town. It had come to pass that burying a Latin body in the Greek church would not decompose, and soon after, those bodies had risen from the pyres to terrorize the towns people; especially the young and beautiful, soaking up their lifeforce and beauty and storing it in the Sapphires around the near East.
There has never been any proof that vampyre's were blood suckers or bat morphing sub-humans who die at the instant of sunlight or garlic.
It is true, however, that a vampyre invited into a mortals home will have free reign of the females in the home while the males muster in a state of catatonia.
Pathological vampyre's must pick up locally.
