Athin is a blue algae that grows in freezing waters. Its location however can make it particularly difficult to harvest requiring aid. First one would have to find a spot where snow and ice do not block vision into the waters below. Should athin be located then the real dangers come into play. If the ice is too thin it could break beneath the harvester’s feet causing them to fall into the freezing water. Those who manage to find a hole with which to enter the water might then lose their way down in the darkness, unable to find their way out. Or perhaps the harvester fails to taking precautions with heating before entering the water and then freezes in the cold winds once they’re out.
Effects on use
The reward for gathering the plant is worth the risk, as athin is one of the best materials out there that is fireproof. Many who carry around or make alchemist fire will keep some athin on them for safety precautions. It even makes a great cooling lotion. It'll cool the skin that it touches but if too much is applied this can result in a light frostbite. It also tends to leave behind a blue hue where it touches.
