Legacy of the Deep — Collectible Crystalpod Pattern Bundle (PDF)
Legacy of the Deep — Collectible Crystalpod Pattern Bundle (PDF)
When the seas of their homeland began to fade, the Nerethai were forced to leave their underwater palaces and cross into Oialis, a hidden world beyond our own. They left three sacred relics behind so that those who came after could find the way — if they chose to follow.
The Vessel remembers. The Key opens. The Anchor holds.
Legacy of the Deep is a collectible digital beading pattern bundle with original fantasy lore by Lady Lunar Cat. Three coordinated 3D crystalpod designs become the relics of one sea-born civilization, brought together in a 59-page English PDF with illustrated step-by-step tutorials, word charts and assembly guidance.
Deep cobalt, pale and aqua blues, white and gold connect three distinct silhouettes: a vessel finished with crystal drops, a long, slender key and a diamond-shaped anchor with a flowing blue tassel. Make one as a personal treasure, or bead all three as a collection to display together.
Digital PDF only. This purchase is for the patterns and instructions, not finished ornaments or a materials kit.
Why You Will Love This Collection
- Three designs, one story: Each relic has its own name, purpose and place in the world of the Nerethai.
- A coordinated collection: Different shapes share an intricate blue, white and gold palette, so they feel connected without repeating the same design.
- Guidance for every relic: All three designs include illustrated step-by-step beadwork instructions, a row-by-row word chart and joining diagrams.
- Details that complete the story: Instructions show the Vessel’s crystal embellishments and the Anchor’s beaded loop, crystals and tassel attachment.
- Several ways to enjoy your beadwork: Create display ornaments, decorative bag charms or a coordinated set of Christmas ornaments, with suitable finishing and fittings.
Meet the Three Relics
1. The Vessel of the First Sea
The Vessel remembers. A sculptural pod with luminous pale panels, gold ornamentation and blue crystal drops. In the collection’s lore, it preserves the memory of the Nerethai’s first homeland — its voices, radiant cities and ancient currents.
- Beadwoven body height: approximately 7 cm (2.76 in)
- Delica colors: 4
- Construction: 16 corner-bead rows
2. The Key of Oialis
The Key opens. The long, slender centerpiece of the collection, with pale blue light framed by deep blue and gold. In the story, this is the relic that opens the passage between worlds and reveals the way to Oialis.
- Beadwoven body height: approximately 15 cm (5.91 in)
- Delica colors: 6
- Construction: 18 corner-bead rows
3. The Anchor of the Far Shore
The Anchor holds. A diamond-shaped pod finished with faceted crystal beads and a royal-blue tassel. In the lore, it holds the passage steady so a traveler is not lost between tides, time and worlds.
- Beadwoven body height: approximately 7 cm (2.76 in)
- Delica colors: 4
- Construction: 30 corner-bead rows
Size note: Measurements refer to the beaded pod bodies, excluding hanging loops, crystal drops and tassels. Overall length depends on your chosen embellishments, beads and tension.
