Etymology
The crystal was for many years not named, due to Archmund not knowing the true power it containted.
Its current name was given by Obelus, and comes from the Japanese 症 (Shō), meaning disease, And 天 (Ten), meaning imperial or heavenly. Together the literal translation is "Imperial Disease Crystal." After studying its nature, Obelus chose this name to represent the corrupting power that it gives the wielder, which seems to deteriorate their mental health over time.
