A note on the witches of /risu/ and gemtree production

Risuners have witches deep in their forests. They are very few in number and none of them can be found in the major settlements. They prefer to be in isolated small villages to keep their magic kept secret from outsiders. Witches are usually the de facto rulers of their respected settlements.
These witches use the power of gemstones to make all sorts of magical effects depending on the gem used. Their main method of acquiring gems is either mining or using gemtrees. To make a gemtree, one must infuse a magical acorn with a gem to create a gemcorn. The gemcorn will always grow what gem is used when infused. (Emerald gemcorn will produce emerald gemtree)
These gemcorns are then placed into the ground like any other seed and then grow like any other tree. Note that even with /risu/ plant acceleration magic, this tree takes a considerable amount of time to grow, more than a regular tree.
Gemtree farms are found deep within the caves of molerisuners and these are usually handpicked by the witch to be trusted with their care. So far the following gems have been seen used by witches and their settlements but its possible there are more
Pic rel from terraria, where i got the idea from

Carnelian- Used as a far more powerful version of coal. A single one can light up an entire settlement in a dark red color. These are placed in furnaces and last for about 3 months before expiring. Heat is enough to cook, smelt metal, and can be adjusted.

Emerald- Used for healing and plant acceleration. These are usually kept by nut growers to further accelerate the process of making nuts. Disease and injuries were healed much quickly near its presence when activated. 20 uses before expiring.

Topaz- Lights of all colors. Carnelian does this as well but topaz is much brighter. Neither have been seen used both at once as its considered a waste. Can produce different colors and is used for parties.

Turquoise- Gliding. Although risuners are not flying squirrels they have used this power to be able to glide. Turquoise must be directly infused with a risuner to allow them this power so it is only used on the witch themself or close friends. One time use. Duration currently unknown.

Grape agate- Weaponry. This is by far the most commonly used gem in /risu/ and so many gemtrees of it have been produced that it can be used fairly commonly despite its low expiration. These are used as weapons and are placed at the end of a staff like weapon. These "grape blasters" fire a small purple fireball like projectile at very fast speed. Only 10 shots can be fired before it has to be reloaded with another bead of grape agate. Top priority is placed on making sure nobody, not even outside risuners get their hands on these weapons.
