<p><b>New page</b></p><div>'''Dragonglass''', known to the maesters as obsidian and to the [[children of the forest]] as frozen fire, is a volcanic glass with a singular and vital property in the world of ''A Song of Ice and Fire'': it is one of the few substances known to kill the [[Others]], the ancient cold creatures of the far north.<br />
<br />
== Properties ==<br />
Dragonglass is black, glassy stone formed where fire and rock meet, brittle yet capable of holding an edge sharper than the finest steel. Blades and arrowheads of dragonglass shatter easily but cut cleanly. Its great significance is that a dragonglass weapon can slay an Other, which dissolves into cold mist when struck, where ordinary steel is useless against them.<br />
<br />
== Sources ==<br />
The richest source of dragonglass in [[Westeros]] is [[Dragonstone]], the volcanic island seat of [[House Targaryen]], beneath which the substance is said to lie in abundance. In ancient days the [[children of the forest]] used dragonglass blades and gave dragonglass weapons to the [[Night's Watch]], a custom long forgotten.<br />
<br />
== Importance to the Watch ==<br />
As the threat of the Others returns, the value of dragonglass is rediscovered. A cache of dragonglass weapons and a horn is found buried at the Fist of the First Men, and the rangers of the [[Night's Watch]] come to understand that this ancient stone may be the realm's best defense against the coming [[Long Night]].<br />
