Crystal of Light Delivery Service!

[Mysterysword]

Thanks, so now the question is where the Crystals come from... Are there Crystals of Light that aren't aspected to any element? From what I've seen in Ysayle's Dragonsong War Tale, even her own Crystal is aspected to Ice.

More specifically, I was always under the impression that the Crystals of Light, which I faintly recall are specifically described as being manifestations of Hydaelyn's power (paraphrasing), were basically formed from Hydaelyn herself, and then sent out to us, which is why I'm questioning her delivery services. (We grab them out of primals and random monsters?)

But is there anything that says otherwise? That the Crystals of Light aren't actually part of Hydaelyn herself, and existed as separate items floating around until we picked them up? Or at least, what exactly are they?
