Hmm, good questions! I'd say that Residue from Dominant Forms crystalize within 2 weeks maybe. And then, they re thrown about in weather and clump up, and sort of stick and crystalize together -- this might take anywhere between a month and a year depending on environmental circumstances. This is when you get a proper Crystal, which can accumulate more Residue over time if exposed to it, and then grow in power over time as well. If these Crystals aren't found, then they are lost to the environment and the earth. So, if a Crystal formed a thousand years ago or more, and was never found, it will be found in the Earth, in these mines.

The Residue is released passively. It will seem less if a Regalia is moving about in the Dominant Form. But, if they remain stationary for 2 hours, then there will be quite a bit of residue at their feet, if that makes sense.

Interesting. Is there anything that can inhibit all the umm...shedding? lol Also, what city is the Festival of Lights in? I don't remember the OOC mentioning it.
