A mysterious being called The Ledgerman is collecting Shard to practice a curious form of alchemy. The earlier you offer your Shard to him, the more resources he can harvest, and the greater deal he might offer you.
If you are intrigued by the Coinlander universe, but do not want to play during Season One, you can maximize your chances of success in later Seasons by offering your Shards to The Ledgerman.
