|The more I study sand mastery, the more I see connections to the Starcarved of Darkside. The sun invests some kind of power into the lichen on the sand, similar to how the particulate cloud sends out a weekly pulse that invests power into outour starmarks, even if only some few chosen seem to be able to access that power.

== Prerequisites ==
It is unknown how someone gains starmarks, but only a few are chosenable to access the power.{{book ref|ws|part=ars}} Those who gain the power must first be shown by another Starcarved, possibly in a testing process similar to how the Diem finds acolents that have the ability to master sand.{{book ref|ws|part=ars}}

Starcarved are charged by weekly pulses of light and Investiture from [[Taldain system|Ridos]].{{book ref|ws|part=ars}} There are several different colors of StarkmarkStarmark. Some applications of starmarks allow the starcarved to make razor sharp blades or create a shield that can withstand bullets.{{book ref|ws|part=ars}}
