A crystal heart charm drained of magic. Someone must've used up all the magic inside.

 

Following Princess Cadence and Flurry Heart’s retirement, the Crystal Empire became the cultural center of the “visible” Equestria. Many discoveries were made with the increase of the student number at the Crystal Academy. Amongst those, there was discovered how to fabricate Crystal Hearts with similar effects with the original, but none could live up with the original’s strength, so it is still very important to the Empire. 

Now, the Crystal Academy sells small Crystal heart charms like this one, but they are very valuable and expensive, so mostly only royalties can afford them. They provide a small area of protection around the wearer. 

Grifix noticed that if one was placed next to an egg, the egg would completely drain the magic from the charm, and the baby grifix would turn out with a crystallized coat.
