Money

From Mizahar Lore

While Mizahar relies heavily on bartering, each location has its own set of currency. Traders, however, have developed a means of traveling with magic infused gems that are lightweight and serve as universal money in whatever region they happen to be journeying through. These 'Mizas' are rare to come by, but good in any region throughout Mizahar. There is an extensive Price List available for people to browse to get a fairly good idea of what things cost around Mizahar and what the value of these coins are. Miza's themselves are made from various gemstones according to what season it is, availability, and if they are being minted in honor of an occasion. A person with a fist full of miza might actually have a colorful handful of rimmed stones.
