Borax is an unremarkable white stone which can be found in large quantities within rock salt and in small quantities within gypsum.
Real life[edit]
In real-life, borax is used as powder to either protect wood or is used as a flux while forging iron among many other uses (borax is a great aid for hot-forging two metals, for example it is needed to forge "damascus steel").
