In real life, that’s oil. In Dune, it’s spice. What is it in your world?

    I’m Buddhist, so I’m answering this question from my real-life standpoint:

    Authentic Realization of one’s Ultimate ( original awareness ) Nature.

    What could be more precious?

    Given that ALL of one’s unconscious-mind’s mechanisms exist to block that from happening, to protect unconsciousness’s Eternal unbroken dominion, what could be more difficult to earn/obtain?

    All the distractions in the world, “helping” one to NOT earn one’s deepest profoundest Truth…

    All the profits that cease, should one get anywhere in self-realization…

    You simply don’t need any external resource, for there to be a most-precious-resource, you know?

    I was just about to post a question asking for suggestions for something I could use like this for my world, and of course I find this question from a week ago lol.

    I might post it anyway just to revive the conversation in other, similar communities. It’s a useful MacGuffin.
