A Cloud Kingdom Classic Riddle
 
From Indy 2008
In the first place, something you should know,
It was said to start a tale of woe.
Now its eyes are sometimes said
To gleam from fallen blocks instead.
Sometimes fatal its cool embrace,
Sometimes deadly its pointed taste.
A healer's staff is tightly wrapped,
A charming way to earn your pay.
(answer is one word)
Your guess:
Take my guess exactly as typed
I'm not sure of the spelling
