What is "The World of Glass"? Analyzing the new lore (SPOILERS)

I found these on the first day of NEXT and couldn’t work out what they might be.
If you ‘pluck’ them they go dark and you get mordite so I presumed they were some sort of egg or biological crystal.
Didn’t feel like ‘killing’ them so I’ve left them alone ever since.
With that as my impression, I’d be disinclined to think of them as ‘dead’…as touching them is what kills them.
