The [[Seal of Justice]] can be found on the way to the top of [[Avechna's Peak]], in the Cave of Justice. The Seal of Justice is a platinum disc, approximately the size of a small shield. Runes are etched around its rim that glow with an inner power. In the centre of the shield is the image of an open hand with the palm facing outwards. Disturbingly, the hand occasionally moves, sometimes slowly shifting perpendicular and bobbing as though weighing an invisible burden. The seal floats in the air of its own power and thrums with a lifeforce that makes the very air around it blur.

Revision as of 00:00, 19 August 2024

The Seal of Knowledge can be found on the way to the top of Avechna's Peak, in the Cave of Knowledge. The Seal of Knowledge is a silver disc, approximately the size of a small shield. Runes are etched around its rim that glow with an inner power. In the centre of the shield is the image of an eye, the iris of which is a deep violet that gleams and shimmers. Disturbingly, the eye watches everything around it, occasionally blinking and focusing on that which comes before its gaze. The seal floats in the air of its own power and thrums with a lifeforce that makes the very air around it blur.

The Seal of Knowledge, like all of the Living Seals, is composed of and empowered by the divine essence of the Vernal Gods; in this case, the Seal belongs to D'varsha, the First.

When the Seals are weakened, the mortals of Lusternia participate in a series of challenges designed to restore their power. In the end, just one mortal holds the Staff of Ascension and becomes a God. During this event, mortals participate in the Challenge of Knowledge, a brutally difficult quiz on the mythology, history, and geography of the Basin.
