The Seal of Life can be found on the way to the top of Avechna's Peak, in the Cave of Life.
The Seal of Life is an alabaster 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 a beating heart surrounded by an aura of white light. Disturbingly, the heart beats as regularly as a clockwork, pumping life giving blood to some unknown body. 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 Life, like all of the Nine Seals, is composed of and empowered by the divine essence of the Vernal Gods; in this case, the Seal belongs to Dionamus, the Healer.
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 Life, where denizens of the realm are afflicted with a variety of awful diseases and only the person who finds and heals the most of them can be considered the winner.
