Blessed Branch
The rekindling of a dead pyre needs one. Not a made thing — a natural rarity of the high crags, where a hardy scrub-tree now and again bears a single branch of bright blue flowers, sometimes streaked crimson, in place of white and orange. Found by chance, like a four-leaf clover, and only near the peaks. _(S1–S2)_ — Three were won in the end from Caranthalis's tree beneath the mountain: one from the Guardian's mouth, two more cut from the boughs, before goblin powder unmade the tree itself. _(S4–S5)_ — The two meant for Drosven's Gate never got there: the Askavir carried Jamal and his branches up to the peak, and Ygva tore away all three — two from Jamal, one from Sylvie — with Sylvie's heart. Every branch is now in the witch's hands. _(S6)_
The Branded Skin
The runic hide Heyou flayed from the Umbra-warped brute in the titan's tunnels — three brands cut into the flesh to compel or empower, that glowed as the dead thing dragged itself up again. He kept it to study its runes. _(S3)_
Goblin Black Powder
The goblin engineers' three-part explosive barrels, and a satchel of the same they pressed on Heyou — payment, and the promise of more, for killing the Guardian. _(S4–S5)_
Guardian's collar
A heavy collar with a broken chain, taken from the Guardian's neck — the tether that bound the beast to the Sacred Tree. _(S5)_
Seed Cones
Tight oval seed-cones gathered from the roots of Caranthalis's tree before it burned; they open only to fire. What might grow another light, should any survive. _(S5)_
Borek's Ward-Medallion
A heavy silver charm — a snarling figure ringed in metal — hung on Heyou by Borek. No key; a ward, that the Askavir might not eat him. _(S2)_
Moon Rune Jara
The rune from Sylvie's visions. Ygva's own mark. _(S2)_
The Witch's Sealed Jewelry (circlet · glassy-stone necklace · signet ring)
Locked in Ygva's rune-marked box (a moon-rune seal, her own mark) at her mountain camp: a thin circlet, a layered necklace of glassy stones, and a heavy signet ring, each with power sleeping in it. Sylvie wears the necklace; Heyou half-knew the ring's make. No one at Verrow's Span could name them — Tamber pointed to the Celsian Athenaeum. _(S7)_
Small Iron Lockbox
A keyed iron box taken from the witch's camp, still unopened; Heyou keeps it close. _(S7)_
Celsian Map
Tamber's great map: the whole of the world the party knew is a corner of it, the rest running west past knowing. _(S7)_
Pictogram Stones
Twenty-three small carved stones from the witch's camp, four laid out on a flat rock. Their order is the order of the mile-high Mountain Pictographs on the high road — a pattern Heyou recognized. _(S7)_
Askavir Heart
Cut from the fallen Askavir — a heart the size of a body, saturated with Splendor, the light once thought the gods' alone; it gives off a warmth like far sacred-pyre light. Ygva wrenched it away and Heyou pickpocketed it back and vanished with it. She wants it for calling the gods down; Sylvie is afraid to touch it. Plan: forge a fake, packed with ichor from the bird's ruined eye, to pass for the real one in the witch's hand. _(S8)_ — Pressed by an astral assassin below, Heyou spent the heart's power for one god-bright smite; it went cold and quiet in his hands, and he dropped unconscious. Now spent. _(S9)_
The False Heart
The forged decoy Heyou carried to hold out to Ygva in place of the real Askavir Heart — Sylvie's one condition on a plan she called foolish. _(S9)_
Stoneweaver pendant
Sylvie's stone-weaver focus from her Stoneheart Peaks craft: fixes a stone sentinel's attention, and binds and drives a great stone elemental — the Living Fortress. She handed it to Heyou to pilot the Fortress from hiding. _(S9)_
Otheidas Arm-Band
A metal-and-wood arm-band stamped with Heyou's own chest-sigil, found among God-King Otheidas's relics at the altars in the World Below — the same mark pressed into his wood when he first woke. He judges it might build a new being if it were ever powered. Ygva let him take it. _(S10)_
Draz's ever-upward compass
A compass that will keep to no earthly north, only to a pole straight up. Ygva reads it as pointing to Ossa, the Wanderer of the Peaks — a skyward target. _(S7, S10)_
Phasing pieces
Cut from the two dead mantises where they died half-inside stone: worn, they let a matching limb pass through rock. Too few for a whole body. _(S10)_
Blessed Branch (the one carried back)
Ygva gave one branch off the Caranthalis Altar in the World Below — traded for Heyou's pinecone-seeds, on the promise the party replaces it if her cultivation fails. A branch burned at a pyre cannot be reclaimed. Heyou phased it into the Living Fortress. Bound for Drosven's Gate's dead pyre. _(S11)_
Claw Dagger
A dagger Heyou forged from an Askavir claw (with Jamal's help) at Verrow's Span. _(S11)_ — Later held by Draz.
Blunderbuss Handgun
A blunderbuss relic Draz found among the altars; he and Heyou craft its shot (four, plus a special round). _(S11)_
Phasing Vambraces
Heyou's ancient-tech bracers that let him pass objects (the Blessed Branch) into and out of solid matter — e.g. stowed inside the Living Fortress. _(S11)_
Devouring Dagger
A fear-driving blade taken from Borek's hoard; its cuts force stress and terror on whatever it strikes. Heyou gave it to Sylvie (who was then stabbed with it by a guard). _(S12)_
Axe of Fortunus
A Tier-3 axe recovered from Borek's cache, set aside for Jamal. _(S12)_
The binding rune
A coercive mark on Draz's arm — Borek exposed it — that binds a company together and clouds what its members can remember. Who set it, and on whom else, is unknown. _(S12)_
Heyou's recovered leg
One of Heyou's missing prosthetic legs, found in Borek's hoard, cut with the sign of Brathis (three fallen stalactites in a triangle). _(S12)_
Dragon spoils
Scales worked into Draz's armor, and caustic bile-sacs drawn out and stored in the Living Fortress — taken from the night dragon killed near the old campsite. _(S13)_
Axe of Great Value
A rumored heavy axe carried by a towering man (built like a dwarf) among the spectral dwarven guardians in drowned Grithmaar Deep; Jamal shattered him and the party took it. _(S16 — the fight relocated here from the S18 record; see the footnote on the S16 page)_
Otheidas Circlet (Casper's)
A small magical circlet Draz took from the dead Casper tol-Otheidas's brow; it opened Splendor-sight in him — he now sees Splendor as light and aura. A third Otheidas-linked circlet in the story (distinct from Sylvie's). _(S20)_
Scepter of the Sacred Pyre
The scepter that powers the Celsian Athenaeum's Sacred Pyre; Dagga fetched it and put it in Draz's hands, deepening his Splendor-sight to a "symphony." _(S20)_ — Its removal dropped the compound's Umbra-bulwark; Draz jammed it back in its socket to relight the pyre, taking a lightning albatross's bolt to do it. _(S21)_
Suppression Amulet
A quartz-and-bead pendant stripped from Dean Therion Calanthe — a bidirectional magic dampener; Heyou learns to slip his own casting through it, and it swallows the deadly wards of The Stacks. _(S21)_
Stacks plunder
From the Athenaeum's vault Heyou filled a bottomless bag: draughts, arcane shards, a replication parchment (copies what it touches), half-restored relics — nearly all humming with Splendor. _(S21)_
