After the incidents with the rebels and the loss of Lydika, Syvil has
spent most of his time holed up somewhere and keeping out of sight. But
on the third day he emerges and can be seen walking into the Lodge of
Light. He spends that day in meditation, dedicating it as a time of
thanks for the miraculous rescue. Once the moon has passed its
highest point he gets up and staggers out. He returns at dawn; carrying a
red hot metal trinket that glows in the gloom. And as the sun peeks
above the horizon he comes to stand before Cain... This... This is for you. As thanks, as a reminder of the bond we share and as gift of hope; for the sun to rise anew. And
he hands over the scorching hot metal; it is a cross in the shape of a
flaming sun on a metal chain. While chain seems not to have been
recently made the metal crucifix is indeed just out the smithy and so
hot it leaves marks on the leather of Syvil's gloves. And yet, when Cain
takes it in his hands, it is quite cool to the touch; though a haze of
heat can be seen rising between his fingers. On the back, around the
hole in the middle is inscribed: Tolo na Naur - "Come to the Fire" I have asked my Lady to place her blessing on whoever wears this, may it aid you as you did me. And see; the inscribed words blaze with an ember red and
for a moment it is as if a fire burns in the circle and the metal again
glows as if red hot but without warmth, for it will not burn those of
good, but rather smite down evil.
