Offering Bowl

The Offering Bowl is located in the Abbey Grounds, southeast of Agatha's Altar. Players may need to progress past a certain point for it to appear. 
==Usage==
Place a Book, Wand, Bowl, Knife, or Necklace in the Offering Bowl and use a Word of Power to receive a reward. The item will be lost in the process. This can done once per day, and only at night.
==Rewards==
The rewards depend upon what type of item was used, its Rarity, what Word of Power was used, and the phase of the moon. 
The Book, Wand, Bowl, and Knife always reward the player with an Arcane Key. In addition, each of these items have a bonus reward of Gloss if the correct Word of Power is used. Other Words will still work, but the player will not receive Gloss. Sacrificing an item at the appropriate time will increase the gloss awarded.
The Necklace only gives Gloss, and the reward is the same regardless of the Word of Power used. However, the amount of Gloss produced by the Necklace is double that of the other items.
Each item has four tiers of Gloss rewards, which correspond to the Rarity of the item. The amount of Gloss received also seems to be based on the player's Arcane Level, and exact values at each level are not yet known. Values from 50 to 300 have been observed.
The current moon phase may be observed in the upper-right corner of the map screen.

==Library Texts==
There are several documents in the Library that give hints as to the correct Words of Power to be used with certain items and the ideal moon phase.
Item 	Document 	Text
Book 	The Book 	As she falters, open the book and offer onto her the knowledge of things remembered.
Wand 	The Rod 	When she has turned her face from us, only the wand can reveal her hidden blessings.
Bowl 	The Chalice	In her full glory, humble yourself before her and present a chalice pure to drink of her blessings.
Knife 	The Blade 	In the time of growth, lest she grow too proud a flash of the Blade to rend, to break, and call her blessings down.
Necklace	The Pendant	Through our earthly baubles are but a poor reflection of her celestial beauty, they are precious to her and will earn blessings no matter when they are given.
