Legacies of Distant Reverie (Relic)

The Legacies of Distant Reverie are a set of three powerful magical artifacts from the continent of Ahlus.

## Description

Much of what was known of the Legacies before their discovery was attained from a book recovered during an expedition that passed through Five Fields Farm. The Legacies are a trio of relics that are more powerful when placed and used in conjunction with each other. One grants notable illusionary abilities, two in unison can link the minds of those in their vicinity, while all three combined appear to blur the lines between reality and the Plane of Dreams, known to some as Dal Quor.

This power does not appear to occur without cost however, for spending too long within their influence puts the user at risk of some of the darker horrors that linger at the heart of the Plane.

## Research - Eldur's Artifact

### Completed by Zareyl Arkenviir

*The outer casing of the Legacy is cold to touch, the warmth of the moisture upon the fingertips of the researcher leaving streaks of condensation on the smooth surface. The pattern beneath appears not painted and shaped by hand, but rather it shimmers like the night's sky, a void of blue-black speckled with points and silver, yellow and white. Regardless of how the Legacy is turned, the stars do not seem to change position, fixed as they are. A quiet whistle seems to emulate from the central cavity and lighter objects such a parchment or loose threads find themselves slowly drawn towards it.*

*Your sleep is filled with dreams a stride apart from any that you have experienced before. Surroundings immediately familiar form first, a world rolling into existence as you peer across the horizon with grassland plains, thick and lush forests, the echoing sound of the Lotus Run to the east. Whittengrove moves slow, held in a halycon haze, but your imagination sinks deeper into the trance. Towers of stone and glass, metal and wood rise and fall at your whims, melting away when your fancy passes, only to grow once more when your attention returns. The taste of a hundred meals sprawls across your tongue, each perfectly balanced with the others, the flavours complementing those before and after with increasing and intoxicating intensity and complexity. A serene bliss settles as words of joy and celebration echo from your memories - sultry whispers and elated cheers alike - bringing wave after wave of contentment.*

*You awake fully rested.*

*When attuned to one of the Legacies of Distant Reverie, you gain the following benefits:*

*- Increase your Wisdom and Charisma score by 1, to a maximum of 22.*

*- You learn to speak, read, and write Celestial & Deep Speech.*

*- You can utilise the Legacy to cast the following spells, using the magic contained within in place of your own spell slots:*

*You can use an action to expend 1 or more of the Legacy's charges to cast one of the following spells from it, using your spell save DC: Disguise Self (1 charge), Illusory Script (1 charge), Silent Image (1 charge), Major Image (3 charges) or Hallucinatory Terrain (4 charges).*

*You can also use an action to cast the Minor Illusion spell without using any charges. The Legacy has 5 charges, and regains 1d4+1 charges at sunset.*

## The Battle of Manifestation's Return

Having recovered all three Legacies, Eordemos Lightvale used the artifacts to open a rift to the Plane of Dreams large and stable enough for Hadar to make their escape into the Prime Material Plane. After the battle was brought to a close by a combined force of heroes, the reforming light of il-Yannah gifted the recovered Legacies until Zareyl Arkenviir, who promptly departed for Dal Quor alongside Liadove.
