Taper Of The Frozen Flame

You find a very interesting item in a recently acquired magic tome.

While flipping through the pages of a recently acquired supposedly demonic magic tome, you#re largely disappointed with your findings. However, one artifact mentioned in this so-called catalog of demonic artifacts stands out. Something called the Taper of the Frozen Flame. This candle is said to be inexhaustible and on its wick burns a cold-fire. A ritual mentioned in this tome explains that the taper can be used to multiply a user's power over cold by a factor of a hundred This could amplify a relatively powerful person's cold manipulation power to a near unimaginable level.

This book hints at the location of this artifact. If your understanding of the riddles found on these pages is correct, then the artifact rests deep under what is now known as Grandville in Oranbegan ruins.

You could set off to obtain the Taper of the Frozen Flame for yourself.

Alternatively, you could destroy it, as it is far too dangerous to leave for someone to find.

VILLAIN: ???

This artifact's potential isn't missed by your keen eye. With it you could...well the possibilities are nearly endless! Plus, ot's best to snatch up that artifact before someone else does. Should this fall into the hands of the unworthy, who knows what would happen.

  • Take the taper of the Frozen Flame for yourself!

After interrogating Thesaedes he reveals that his plan was to make several copies of a tome that detailed the power of the Taper of the Frozen Flame and litter them throughout the Rogue Isles.

They planned to use this power to cover the surface in a perpetual winter.

Debriefing

The Circle of Thorns was intending to lure villains to their lair to harness their energy to use the power of the Taper of the Frozen Flame. Not only that, but you were attacked by Polar Shift, who was also after the artifact. Your gut feeling was right, that artifact needed to be destroyed. After defeating Polar Shift, she seemed to come to some sort of realization and snuck away in tears.
