Krytan royal locket
“It's a magical locket. It's said to always have the image of the current heir to the throne of Kryta displayed inside it. It's quite beautiful. Very powerful. And coveted.
The Krytan royal locket is an ancient, magical artifact which is said to always have the image of the current heir to the throne of Kryta displayed inside it. According to Magister Lindsay, its power is coveted, so the Durmand Priory moves it and other valuable artifacts from fort to fort on an irregular schedule to keep artifacts such as it from falling into the wrong hands.
In 1327 AE, a Priory caravan traveled from Caer Evermore to Fort Concordia with a shipment of tomes and magical items, including the locket. Shortly after arriving in Concordia, the caravan was ambushed by the Mordrem which were seeking out magic for the Elder Dragon Mordremoth throughout Tyria. Thanks to the timely arrival of Braham Eirsson, Rox and the Pact Commander, the Mordrem were fought off; however, the dragon minions had managed to drain magic from some of the artifacts. The magical signature of the Krytan locket was weakened in the assault but was not completely destroyed, and it and the remaining artifacts were transported to the safety of the Priory's headquarters for further study.[1]
