A Strand of Existence! If Akiol could get his hands on it he'd be one step closer to completing his set of five! With each strand Akiol learned something new about Aura. Perhaps this one will hold a clue to helping with his condition!
Approaching the relics Akiol skipped by many of them with his eyes glued to the strand. As he was just a few steps away he stopped. This was for two reasons. The first was his sense, there was a number of defenses put into place for anyone who tried to take any of the artifacts present.
"So this is what you're here for?", the second was the voice behind him.
The old wizard who had appeared as a hologram had appeared in the flesh. Stroking his long beard he looked at Akiol with a hint of curiosity in his aged eyes, "I've been keeping a close eye on you. A part of me wondered what goal a blatant cheater had in my Athenaeum."
"There was consequences after all.", Akiol sighed and turned around.
