"Sacred relic, in a perfect state of conservation. The hand shakes gently when it considers it necessary, secretly articulated by ethereal muscles and tendons. The bell that it's holding warns the wearer of the nearby presence of a mystery.
After all, no bastion is safe from the tenacity of the truly curious."
Given in return of the Severed Hand (found in the Desecrated Cistern right before the door to the fountain, slide under the floor on the opposite side below where the corpse is. Requires Nail Uprooted from Dirt to reach). Give the hand to the statue in the Lake of Silent Pilgrims to receive the relic. To enter the frozen realm, interact with the fountain in the middle of Albero.
With the Hand equipped, a somewhat discreet chiming noise will play when the Penitent One is standing near a secret (such as an invisible wall which can be destroyed to reveal a new room).
Lore
"... As soon as the atrocious earth tremor was heard, they knew something dreadful had happened. They searched for their master in the deepest parts of the cave, where they were met with a gigantic dust cloud that extended far beyond their eyes, and even though they called the name of their master, there were no answers. Days went by until the cloud cleared and they could face the devastating consequences of the landslide, feeling hopeless, but suddenly, amidst their tears, they heard a faraway sound."
Trivia[]
- If the player has the Hand of the Fraternal Master equipped during the third Crystal Challenge featured in the Strife & Ruin update, the relic will make chiming noises in the first area of the challenge (where the player is located when they enter), but there are no hidden location to be found.
