Origin[]

Amphion and his brother Zethus were sons of Zeus and rulers of Thebes. When creating the walls of the city, Amphion played his lyre, a gift from Hermes. As he played the rocks followed behinds him and set themselves into place.

Effects[]

Strumming the lyre's strings will cause construction or repair projects to complete themselves. As the notes play the parts will assemble or reassemble themselves.

The user must continually strum the strings until the project is finished or the materials will stop mid-task.

Collection[]

Reclaimed from Warehouse 2 along with many other artifacts.

Can be used in conjunction with the Hippie Drum Circle. When the drums are placed in a circle, and the user plays the lyre within that circle, the artifacts will create an invisible dome of peace that will repel aggressive outside forces. As long as the user keeps strumming the lyre the force field will hold.
