Origin[]
The exact origins of the artifact are unclear, but the appear to correspond to the Vedic myths of Vala. The asura was slain by the Daeva king Indra. The tales say Vala's body was struck with such divine force that his body crystalized and became the many different types of gemstone found across India. The sapphires of the world were made from the energy of his eyes, and so were said to be blessed with the ability of premonition.
Effects[]
When both are held (or in their current state, worn), the wearer will experience a vision of their immediate future, or their eventual "fate". During the vision, the scene around the wearer will begin to fill with water, though this will not affect anything that is a part of the vision. What it does effect, however, is the wearer. If the user is not snapped out of the trance in time, they will become visibly wet before drowning completely
Today[]
During an investigation being carried out by Agents Felix Draco, Bri Rependata, Aden Taylor and Old Bone regarding a Mrs. Von Dichi , the agents were momentarily put out of action by Mrs. Dichi's use of an artifact. When they returned to the scene, they found her and her possessions gone, save for two sapphire earrings Bri was able to identify. Upon using them on Old Bone (whose state of undeath made him immune to drowning), it was revealed that the vision being played was that of Lord Byron composing one of his poems. This information led them to the next stage of the investigation and the earrings were safely contained to be shelved on their return to the Warehouse.
