+>//“An unknown number of agents from an ancient cult of heroes played a pivotal role in the events that took place here, Little is known of their nature, and so we must refer to them simply as ‘the Instigators.’ Let us see if we can divine the true scope of their contribution to history while we look for clues to the secret of Gulpax’s power.”// - Eklar - The Scrying Pool (GS-Epilogue)
+The two are able to study and record the events of the great battle as the pool reveals a series of images to them. The final image reveals [[gulpax|Gulpax]] hiding an artifact below the pool in a a secret chamber. It is a necklace with a golden skull. It radiates with magical energy.
+>//“They called me a fool but now I have proof. There are artifacts, objects originating from other planes, buried throughout Ulos. The ancients feared their power, so they wasted their potential.”// - Eklar - The Scrying Pool (GS-Epilogue)
+As the elder, Eklar takes possesion of the necklace and places it in a [[durgolium|durgolium]] sack. [[zerith|Zerith]], having heard a voice in her head, turns and murders Eklar for the necklace.
+>//Zerith pulls out a knife and peers down at Eklar. “Throw me the artifact,” she demands. When he refuses, she begins cutting the [[rope|rope]].//

Eklar uses that moment to scale the last few feet of the wall and charge toward her with his staff, but Zerith quickly plunges her knife into his chest.// - The Scrying Pool (GS-Epilogue)
