Covered deep within the snow of the Aurus - ancient ruins from before the time of
The Unknown hold powerful technologies and magics lost to time itself.
Auric lights are one such of these - sealed lanterns and jars with no visible opening hold a
magical light source that look similar to the green-blue
Auric lights that dance across the
Aurus at night.
How the ancients managed to capture
(or perhaps replicate) the Auric lights inside of glass is a complete mystery to the scholars that have delved into these icy ruins. It was such a surprise to them to dig down so deep and find the ruins fully lit, as if by daylight. The discovery is of great importance as it shows that there was once a time before The Unknown era where Melior once had magic. Powers such as these were thought to have been new and introduced to the world only fifty years ago during the events of
The Rupture.
Research
Scholars from across the
Jolundrian Empire have been trying to decode the
ancient Auric language for thousands of years in an effort to understand the lost histories recorded in the crumbling ruins across
Jolundria. If the glyphs of this lost language can be decoded or translated, then perhaps the scholars will be able to find some kind of written word that documents the Auric lights, maybe even how to make them.
The only specimens that have been recovered so far are so rare that they’re under close supervision for study - all other vessels in the ruins were shattered long ago.
If this ancient technology can be relearned, it could change the face of Melior in every industry and city.
Ooooo, I want one. I bet they look rather beautiful.
Yup, pretty mesmerising to watch!
