The Circlet of Tehanar
A mystical artefact, the circlet of Seeing, also known as the circlet of Tehanar was crafted by the heretic sorcerer-priestess Tehanar herself. It was said to grant the wearer clairvoyant abilities. Its current locations are unknown and many a myth exist around its whereabouts.
Tehanar’s heresy
From a young age, Tehanar showed great potential for the manipulation of magic. At only eight years of age, she was sent to the Temple of Calveyr in Kozzicg to study everything mystical and become a sorcerer-priestess. She finished her studies at age sixteen, about six years earlier than average.
For many years, Tehanar served at the Temples of Niril in Zalbah-At, the capital city of Kritmorc. For a time she was even a close companion to the Oracle of Nir. Tehanar was greatly interested in the lost city of Qar Albar and the disappearance of the three deities, Dinmeyr, Calveyr and Queyr. She believed that the Oracle would potentially be able to communicate with the gods with a little aid.
Years of research and hard work eventually resulted in the creation of the circlet of Seeing. Tehanar claimed to have created an object that would grant the wearer the abilities to look beyond the veil, beyond past and beyond future, abilities similar to those of the Oracle of Nir, the most holy figure to the niril religion. And that was her end. Tehanar was accused of blasphemous behaviour and heresy, and she was executed.

Whereabouts
While the people of Kritmorc deny that both Tehanar and her circlet have ever existed, for confirming her existence would be agreeing with her and that in turn would be heresy, both Kritmorn heretics and the international mystical community have a great interest in the circlet.
The main story told is that the circlet was either destroyed or locked away deep by the Kritmorn government. However, a few people believe that Tehanar hid the circlet before her execution. Since she was a close companion of the Oracle of Nir, people believe that they were actual friends. The international mystical community argues Tehanar made the circlet to relieve the Oracle of the pressure put upon them and aid them in controlling their prophetic powers. They also believe that the Oracle foresaw the execution of Tehanar and warned them. Wherever Tehanar could have hidden the circlet, nobody knows for sure.
