Lantern of Servitude

Prompt - Hollow

A grotesquely ornate lantern that used to belongs to Alga who is also known as ‘Witch of The Astray’. Alga serves as a guardian of the White forest in the far north region of Argos Tundra. The forest is said to hide a gateway into the astral sea and a place where the border between the material plane and ethereal plane becomes obscured. Many unfortunate creatures and humanoid become charmed and lured into the maze-like tree lines and become lost or died. Alga uses these lanterns to retrieve those unfortunate individuals or guide their lost spirits to either bring them back to their loved ones or release the spirit outside the forest.

These lanterns were originally called ‘Soul Shepherd’ and can only be made by Alga. But one day, one of them was stolen by Ilkus The Soulmonger, a newly emerged necromancer, who uses it to capture and enslaved unfortunate souls for his arcane research. Although it’s later retrieved by a group of adventurers, due to Ilkus’s horrible action and terror to the nearby population, the lantern becomes known as the Lantern of Servitude. Before he was killed, Ilkus manage to create several inferior copies of this lantern, unfortunately, their current location and owner are still unknown and currently under investigation.

This one is based on an old character of mine featured in an artbook titled 'Book of 31 Witches' which was published independently by my circle, Krōma

PS: Since we're near the end of the month anyway, the files will be sent out at the end of this month, just in case I suddenly come up with another item during this weekend.

PS 2 : Thanks to Druyii for spotting some game mechanic hole in the stat. I hope it's fixed now~
