Origins

FAFO took off his necklace. It held nine slots for pearls, all now filled. It hummed softly as mana flowed through the item. The necklace appeared plain, with a sky-blue color and wooden sockets. So far, he had been unable to ascertain its exact purpose but knew it was linked to the abandoned temple on the seventy-seventh mountain peak.

"This necklace took me three days to unearth. It might be linked to a quest, but I'm not sure how to activate it," FAFO mused. He wanted to partner with Meerz on this mission. The man had helped him complete the item, even if unintentionally. As a historian, FAFO theorized the necklace required two people to activate. It couldn't be just any two people, as it hadn't worked before. Something about Meerz or himself must have created the necessary conditions to start the quest.
