Elegant Snow Globe is a quest item in Stygian: Reign of the Old Ones.
- Looking into this globe captivates the eye with a constant parade of vivid, changing images.
Description[ | ]
This item is unique in that it acquires a different state when it is observed in reality versus when it is observed in the dreamlands.
Reality[ | ]
As if eternally frozen in a waltz of exalted solitude, the graceful posture of this emerald lady makes this otherwise simple optical trickery a mesmerising thing to behold.
Dreamworld[ | ]
The changeless state which this keepsake was in when you last saw it, now morphs into different compositions with each time you cast a glimpse into its miniature world.
Content[ | ]
This item can only be properly observed in the Dreamlands (specifically, in Thalarion).
“What were you looking at just now?” the woman asked. The lust of but a moment ago was cooling for a serene interim, for which the fatigue of her body was responsible.
“Nothing,” the young man replied, diverting his gaze to the window where clouds of snowflakes gently descended from a grey sky. The woman knew where he had been looking. His eyes had been fixed on the sagging flesh beneath her chin, the undeniable evidence of her advancing years. However much time or expense she spent on grooming or clothes, time fulfilled its duties without discrimination or mercy.
A fierce desire to reverse this fate rose within her. Wouldn’t everything be perfect if only we could remain young forever?
Obtaining[ | ]
This item is obtained from the Masked Servant at the start of the quest The Dreaming Baroness.
Notes[ | ]
This item has no use in the waking world. It does have a use in Thalarion, where it can be touched to get a glimpse into the Dreaming Baroness' past. These hints can be used to assist the character during the quest The Dreaming Baroness.
