Lot #1 Corsair's Crucible
Starting Bid: 5,000g
SOLD: 250,000g
Aspect: Earth & Water
The Corsair's Crucible is a stout, sea-worn jug with Limsa Lominsa’s nautical motifs etched into its ceramic surface. Often carried by sailors and adventurers alike, this jug weighs a constant 12 pounds, regardless of its contents. When shaken, it emits a faint sloshing sound, as though teasing its owner with the promise of exotic libations or practical brews.The Corsair’s Crucible is said to be the handiwork of an eccentric Limsan alchemist and former pirate, Ysbalta Waveborn, who was renowned for crafting items that made life at sea more comfortable—or at least more interesting. Rumor has it she brewed the first Crucible for a captain who found himself shipwrecked without a fresh water supply. Stories say that those who respect the sea will find the jug an invaluable ally, while those who scorn it may find the Crucible’s contents... unpredictable.Once per day, you may use an action to name one of the following liquids, prompting the jug to produce it. You can then uncork the jug as an action and pour out the liquid at a rate of up to 2 gallons per minute, until it reaches its daily limit. The jug can’t produce more of a given liquid or switch to a different liquid until the next dawn.Possible Liquids and Quantities:Fresh Water – up to 8 gallons
Seawater – up to 8 gallons
Lominsan Rum – up to 1 gallon (a favored drink among pirates, offering a bold, spiced flavor)
Fish Oil – up to 1 quart (often used for cooking or making salves)
Sailor's Tonic – up to 2 pints (a mild restorative draught that provides slight resistance to seasickness)
Seawolf Firebrew – up to 1 pint (a fiery ale brewed by the Seawolf Roegadyn, known to warm the body on cold voyages)
Starfire Tea – up to 1 quart (a special tea that calms nerves and wards off the chill, popular among seafaring Limsans)
Glow Ink – up to 1 pint (a luminous ink favored by sailors for keeping logs readable at night)
Lot #2 Recesses of the Heart
Starting Bid: 7,500g
SOLD: 275,000g
Aspect: Astral & Umbral
A very peculiar lot... One that is an extra large grimoire approximately a thousand pages long, give or take. Bound with black leather for the front board and silver leather for the back, two large wings extend from the top of the tome. The front board sports a black feathered wing while the back board seems to take the shape of a silvery succubus wing. Within, the even pages are written in a blood red ink, while the odd pages written within a semi-translucent almost pearlescent silver.Within, the context seems to elude to various ritual summoning of not only voidsent but soulkin alike. It is said that whomever penned this odd book seemed to have written the tome with the intent to have the pages read left to right; as to relate to summoning horrifying voidsent, and right to left as to summon terrifying soulkin. It is believed that the grimoire was written sometime after the Sixth Umbral Era, by a scholar penned as "Lilishe Lishe". Unfortunately, we have not been able to locate this particular individual within our records.
Lot #3 Aisifyr Waekbyrt
Starting Bid: 7500g
SOLD: 300,690
Aspect: Fire & Ice
An intriguing lot from the ancient islands of Aerslaent, ancestral home of the Sea Wolves. Aerslaent is home to brutal winters and geothermal activity that inspired the creation of Aisifyr Zwynbyrt, Roegadyn for Frostfire Battleaxe. This mammoth weapon boasts a knob and butt made of Adamantite that gives the ice formed haft and head it’s shape. The Adamantite butt radiates fire through the blade, giving the axe it’s unique properties.It is said that a legendary smith of the Fifth Umbral Era created this weapon as his people suffered. As the Age of Endless Frost descended on Hydaelyn the seas froze and the seafaring Roegadyn found themselves in dire straits. During this ice age, a Roegadyn smith ventured out into the frozen seas to find hope and inspiration for his people. He came upon a geothermal vent that vented fiery aether against the relentless ice aether that had cursed the sea. Inspired by this conflict, the Roegadyn would forge Aisifyr as a symbol of the never-ending determination of the Seawolves.Provided by The Mithral Canvas
Lot #4 Tora no Arashi
Starting Bid: 7500g
SOLD: 2.1m
Aspect: Lightning & Wind
This lot is a long pure white blade with a black 'tsuka', or haft. Seemingly relatively plain at first glance, aside from the elegant scabbard in which a beautiful reddish-purple tiger is seen prowling through undergrowth, this piece truly comes alive when drawn. A burst of violet lightning and wind danced along the blade's edge as it is unsheathed.It is said that an old soul resides within the blade, in the form of a tiger 'auspice' or 'yokai'. Slain by the samurai, Jizutsu no Aritaka, the yokai had been terrorizing a small village in Hingasahi for fortnight before it vanished only to return the following year each autumn. The beast was known to prey upon young maidens and spirit them away from the living world. Unfortunately, the missing girls were never seen again once stolen, even after the wandering ronin finally laid the great beast low.
