Flat-bottomed ruby

When the party broke into the Valiant Morgen Trading Company Kaarst Branch in the night of 14 Thelliea, Anrel used his Chime of Opening to unlock the door into Irann Rhogar's office. On his desk was a fancy desk lamp, a half rolled map of the Roughspun Coast, and an impressive, cut ruby with a flat bottom.

Vichthart realized that looking through the ruby allowed the writing of Irann Rhogar's journal to be easily discerned. They later learnt that was because it was written using devil blood ink, which normally only devils can see; however, this ruby allows the ink to be seen by anyone.

Before learning about the properties of devil blood ink, Vichthart tried to use the ruby to check for anything else that had been hidden from normal perception. He tried this elsewhere in the Kaarst Branch, and the next day when exploring the bedroom of the Nothics in the Acropolis of Kereskaa. However, he discovered nothing new on either occasion.

Appearance

The flat-bottomed ruby catches the moonlight in a very pleasing manner, and the colour of it is slightly too apparent for the level of darkness at which the party was exploring the building.
