The Dawn Shard, the Dusk Shard, and the Midlight Shard--the only recorded artifacts of true deifacted nethicite. If Archadia was after them, it wasn't any good news at all. How much did they know about them? Were they aware of the other pieces as well? Nadeline looked back at Jaakuna. She hoped he got the message she sent: [i]Do not hand over the Dawn Shard no matter what.[/i] Despite the situation, if they got their hands on two pieces of nethicite, the grander scheme of things would turn dire. Still, she wasn't sure what to do. Obviously the Dusk Shard was here, but she was at a loss as to exactly WHERE it was in the castle. Her mind scrambled to find a way out of this but she was afraid that she simply didn't know a way out of this. She looked to Ixion, speaking slowly, "[b][color=fdc68a]The Dusk Shard is proof of the Dalmascan lineage. Only the members of royalty would know where it is, though I would wager it would be somewhere here in the palace.[/color][/b]" She looked briefly at the fallen king.
