Luxon beacon

The  is a relic from the Xhorhasian Empire. This very powerful magic item had been stolen by the Dwendalian Empire and was in the care of the Soltryce Academy in Zadash.

Description
This cannonball-sized dodecahedron had handles on two sides, and emitted a dull undulating grey glow.

When Caleb cast Identify on the object, he found the magic contained within was alien and of a level of understanding outside of what the spell could provide. As he focused deeper on it his brain began to open up into another space of what seemed to be an expanse of an endless infinity of nothingness.

Thuron claimed that the Beacon allowed Xhorhasians to live many lifetimes. Thuron: "The beacon is part of our culture. The beacon allows the rebirth.

Molly: The rebirth of what?

Thuron: Of our people."

History
Thuron stole the Beacon from the Hall of Erudition in Zadash as part of a detailed plan from the Empress of Xhorhas. It was taken from him when he was killed by the Crownsguard in the Sewers. While the Crownsguard were carrying it off towards the King's Hall, Caleb used magic to steal the Beacon and Nott created an illusory version of it that she made disintegrate in midair.

The Mighty Nein later bought a lead lined box to hide the beacon within. They stashed it inside Jester's haversack.
