ITEM UPDATES
Discover the Boots of Bearing, Revenant’s Brooch, and Wraith Pact, all-new items of power that might shift the balance of any fight. The resplendent Boots of Bearing can be traced to the very foundations of Stonehall’s imperial legacy, fit perfectly to carry the Emperor’s message of unity into far-flung lands. Rumors of the Revenant’s Brooch have persisted for centuries, and in some cultures the legends of its cursed owner are celebrated still — though few believe such mythical origin stories are actually true.
