An Archaic urglaes reliquary allows a character to teleport cross-realm to a preset location once every 28 days. It was first featured in the fourth PlayApartTogether GIFTBOX between May 20 and June 9, 2020. According to the GIFTBOX messaging, "the reliquary is a magical artifact from the Rift." The reliquary is account bound, and thus may be used only by characters on the same account.

Verse 1:

A shadowy haze obscures your vision.  All you can see is darkness.

A rush of cold air causes your vision to end.

3rd Person Messaging:
The urglaes reliquary seems to respond to the magic of {PlayerName}'s song.
{PlayerName}'s eyes turn into black pools for a moment.

Verse 2:

Your vision darkens, and the image of a twisted landscape is before you.  Dead trees that seem to wiggle like worms beckon you.  As you move through the odd forest, you lose your footing and begin to fall through the ground.

You are startled as the vision ends before you hit solid ground.

Verse 3:

You find yourself in a pool of ooze and climb out onto dry land, which is parched from the burning sky.  The ground forms a mouth and whispers to you.  You cannot make out what it is saying, so you lower your ear and hear, "I thirst for your soul!"  You pull back and try to run away, but the ground shifts and you're swallowed by the open maw underneath you.  A sinister voice whispers, "And now you're mine."

You fall deep into this world's gullet as the vision slowly fades.

{PlayerName} looks terrified.

Verse 4:

As you sing, you feel a faint resonating vibration from the urglaes reliquary in your hand...

You close your eyes and open them, finding yourself surrounded by gems.  They are everywhere.  Traversing through the gems feels impossible, but you manage to find your way to a clearing.  A bright light shines down on a a pedestal.  On it is a reliquary, just like the one you're holding.  You glance down at your other hand and you notice you're holding an Eye-of-Koar emerald.  Must have picked it up when you were climbing through gems.  You feel the urge to infuse your spirit into the reliquary, and as you do, the emerald shatters.  The ground underneath you becomes unstable, and the world begins to collapse.  You feel your existence being shredded as if you're just a memory and you are being erased.  And suddenly, you are.

The vision dissolves.
