Amulet of Balance

The Amulet of Balance is an item appearing in.

Description
It is written in the scripts of the Xenkan Monks, that this amulet is worn by the Champion of Balance, when one of those is needed in times of great need. Wearing it would signal to members of the Ophidian civilization the authority the champion holds. Without it, many will doubt the validity of the claim to be the Champion of Balance.

Wearing the amulet and then using a Serpent Gate will teleport the Avatar and the party 400 years into the past into the middle of the War of Imbalance. Normally, the Amulet would need a week to charge, but with the Silver Seed being planted, resulting in the Tree of Balance, the Amulet can be used at any time desired to travel into the past and back to present. 

History
The amulet was used by champions past for less than a handful of times. However, when a Champion of Balance was needed the worst during the War of Imbalance, the amulet did not find its champion and faded into history, though it would still fulfill its purpose in a strange twist of fate. Many years later, the monk Karnax discovered the amulet and gave it to the Avatar during their meeting on Monk Isle, believing it was the hero's place to be the Champion of Balance of which history spoke. Using the amulet on a Serpent Gate, the Avatar was transported to the past, ensuring the amulet would fulfill its purpose due to a time-loop. The Avatar mastered the challenges of the past, effectively saving the world from destruction in the War of Imbalance.

It was only thanks to this amulet that the inhabitant's of Serpent's Fang stayed friendly towards the Avatar and gave the hero to vital help for the quest.
