Protector

A story is behind this weapon of Pagan. When the Theurgist Veras visited a village, Trolls raided it, and began eating the children. But one mother defended her child, holding a knitting needle and crying to Stratos for help. Stratos transformed the needle into a weapon, and the Trolls were slaughtered. Veras took the weapon back to Argentrock Isle, where its properties were discovered: it protects its wearer, thus the name Protector. The weapon was safely put away on the island.

Having read the book with this story, the Avatar searched in the catacombs under Argentrock Isle, until he found a closed off building. Opening it with a spell, he found the Protector. It is unknown what happened to it after he left Pagan for Britannia.
