Relics & vessels

The everlasting fire

A carved cypress-wood frog that burns forever without being consumed and does not burn Kahu. Such idols were forbidden to leave their Old Moaan sites. The Mink was hired by an unknown buyer to intercept it, but the relic converted him before the crew stole it from Pirate’s Cove.

Its visions have shown Kahu a faceless flame in an execution square, a world consumed by holy war, and a fiery rotund figure. Whether it is divine revelation, warning, or manipulation remains unknown.

The Cathayan ironclad

An enormous, armored broadside vessel driven by a fire-powered steam core. The “General That Pacifies Barbarians” pursued the Lively Lady before a coalition assault captured it. Kahu reignited its core; Pachinko understood its mechanism but could not reproduce its alloy.

After negotiations, the damaged ship was handed back to the Celestial Empire and remained under repair in Kapikala. The Fires of Moa now intends to steal it before it sails.

Living Saint reliquaries

Every Carolingian Living Saint resurrects at a personal reliquary. Transporting three saints and their reliquaries into Moa Toa turned ordinary sailors into custodians of strategic and theological weapons.

Dawn Light

A holy symbol received by Pachinko from the Migrant Fleet, worth sixty gold and potentially meaningful to Pachinko’s Carolingian origins.
