Description
"Every single Tramyarus Quarter in existence is actually a manifestation of a single coin moving backward and forward in time," Sylvin To'Laris, professor of Realm Mechanics at the Neo-Helicon College of Arcaneology, would often reply when asked about the mythical coin.
His esteemed colleague, Sa'Stevinci Oris, Grand Chronicler of the Many Worlds, taught his students about a different part of the same story: "Empires can be forged with blood... or with coin. In the case of the first Helicon Empire, it was both—coin paid for oceans of blood. It is a well-known historical fact that Tramyarus Quarters were created by the Sorcerer Xiryon, who used them to hire legions of mercenaries that ultimately put him on the throne of the first Helicon Empire."
"Iron, silver, gold—the coin can be any material you wish for," Aenea Hydraxis, Arch-Enchantress of the College, would always begin as she presented one of the few coins found on the entire planet of Neo-Helicon.
"In a pocket of a mercenary spellsword, this coin was much, much more than a prized fortune or a token of the Emperor's trust. Today, in the hands of a skilled sorcerer, it is... well, just watch," she'd often say as she drank a vial of poison, dying almost instantly, only to be brought back from the dead moments later.
