CampaignInvestigationCampaign 4, Episode 2

Azune and Occtis discover that the magical signature detected on Thjazi was produced by a deliberately planted ceramic forgery rather than Thimble’s genuine escape glyph.

Event overview

Overview

TypeCampaign incident
WhenCampaign 4, Episode 2
StatusForgery confirmed; creator unknown

During the final hours of Thjazi Fang’s Farramh, Azune searches the hidden seam where he detected conjuration and illusion magic before the execution. He removes a cheap ceramic object that is physically careless but magically precise. Occtis determines that its apparent conjuration is itself an illusion, confirming that the object was designed to imitate the exact signature Azune expected to find. The discovery establishes deliberate deception within the failed rescue, but Episode 2 does not identify who created or planted the forgery.
