The walls turn the path sharply to the southeast. The bones of small varmints crunch underfoot with each step. Nearby, a section of the outer wall has collapsed. The rubble prevents any passage through the portal, however. You also see a death dirge, a crystal core and a breach in the inner wall.

You find yourself kneeling in a bare room before an imposing figure that appears battle-ready in worn black chainmail topped by a white surcoat with a pure white shield slung over his shoulder. As quickly as the vision comes, it recedes, and you are left wondering if you ever saw it at all.

The first thing that strikes you about the balta is the weight, which is about 6 pounds. You also feel that it is invaluable.
You sense the aura of magic about the balta. It obviously has more than one use, and it is a weapon of great power.
The balta responds softly in long, peaceful descending tones. You learn that tapping or waving the balta can activate the magic woven within.
The balta's tones become stronger and the world dissolves away. As your sight clears, you appear to be kneeling before an altar. Before you stands an imposing grim-faced man dressed in battle-worn black chainmail topped with a white surcoat. Slung over his shoulder is a shield of the purest white metal you have ever seen. The man turns to you and nods slowly as he reaches for something atop the altar. He pulls the balta from the top of the altar and balances it carefully in his hands. He gestures and utters an ancient phrase and the balta begins to glow with an inner blue light. Drained from his effort he pauses a moment, then he turns and hands the balta to you. As your hands reach out for the balta the vision fades and slowly the world as you know it returns to solidity around you.
