76. Pandora's box
TV Fact
The enigmatic evil that once belonged to Pandora now calls Pandora's box home. A terrible queen ruled the land for a thousand years when a girl named Pandora unlocked Pandora's box. Upon finishing his explanation of its history to Flynn Carsen, Judson quickly closed it; nevertheless, Flynn Carsen reopened it at the Library.
Fun Fact
Originally from Greek mythology, the story of Pandora's Box serves as a cautionary tale about the consequences of being curious and disobedient. According to the myth, the gods modeled the first mortal woman, Pandora, after themselves. The thunderous and lightning-deity Zeus bestowed upon her an airtight receptacle, commonly referred to as a jar, and a dire warning not to open it. Despite the warning, Pandora's voracious curiosity caused her to open the box, resulting in a flood of evil and sorrow for the earth. Evils like disease, death, envy, and greed were to afflict humanity. Yet, the box contained a glimmer of optimism amidst the chaos. While all the sins leaked into the globe, hope shone brightly, leading humanity toward a future devoid of evil and promising brighter times. The story of Pandora's Box is a powerful allegory because it demonstrates the need for persistence in the face of despair and the consequences of our actions.
77. Philosopher's Stone
TV Fact
A Ming vase that Flynn Carsen had purchased at an auction was presented to the Library by him to be displayed with the Philosopher's Stone. Rumor has it that the stone has the power to turn earth into gold.
Fun Fact
Legend has it that the Philosopher's Stone, an alchemical artifact, can do more than just bestow immortality; it can also transform base metals into gold or silver. Seeking its ultimate power and knowledge, the Philosopher's Stone has been the object of pursuit for numerous philosophers and alchemists throughout history. The symbolic importance of the Philosopher's Stone goes beyond its physical attributes, which is an intriguing aspect of the object. Aside from its connotations with alchemy and the pursuit of money, it has also been seen as a symbol of enlightenment and spiritual development. For many alchemists, making the Philosopher's Stone was more about going on a quest for personal development and enlightenment than about amassing wealth.
78. Poseidon's Trident
TV Fact
The magical artifact called Poseidon's Trident resides in the Library. No one knows for sure what mystical effects it has. However, the artifact is likely to possess powers connected to water, thus it's reasonable to presume that these powers are located there. The Trident granted Flynn Carsen superhuman strength, allowing him to stave off an assault from Excalibur. In the first film series, Judson had instructed Excalibur to strike Flynn anytime he liked so that Flynn might practice his swordsmanship.
Fun Fact
The legendary spear wielded by Poseidon, the Greek deity of the sea, Poseidon rules the sea, earthquakes, storms, and horses with his trident, which is often depicted as a three-pronged spear or fork. It is a powerful symbol of his rule and authority in Greek mythology. The Cyclopes, a huge race with a single eye and legendary blacksmithing abilities are said to have forged the Trident in Greek mythology. Poseidon was given it, along with Hades' invisibility helmet and Zeus' lightning bolt, to use in his war against the Titans. The trident of Poseidon, according to the authorities, has the power to command the sea, summon storms, and cause earthquakes. Depending on his mood, Poseidon would often command or provoke the waves with his trident in classical Greek mythology. Poseidon brandishing his trident is a common motif in classical Greek art and literature. Shown here wielding a divine light from time to time, it is a potent weapon that establishes his rule over the sea and all its people. Even outside of its association with Poseidon, the trident came to symbolize the might and dominion of rulers and naval forces in classical Greece and outside. It was a symbol of control over the seas and the shipping lanes that followed them. Much folklore and mythology surrounds Poseidon's trident. For example, the moment when Poseidon strikes the ground with his trident, freeing the first horse from its cradle, is crucial in the creation story.
79. Prophecy Cube
TV Fact
Prophecy Cubes are enchanted cubes that have vibrantly colored markings. Using a prophecy cube, you can gain insight into what is ahead. The use of the Cube will bring about the fulfillment of any future—good or bad—that is shown in the prophesy, provided that either: someone who wasn't present during the glimpses of the cursed being interacts with them, changing the future, or an even larger potential future is shown and set in action. Prophecy cubes aren't just for people and things; they can house everything. There was a labyrinth of rooms and corridors, some of which had lethal traps, within the one Cube that could be seen in the universe. The markings on each Cube are distinct and come in a rainbow of colors. The cube that contained the prophecy explodes into flames when it is blown to smithereens. Everyone inside is okay at this point. Oracle of Delphi crafts prophecy cubes in some mysterious way.
Fun Fact
One possible meaning of the term "prophecy cube" is a conceptual or fictitious object that holds or discloses future forecasts or prophecies. To advance the storyline, a prophesy cube could be used as a plot element in storytelling. Adventures, conflicts, and revelations ensue as characters seek it out for guidance or to prevent a foreseen tragedy. The symbolism of the phrase "cube" suggests that the predictions contained within are exact and unchangeable, as they might represent stability, order, or structure. On the other hand, it might stand for an enigma or riddle, suggesting that the predictions necessitate cleverness and originality to unravel. Many themes can be explored in a story featuring a prophecy cube, including the nature of power and responsibility, the repercussions of knowing the future, the search for truth and purpose, and the nature of fate vs. free will. Although the "prophecy cube" is not based on any particular mythology or history.

80. Ruyi Jingu Bang
TV Fact
The Library is home to the Ruyi Jingu Bang, a Chinese relic. This stuff is truly enchanted. Its powers remain a mystery.
Fun Fact
Ruyi Jingu Bang, also known as the Ruyi Golden Cudgel, was supposedly wielded by Sun Wukong, the Monkey King, in the ancient Chinese epic "Journey to the West."  According to legend, the East Sea Dragon King's underwater palace was formerly sustained by the Ruyi Jingu Bang. Sun Wukong eventually retrieved it and wielded it in his arsenal. According to legend, the Ruyi Jingu Bang, a magical staff, can be made smaller or larger according to the user's wishes. Depending on its mood, it can shrink to a size that fits snugly behind the ear or swell to a size that could reach the ocean floor or even the sky. Despite its scalability, the Ruyi Jingu Bang is supposedly not very heavy. Only Sun Wukong possesses the superhuman power necessary to effectively utilize it. Its heft is a plot point in the "Journey to the West" story on multiple occasions. The staff is supposedly impervious to damage and can withstand any force. Finally, it can withstand destructive weapons and other supernatural forces. The Ruyi Jingu Bang is a symbol of authority, strength, and mastery over the elements. It is also associated with concepts of change and adaptability because of the ever-changing nature of both life and the universe.

81. Santa's Hat
TV Fact
Santa's hat is a powerful magical talisman that belongs to Santa Claus.
Modern Santa Claus holds his hat aloft as a lucky charm. After the Librarians rescued Ezekiel Jones from the Serpent Brotherhood, Eve Baird gave him Santa's hat to keep him occupied. Due to its central role in Santa's magic, the hat's loss made him more susceptible to the poison he had been abducted with and made it more difficult for him to maintain his current appearance. Wearing the headgear, Ezekiel was compelled to bring happiness and kindness to others. His methods included giving to charity, playing with kids, baking, stuffing stockings, and even allowing the pilot they had hired to return home to spend Christmas with his fiancee.
After Eve convinced Dulaque that the hat belonged to Ezekiel and was a powerful magical relic, he took it and wore it himself. By making it seem like their number one priority, the Librarians were able to manipulate him into expelling Lamia. He took the cap off his head since no amount of magic could convince him to reveal the Brotherhood's secrets or put an end to their actions.
Abilities
In this version, Santa's hat is both a physical manifestation of his character and a magical charm.
Without his cap, Santa is less protected from physical assault and poison.
The headgear gives its wearer a great sense of Christmas spirit and makes them more like Santa Claus, who is supposed to grant wishes and perform good deeds, as is seen from Ezekiel's baking and stuffing.
Just then, Santa got his hat back, but it wasn't enough to heal him completely.
Fun Fact
Modern depictions of Santa Claus, adorned with a red cap and white fur trim, are heavily influenced by Clement Clarke Moore's 1823 poem "A Visit from St. Nicholas" (alternatively printed as "The Night Before Christmas"). In the 1930s, the red Santa hat became instantly identifiable as a result of Coca-Cola advertisements. Artist Haddon Sundblom's work for Coca-Cola's Christmas advertising campaigns popularized the use of red coats and matching hats for Santa Claus. The white fur that adorns Santa's headgear is commonly mistaken for real fur, although it is rabbit or faux fur. Not only does it finish off Santa's ensemble, but it also makes him look more relaxed and festive. Traditional artwork of Santa's headwear often depicts a stocking or nightcap with a pointed tip. This design element adds a dash of personality and whimsical charm to Santa Claus's complete look. Red, the color most often associated with Christmas, is also a symbol of love, hospitality, and good cheer. The festive mood, love, and generosity of the season are all embodied in it. The traditional Santa hat is red with white fur trim and a pointed top; nevertheless, many nations and artists have their unique spins on this design. The designs, hues, and embellishments on some may differ from one another. Greeting cards, festive apparel, and holiday décor with Santa's signature headgear are commonplace all year round, solidifying its status as an iconic part of Christmas around the globe. Santa hat making and donning is a typical DIY holiday tradition.Â
82. Shakespeare's Quill
TV Fact
William Shakespeare used a rudimentary writing instrument called Shakespeare's Quill to create his plays. A limb of the Tree of Knowledge was used in its construction. The quill, according to John Dee, originated in old Arabia.
Abilities
A written word has the power to become a reality;
The quill ignites the limitless imagination of its user, serving as a spark of inspiration. Only a person's intrinsic brilliance may be enhanced.
Excalibur broke the quill, which had taken on the shape of Prospero's staff. A return to the previous state was subsequent.
As a result of its owner's emotions, the quill responds in unexpected ways. For example, when forced to resign, Shakespeare became the first fictional character—Prospero—in his rage.
Fun Fact
It was common practice during Shakespeare's time to write with feather quills. The major flight feathers of large birds, such as swans, geese, or turkeys, were typically used to make these quills. The selection was based on the outer feathers' strength and flexibility. Having a quill pen was a sign of wealth, intelligence, and understanding in Shakespeare's time. Many people, including professors, scribes, poets, and writers like Shakespeare, used quills to create works of literature that have stood the test of time. Though fountain pens and ballpoint pens have mostly replaced them in everyday usage, the quill remains a potent symbol of writing and the literary legacy of figures like William Shakespeare. Modern audiences find inspiration in Shakespeare's extensive use of quill pens in the creation of his plays, sonnets, and other literary works.
83. Shield of Angkor
TV Fact
The item called the Shield of Angkor was used by King Jayavarman to drive his enemies into the sea. The library now houses Flynn Carsen's prized Shield of Angkor, which he had triumphed over Sterling Lam in combat. Using the Shield of Angkor as a Trojan horse, the librarians were able to obtain admission to Shangri-La. How incredible this shield is remains a mystery to all. The Seven Curses of Khmer protect the shield, as Cassandra points out, but it's likely all a big farce. Memory loss, hearing loss, and thinning hair are just a few of the symptoms brought on by the curse. Â
Fun Fact
A theoretical concept rather than a tangible artifact is what the name "Shadow of Angkor" (also spelled "Angkorian Shield") alludes to. However, by looking at the context, we can decipher the phrase's meaning. From the ninth through the fifteenth century, Southeast Asia was home to the Angkor Empire and its renowned Angkor Civilization. This culture thrived in what is now Cambodia and left behind the world-famous Angkor Wat temple complex. In addition to its famously magnificent temples and buildings, the Angkorian Empire also boasted a sophisticated military. This military force was crucial for the protection of the empire's borders and its territory. In a hypothetical sense, the concept of a "Shield of Angkor" would have represented the defensive and military prowess of the Angkorian Empire. The fortifications and relative calm that the empire has maintained within its boundaries might be symbolized by it. In a symbolic sense, the name "Shield of Angkor" may represent the illustrious past and present of the Angkorian kingdom. By serving as a buffer between themselves and outside influences, Angkor Wat relics help the Khmer people hold on to their distinct culture and heritage.
84. Shroud of Lazarus
TV Fact
Any wound can be healed by placing the Shroud of Lazarus on top of it. It seems that Jeff Peppers used it for something unsaid and maybe even worse. Covering of Lazarus
Fun Fact
Despite its frequent appearance in literary, artistic, and religious works, the name "Shroud of Lazarus" does not pertain to a specific historical artifact like the Turin Shroud. This story is merely a more hypothetically extended version of the biblical account of Lazarus, the man whom Jesus raised from the dead. Famously, in John 11:11 of the Gospel of John, which is a portion of the New Testament, Jesus raises Lazarus from the dead. After four days of death, Jesus commands Lazarus to rise from the tomb; Lazarus obeys, emerging from the tomb while still wearing his burial garments. A probable meaning of the word "Shroud of Lazarus" could be the linen burial cloths that Jesus wore upon his resurrection. Some literary works have used the Shroud of Lazarus as a symbol or plot device to examine themes like faith, resurrection, and the enigmas of life and death. By highlighting the significance of Jesus' ministry, the effectiveness of divine intervention, and the qualities of miracles, the idea of the Shroud of Lazarus could provoke religious contemplation or theological discussion. Various visual art genres frequently depict Lazarus's resurrection from the tomb while he is clothed in burial clothes. The shroud may stand for the ebb and flow of existence. The burial linen of Lazarus represents both the redemption power of Jesus' miracles and the hope for a new beginning in Christian theology. Additionally, it may imply the ideals of resurrection and victory over death. There may not be a tangible artifact or historical record of the "Shroud of Lazarus" similar to the "Shroud of Turin," but the concept holds great symbolic value in cultural and religious contexts.
85. Shroud of Turin
TV Fact
The Library is home to the holy and enchanted Shroud of Turin.
Fun Fact
The linen cloth called the Shroud of Turin depicts a figure of a man with obvious wounds from the crucifixion. The royal chapel of the Cathedral of Saint John the Baptist in Turin, Italy, is home to it. Many believe it to be a medieval forgery of Jesus Christ's burial shroud and others deny it. The debate concerning the material has persisted for ages. When scientists have examined the shroud, they have come to conflicting conclusions. The shroud most likely came from the Middle Ages, around the 1400s or 1400s, according to radiocarbon dating findings from 1988. However, some academics have questioned the methods used in this study, and subsequent research has shown contradictory results. The image on the shroud is still a mystery to researchers and inquisitive spectators. There are many different creative and naturalistic explanations for its origin, but others consider it a miraculous impression of Jesus Christ. Faithful and nonfaithful alike have long been captivated by and divided by the Shroud of Turin's enigma.
86. Spear of Ares
TV Fact
You may find the Spear of Ares in the library's antiquities chamber.
Fun Fact
The Spear of Ares, a legendary weapon associated with the Greek and Roman gods Mars and Ares, goes by more than one name in mythology. According to legend, Ares used the spear, which possessed immense power, during battle. In the famous tale of the Trojan War, the Spear of Ares plays a significant role. The legendary hero Ares is seen brandishing a spear in Homer's epic poem, the "Iliad," while he engages in combat. Some versions of the myth place the spear's creation and its magical powers in the hands of the Roman god Vulcan, often called Hephaestus. Subsequent mythology and literature included the Spear of Ares, a symbol of might and conflict. Both ancient writings and artwork frequently depicted it. The spear came to symbolize celestial strength and military might because of its legendary past. Although it has no real-life analog, the fabled Spear of Ares retains considerable significance in classical mythology. Greek and Roman mythology are its sole homes, and it enriches those myths with its storied legends.
87. Spear of Destiny
TV Fact
"Whoever controls the Spear, controls the fate of the world."
—Flynn Carsen
Jesus' crucifixion weapon, known as the weapon of Destiny, was used to pierce his side. The spear was thrust into his side while he remained nailed to the cross. The spear, which possessed an indestructible power, was broken into three parts and dispersed around the world. After stealing a piece from the Library, Lana and Rhodes' Serpent Brotherhood squad found the other two. They then utilized the second piece they stole from Nicole Noone and Flynn Carsen to find the last piece. Flynn retrieved the Spear from the Great Pyramid replica after Edward Wilde and the Serpent Brotherhood attempted to destroy it.
Fun Fact
This mythological spear—which goes by several names in Christian folklore—is a spear of destiny, the Holy Lance, or the Lance of Longinus. According to medieval tradition, a Roman soldier called Longinus stabbed Jesus Christ in the side while he was being crucified. In John's gospel, the weapon is called the lance because it was used to pierce Jesus' side, proving his death. The spear and the myths around it originated from this small scriptural allusion. The Spear of Destiny was thought to have magical powers in medieval Christian mythology. Legend has it that it possesses magical abilities, such as making its bearer unharmed in combat and influencing the destiny of entire nations. These theories caused many to believe that the spear belonged to or was sought after by several historical people, such as Charlemagne and Holy Roman Emperor Frederick I. People started making up stories and speculating about the spear's whereabouts after it vanished. It supposedly took place at various venues over the years, one of which was the Imperial Treasury in Vienna. There is still no certainty as to the relic's existence or provenance because neither historical documents nor archaeological discoveries have supported the assertions made about it. As a representation of strength, fate, and the otherworldly, the Spear of Destiny has maintained its allure in modern literature, film, and popular culture. The spear has endured in Christian mythology and folklore despite its mythological origins.
88. Spear of Mars
TV Fact
There is an artifact called the Spear of Mars in the Library's antiquities department. The Spear of Ares is an explosive target.
Fun Fact
Both Zeus and Mars, the Roman god of war, are linked to the mythical Spear of Ares in Greek mythology. Mars, the Roman god of war and victory, was highly esteemed for his association with strength and will. In several depictions, the Spear of Mars—a celestial weapon of military might—is seen. Using this spear, Mars supposedly guided his warriors to triumph. The legendary spear was said to have magical qualities that could vanquish enemies and guarantee triumph for its wielders. The Romans placed a high value on the Spear of Mars because of its sacred and symbolic status as a relic. The rituals that honored Mars included its veneration as a sacred artifact. In Roman military philosophy and history, the spear was pivotal due to its association with triumph in battle. Legend and folklore are the primary sources of the Spear of Mars, as they are with other mythical artifacts. Though a real spear may not have been physically associated with Mars in antiquity, the awe and symbolism surrounding it have persisted into Roman mythology and culture. The Spear of Mars continues to symbolize divine intervention and military might in popular culture.
89. Spinning Wheel of Clotho
TV Fact
Artifacts from classical Greece, such as the Spinning Wheel of Clotho, may be on exhibit in The Library. Because it was never spun in-universe, the exact powers of the Wheel remain unknown. Â There might be a link between the Spinning Wheel of Clotho and the Loom of Fate, two artifacts that can alter one's future through the use of enchanted fabric.
Fun Fact
This idea known as the "Spinning Wheel of Clotho" originated in Greek mythology. Along with the other two Moirai, or Fates, Clotho was in charge of determining what happened to humans. It was said that Clotho could gauge the duration and quality of each person's life by use of her thread of life. For this, she relied on the spinning wheel. The three sisters known as the Moirai represent the forces of fate and destiny in Greek mythology. Two more Moirai besides Clotho were Lachesis, who measured the life thread, and Atropos, who severed it, representing death. The main duty of Clotho was to spin the thread of life. She would take the thread from her distaff and spin it on her spinning wheel to signify the beginning of every mortal's life. The recurrence of events and Clotho's mortality are both represented by the spinning wheel she wears. Like a thread being spun, each person's destiny is predetermined; life has a beginning and an end. Illustrations of Clotho's spinning wheel appear frequently in literary and artistic works. This piece of art is a constant reminder that she controls human destiny more than anybody else.

90. Staff of Moses
TV Fact
Moses parted the Red Sea with the help of his miraculous staff, which is also known as the staff of Moses. In "... And the Wrath of Chaos" from Season 3, Flynn uses the staff that he concealed behind the desks in the Annex. The crew successfully navigates vast bodies of water by applying their expertise. Since it might be used to extract water from rocks, it must contain a multitude of water-related abilities. On top of that, the staff had the representation of a serpent and its inverse.
Fun Fact
A relic from the Staff of Moses is said to be shared throughout the three Abrahamic faiths—Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Moses (Musa in Islam) is a key figure in many religions' sacred stories. Connected is he. Moses' Staff is significant to the Bible, especially Exodus. Moses purportedly performed miracles with the rod to show Pharaoh God's power. The staff is crucial to several Bible miracles. It appears as a serpent when Moses and Pharaoh meet (Exodus 7:8–13). When the Red Sea divided (Exodus 14:16) and when water was generated by striking a rock (Exodus 17:5-7), the Israelites encountered the desert. The Staff of Moses symbolizes an ultimate, all-powerful God. After God miraculously delivered the Israelites from Egypt, Moses was ordered to brandish the rod to show Pharaoh his sovereignty (Exodus 3:1). The Islamic word for Moses and his staff in the Quran is "Asa al-Musa" (the Staff of Moses). Its transformation into a serpent (Quran 20:17–24) and sea-dividing function (Quran 26:63–66) are miracles. The Staff of Moses, important to Christian and Jewish theology, symbolizes authority and divine intervention. The motif of Moses' dual role as prophet and redeemer appears frequently in religious art and iconography. The Staff of Moses is mentioned in religious scriptures and traditions, however researchers disagree on its existence. No one knows if the relic exists, thus religious scriptures that describe it must be understood through mythology and symbolism.

Fun Fact
Staff - NAÂ
In his 1933 book "Lost Horizon," James Hilton introduced the idea of the legendary "Shangri-La." The idea of a mythical paradise where everyone lives in harmony has been widely held in high esteem ever since. Where Shangri-La sprang from is a mystery. James Hilton's "Lost Horizon" featured it. The story takes place in a quiet valley high in the Himalayas, where resilient and tranquil people live. In "Lost Horizon," the fabled country of Shangri-La is portrayed as a picture-perfect haven with picturesque scenery, year-round sunshine, and moderate climates. The locals maintain ecological equilibrium through a leisurely, seasonally-oriented way of living. One striking feature of the utopian society is the idea that the people of Shangri-La in "Lost Horizon" believe in an infinite lifespan and a glacial pace of aging. Being immortal adds to the mystique and charm of the enchanted realm. Shangri-La represents the philosophical principles of tranquility, knowledge, and enlightenment. There, locals ponder deep philosophical questions, reflect on their own lives, and seek new information. To get away from it all, the valley is an ideal location. "Lost Horizon" was instrumental in making Shangri-La a household name. Over time, the expression has come to mean everything that can make one feel complete, happy, and fulfilled. Hilton claims that his travels over the Himalayas and his experiences with Tibetan Buddhist culture served as inspiration for the fictional Shangri-La. This idea is based on a concept from Tibetan mythology that refers to hidden and mysterious places. After the publishing of "Lost Horizon," numerous places throughout the world were touted as possible Shangri-La replacements, especially those with beautiful natural scenery and fascinating histories. Alps, Himalayas, and other mountainous regions are part of this category.
92. Staff of Zarathustra
TV Fact
The Staff of Zarathustra, also known as the Staff of Knowledge, is an ancient and mighty relic that holds the clue to a long-lost corpus of knowledge. The Staff of Zarathustra was second fiddle to Prospero's original staff, but he eventually learned to utilize it instead.
Fun Fact
Both historical and folkloric accounts of the "Staff of Zarathustra" are few. For the ancient faith of Zoroastrianism, the high priest Zarathustra (sometimes spelled Zoroaster) presided. There is no concrete evidence, although historians agree that Zarathustra lived in ancient Persia (modern-day Iran) around 600 BCE. He was instrumental in establishing Zoroastrianism, the official religion of Persia, which paved the way for the development of other major religions. Zarathustra centered his teachings around dualism, specifically the struggle between good and evil. According to his teachings, Ahura Mazda exemplified purity, justice, and structure, and he was the only supreme deity. The embodiment of chaos, treachery, and wickedness, Angra Mainyu (also known as Ahriman), clashed with Ahura Mazda. The Gathas, a canon of songs that lay the groundwork for Zoroastrianism, are supposedly penned by Zarathustra. Truthfulness, kindness, and honesty are just a few of the ethical ideals emphasized in the songs. Artists often portray the prophet Zarathustra holding a scepter or staff, although the title "Staff of Zarathustra" is not used in Zoroastrian literature. This staff may represent his calling as a priest or prophet, mediating between people and God. Zoroastrianism had a tremendous impact on the development of ancient religious philosophy. The three Abrahamic faiths owe a debt of gratitude to it for sharing its teachings on rebirth, dualism, and the triumph of good over evil. Zoroastrianism remained popular in Persia for a long period after Islam spread there. Its relevance, however, started to decline with the Arab conquest of Persia in the seventh century CE. Iran and India are today the two most important hubs for Zoroastrianism, although it was formerly practiced by a small minority.
93. Star of Marrakesh

94. Stations of the Cross Magical Safe
TV Fact
The Opal of Samara was purposefully housed and protected in the enchanted vault called the Stations of the Cross. Upon stealing the Opal of Samara from Jerusalem during the Third Crusade, the Teutonic knights placed it in a magical safe. At some point, the Nazi occult division stole it and hid it in Berlin. The double-digit combination that unlocks the safe is based on Latin Bible passages, particularly the eight stations of the crucifixion. Every dead body within a hundred miles will be transformed into a zombie the moment the safe's trap activates, which will take three minutes. Flynn Carsen took the opal from its enchanted safe as Eve Baird was trying to locate and detonate a nuclear weapon, and the two first met. Flynn defused the safe's trap, but it had been set off by mistake. Using the safe's final diffusion code of 2, 2, 5, 6, 6.Â
Fun Fact
"Stations of the Cross Magical Safe" is an entirely fictional idea that has no supernatural, religious, or real-life basis. A series of sculptures or paintings showing scenes from the Passion of Christ, starting with his crucifixion and concluding with his burial, make up the Stations of the Cross. As a typical devotional practice during Lent, many Catholic churches showcase images of the Stations of the Cross. A "magical safe" is a protective container that can keep valuables safe from harm. Imaginary safes might hold priceless artifacts, mysteries, or secrets in certain fairy tales and books of fantasy fiction. Combining the hallowed imagery of the Stations of the Cross with magical or mystical protection, one may materialize an imaginary artifact called a "Stations of the Cross Magical Safe" by assembling these components.
95. Stone of King Arthur
TV Fact
The fabled piece of granite from which King Arthur retrieved Excalibur is known as the Stone of King Arthur. Underneath Buckingham Palace, members of the British royal family took up the role of guardians and concealed the stone. The stone is composed primarily of magical elements; upon its return to Excalibur, it will unleash an immense amount of magic into the ley lines.
Fun Fact
The Stone of King Arthur is a legendary artifact associated with the legendary British king, the legends of Camelot, and the Round Table Knights. Legend has it that Merlin, the magician, turned the legendary sword Excalibur into a stone, which King Arthur later came to refer to as the Stone of King Arthur. According to the legend, only the rightful king of Britain can free the sword from the stone, proving his right to rule. By representing the divine right to govern and the legitimacy of monarchy, the Stone of King Arthur serves as a symbol. It is thought that certain individuals are selected for leadership positions by a higher power, rather than being bestowed such positions by humans. The story of the Blade in the Stone, sometimes called "The Sword in the Stone" or "The Sword in the Anvil," is one of the most famous events in the King Arthur canon. Taking the sword out of the stone is often depicted as the moment when a young Arthur, ignorant of his royal lineage, establishes his rightful kingdom. Various versions and interpretations of the Stone of King Arthur may be found throughout Arthurian legend, although the most famous one is the Sword in the Stone. Some versions of the story have the stone depicted as a throne or symbol of monarchy rather than a place to keep Excalibur. The wealth of Celtic and British traditions surrounding holy stones and standing stones may have served as a historical inspiration for the Stone of King Arthur legend. Such stones frequently served as representations of supernatural forces, geographical boundaries, or ceremonial authority.
