A '''Thorn of Speaking''' is a powerful magical artifact in possession of the [[Circle of Thorns]].


== Appearance ==
== Appearance ==
While not sure if all Thorn of Speaking are the same, one of these artifacts resembles a carefully-sculpted rose made of glass and magic, with razor-sharp thorns.<ref name="7.24" />
One of these thorns resembles a carefully-sculpted rose made of glass and magic. It has razor-sharp thorns.


== Enchantments ==
== Usage ==
This artifact(s) uses Blood magic to operate, by having the user cutting their skin with the razor-sharp thorns, to draw out their blood to ran across the glass rose. The blood is then twisted and changed, confirming the users allegiance only when the blood is seeped into the rose. Once that is done, the spell opens a gateway to other artifact(s) were only sound alone pass through.
The artifacts use blood magic - the user must prove their identity by cutting their skin with the magical thorns. The blood is then twisted by the magic, transforms and enables the magical device: a small portal opens that connects the Thorn of Speaking to the innermost Circle of Thorns, called the 'Petals of Death'. This is either a network of similar artifacts, or a single chamber to which all the artifacts are connected, or possibly although unlikely, an actual meeting room where the Petals convene. Apparently, only sound can be transmitted via this link.
 
This artifact(s) also scrambles the sound of the speakers voice’s intonations and tone, making them flat and dispassionate, so that they will not be recognized. The only thing that can be recognized about them is their gender.<ref name="7.24" /> It is currently unknown if this applies for the user side as well or not.
 
== Known Owners ==
* [[Rie Valerund]]<ref name="7.24" />
* Petals of Death<ref name="7.24" /> - Presumably all 7 members
* Roots of Contempt - Presumably all members
 
== Trivia ==
* Due to this artifact uses of Blood magic, it has a tenuous relationship with the law.<ref name="7.24" />
 
== Notes ==
* It is currently unknown if there is a single Thorn of Speaking or multiple ones, as it either connects with a network of similar artifacts, or a single chamber to which all the artifacts are connected to, or possibly although unlikely, an actual meeting room where the Petals of Death members convene.
