Alora's Quill

Dipped in blood

Lady Alora Sybrant is perhaps the most frightening woman in recent Seruic history. If her journals are to be believed, over two hundred young women and girls fell victim to her lust for blood.

— A scholar

Alora's quill was the quill Lady Alora Sybrant used to write her journals, which detailed her crimes over a ten year period. Most notably, each of her victims' names were inscribed in their own blood.
The quill is made of the feather of a white raven, with a wicked point made of silver. It is currently held in a vault below the Needle in the city of Ebonvale. People who have seen the quill in person report it to have a somewhat malevolent aura, though scholars argue that this is merely due to knowledge of its history.
Alora was the youngest child and only daughter of the former High Lord Stephen Sybrant. Uncommonly for a High Lord of Serukis's daughter, she did not get married; instead, her father indulged her every whim. He even had a separate residence built for her, a beautiful building known as Butterfly Hall. In 4592 EA, after the title of High Lord had passed to him, her brother, Colton, discovered some disturbing rumours that their father had been intentionally suppressing. Butterfly Hall was raided and Alora's journals discovered, which left Colton in no doubt of her crimes. She was imprisoned and subsequently executed, with the quill kept as a reminder of what power could do left unchecked.
