Message: <blockquote data-quote="Rystil Arden" data-source="post: 3915266" data-attributes="member: 29014">"Remember, there was a strong aura of Abjuration.  I'm not sure if you're aware of the theory of 'circles' of magic, so if not, I'll try to explain.  There are 9 so-called circles of magic, plus the 0th pseudo-circle for minor cantrips and orisons.  To give a bit of background--spells of the 9th circle are only wielded by the mightiest Archmages in stories.  It is unclear if anyone in the entire world has access to such magics in our time.  Personally, I can use spells of the 1st circle or lower, though I have been working hard to reach the 2nd and should be able to do so some day soon.  Spells of the 3rd circle or lower have faint auras.  Rilithorne, the most powerful Wizard in all of Orussus or its environs, can cast spells up to the 5th circle only.  Spells of the 4th through 6th circles have a moderate aura.  But this aura we found was a major aura, which means it was magic of the 7th through 9th circles.  In my homeland of Medibaria, some of our worlds greatest Wizards attend the Academy of the Chromatic Order.  One who has mastered spells of that magnitude would achieve the Academy's greatest honour, the title of Archmage.  In the last fifty years, there have only been three to achieve the status of Archmage, and all are dead or missing.""So with that in mind, you must understand that the magic and wards in place here must be considerable.  There is a spell called Disjunction that might be able to do the trick in breaking them, but it is of the 9th circle.  But the amulet is said to have power as well, presumably as much power as the wards used to safeguard it.  Unless we can find that legendary spell Disjunction, the amulet half may be our only option.  We can search for that spell too though if you have any leads, but since you said you know who has the other half, that seems like it would be easiest."</blockquote>
