Penrod's Heart Spike
itemFive-inch metal spike embedded in King Penrod's heart, small enough to be overlooked, heals into flesh allowing mental influence.
Penrod's Heart Spike first appears in The Hero of Ages as a subtle, five-inch metal spike embedded in King Penrod's heart, small enough to be overlooked yet powerful enough to allow external mental influence. The spike heals into the flesh, making it nearly undetectable while enabling its wielder to manipulate the king's decisions and actions. This artifact represents a chilling evolution in the series' exploration of hemalurgic control, transforming a political figure into an unwitting puppet of greater forces.
