Dago’s Lykos Soil Canister

Introduced in Dark Age as Darrow's personal talisman, the Dago’s Lykos Soil Canister holds a handful of red Martian earth from his birthplace, serving as a tangible link to the humble origins he has long left behind. Throughout the novel, Darrow keeps the portable canister close during his most grueling campaigns, drawing quiet strength from its presence amid betrayal, loss, and the fracturing of the Republic. The object underscores his internal conflict between the revolutionary he has become and the red he once was, evolving from mere sentiment into a quiet emblem of resilience.
