Taborlin's Amulet

item

Black amulet cold as ice worn on neck. Worth a bucket of gold nobles but sold cheaply. Protects from demons and evil according to stories of Taborlin the Great.

Taborlin's Amulet, a black pendant as cold as ice said to protect from demons and evil in the legends of Taborlin the Great, debuts in The Name of the Wind as a seemingly valuable artifact sold cheaply despite its reputed worth of a bucket of gold nobles. Worn around the neck, it embodies the series' blend of folklore and skepticism, hinting at deeper magical truths yet to unfold. Across the Kingkiller Chronicle, the amulet remains a singular, enigmatic reference tied to childhood tales, with no further evolution or revelations in subsequent books, underscoring the persistence of myth in Kvothe's world.
