	The Aeternexa ~~is a mechanical device~~, ~~looking much like an antique pocket watch, measuring 39 mm in diameter and comes attached with a gold chain and onyx pendulum at~~ the ~~end. It~~ is ~~made of 24k gold~~ with a ~~representation of celestial alignment between the sun and moon on the front, seemingly perfectly smooth sapphire, patterns in the crystal seem to be within the sapphire itself. Inside~~ the ~~device are a series~~ of ~~3 hands and 3 dials of rotating symbols inlaid into~~ the ~~face. Each hand~~ and ~~dial moves independently of~~ the ~~others, when put together each hand will point to 3 runes in alignment. The symbols align in such a way to provide~~ the ~~9 runes required~~ to ~~identify where within~~ the ~~[[Verum Transitus]]~~ one is.		[[File:aeternexa-ring.jpg\|thumb\|Ring]]
			; Classification : Delta, Iota, Rho, Sigma, Omega
			The Aeternexa refers to two distinct objects, the collar -- which is a simple cord with a raw amethyst attached which seals around the neck of the wearer once placed and the ring which grants the owner special abilities with respect to the one wearing the collar.

	== ~~Abilities~~ ==		== Collar ==
	The ~~device allows~~ the ~~owner to navigate~~ the ~~Verum [[Transitus]], though it is only one part~~ of the ~~puzzle~~ of ~~navigation~~. ~~It acts as a kind of compass~~, ~~it can tell a person where~~ they are and ~~where they are going by the symbols on the interior face~~. ~~While~~ the ~~[[Rose Codex]] is capable of showing a map from one place to another~~, the ~~Aeternexa acts like a compass~~ to this ~~map~~.		The collar itself is very simple, once sealed around the neck of a person they become the property of the owner of the ring. The bond between the master and slave goes beyond the jewelry itself. The collar grants the wearer an empathic connection to the master, they are aware of mood, location, and general state of mind. The slave may also mentally communicate with the master once the collar has been placed around their neck, though it takes some time for the connection to become deep enough for this.

	The ~~celestial alignment on~~ the ~~cover shifts~~ and ~~changes~~, it is able to ~~locate~~ the ~~nearest entrance~~ to the ~~Transitus~~. The ~~sun and moon move across~~ the ~~face~~ and the ~~geometric lines shift~~ to ~~point~~ the ~~owner at the nearest point which connects to the Transitus, no matter where it is~~.		== Ring ==
			The ring, once worn by the owner, similarly cannot be removed unless the owner wishes to remove it. Removing the ring does not break the connection between master and slave but does weaken it, depending on how long the pair have been bonded for. The master is able to communicate with the slave, command them, and summon them to appear at will whenever the master wishes. The master is also granted awareness of the slave's mood, state of mind / body, and otherwise is aware of the slaves position relative to the master.

	== ~~Use~~ ==		== The Bond ==
	~~To use~~ the ~~device within~~ the ~~Transitus one only has to read~~ the ~~symbols and move through~~ the ~~Transitus in~~ the ~~direction to align each dial and hand~~. ~~As one approaches~~ their ~~destination~~, the ~~symbols will align~~ and the ~~path will reveal itself~~. ~~Outside~~ the ~~Transitus~~, the ~~cover acts as~~ a ~~kind of directional compass, though somewhat more complex than that~~.		The bond between master and slave is intense, it grows deeper with time. The magic pushes the slave into being subservient, submissive, and reliant on the approval of the master, this does not subvert the will of the slave exactly. Rather than subvert their will, it keys into the slave's emotional states and makes them feel strong, more confident, and safer when they have the approval of their master.

In this way the collar & ring bond the master and slave together in a mutual need to care for each other within the master / slave dynamic.

	== ~~Origin~~ ==		=== Death of the Master ===
	~~Legend has it that this device is as old~~, ~~or nearly~~, as the ~~Rose Codex itself~~. ~~According to myth~~ the ~~Rose Codex was created but soon became too complex to navigate reliably to solve for this~~, the ~~Aeternexa was created. While there are known~~ to be ~~at 3 copies of~~ the ~~Codex, only one Aeternexa has ever been found~~. ~~Some legends say that~~ the ~~Aeternexa was created by~~ the ~~Transitus~~ itself, to ~~provide a way to navigate it by someone chosen by [[~~The ~~Crossroads\|~~the ~~crossroads]] itself~~.		When a master dies, they can pass their bond on to another person, usually a family member, by giving them the ring and willingly relinquishing the bond. Once this occurs the slave is immediately aware of it, whether the slave wishes the bond to be transferred or not they will quickly accept the new master once the bond is transferred. Without the bond being transferred, the collar will unseal and allow itself to be removed. The slave will also feel the death of the master intensely, even if the bond is transferred.

	== ~~Properties~~ ==		=== Death of the Slave ===
	~~By all appearances~~ the ~~watch is~~ a ~~mechanical device made of 24k gold~~. ~~Once can physically hear~~ the ~~internal gears clicking~~ the ~~same way one would in a pocket watch~~. The ~~face cover~~ will ~~not open to anyone, it can only be opened by~~ the ~~owner~~ of the ~~device~~ and ~~the back of the device does not open, the entire exterior appears to~~ be ~~two parts the lid on the hinge and the rest of the body is solid gold. The symbols inside are not static and change as the owners location changes, even if~~ the ~~hands do not move~~.		When the slave dies, they too can pass their bond on to another person, usually a son or daughter to continue the line. The bond transfers immediately and the master is instantly aware of the transfer. The new slave will immediately become the property of the master and both will be effected by the bond.

The Aeternexa is a mechanical device, looking much like an antique pocket watch, measuring 39 mm in diameter and comes attached with a gold chain and onyx pendulum at the end. It is made of 24k gold with a representation of celestial alignment between the sun and moon on the front, seemingly perfectly smooth sapphire, patterns in the crystal seem to be within the sapphire itself. Inside the device are a series of 3 hands and 3 dials of rotating symbols inlaid into the face. Each hand and dial moves independently of the others, when put together each hand will point to 3 runes in alignment. The symbols align in such a way to provide the 9 runes required to navigate the [[Verum Transitus]].

== Abilities ==
The device allows the owner to navigate the Verum [[Transitus]], though it is only one part of the puzzle of navigation. It acts as a kind of compass, it can tell a person where they are and where they are going by the symbols on the interior face. While the [[Rose Codex]] is capable of showing a map from one place to another, the Aeternexa acts like a compass to this map.

The celestial alignment on the cover shifts and changes, it is able to locate the nearest entrance to the Transitus. The sun and moon move across the face and the geometric lines shift to point the owner at the nearest point which connects to the Transitus, no matter where it is.

== Use ==
To use the device within the Transitus one only has to read the symbols and move through the Transitus in the direction to align each dial and hand. As one approaches their destination, the symbols will align and the path will reveal itself. Outside the Transitus, the cover acts as a kind of directional compass, though somewhat more complex than that.

== Properties ==
By all appearances the watch is a mechanical device made of 24k gold. Once can physically hear the internal gears clicking the same way one would in a pocket watch. The face cover will not open to anyone, it can only be opened by the owner of the device and the back of the device does not open, the entire exterior appears to be two parts the lid on the hinge and the rest of the body is solid gold. The symbols inside are not static and change as the owners location changes, even if the hands do not move.
