Mayan map
– Dated at over a thousand years old, the dense metallic tablet was unearthed by Sarah Morgan in 2040 at the Ruins of Copán in Honduras.
Consisting of Mayan hieroglyphs around a single line, the simple inscriptions portray a map linking together the ancient Mayan cities.
Anakim parchments
– Collected by Sarah, Trish and Jason from a number of sources, these ancient scrolls are made from an unknown material which fails to degrade over time. They also have the capability to store large amounts of data and act like a digital display when activated using Sarah’s pentagonal pendant.
Anakim orbs
– Ancient relics unearthed in Sanctuary Proper by an S.E.D. archaeology team.
Anakim pendants
– two metallic pentagonal pendants found by Sarah Morgan during previous archaeological digs. The larger of the two, measuring two and a half inches in diameter, enables the wearer to activate Anakim technology, although its use is limited by the operator’s physical size.
Pentagon
– Five-sided polygon.
Pentagram
– A five-pointed star contained within a circle.
God Device
– A piece of ancient technology of unknown origin.
Pharos
– An entity, or creature, that inhabits the dark halls of Sanctuary Proper. Also referred to as ‘the light’, it was named after the ancient Lighthouse of Alexandria, which was built by the Romans on the tiny island of Pharos, Egypt, around two thousand, three hundred years ago. The lighthouse was one of the Seven Wonders of the ancient world and no longer exists, save for the odd stone recycled at other sites.
Like its namesake, the pronunciation of the beast’s epithet, ‘Pharos’, is pronounced as follows: ‘fair-os’.
Anakim monolith / prism
– Massive fifty foot high artefact removed from a 900,000 year old building. Unearthed and recovered by SFSD soldiers under the command of General Stevens. The monolith contains a single chamber full of a viscous liquid which is protected by a transparent material.
Anakim shield
– Another ancient relic unearthed in Sanctuary Proper by S.E.D. personnel. Found in the same hoard as the orb (see above) and stored in the military vaults beneath the Museum of Sanctuary.

Poetry … I see you
I write
I sigh
I can
And do
Hope and pray
That someone
At some point
May brighten my day
At once
At night
The dark
No light
My mind a blur
Confusion astir
Words not worth writing
Some might say
It’s clear as I create this verse
That poetry can be
As deep or light as I want to see
Whether or not it has meaning to me
To you, to them, to everyone
I sigh
I write, I …
Pray
Enter the Light
Darkest shores
Temptations past
I’m still to live
To breath, to love
I used to think
Motivation elusive
And yet … now
Negative is conducive
My jealously, my failings
Another’s complainings
A comment, belittling
I feel it, so crippling
And yet despite my yearning
I believe in my learning
That one or two failings
Can propel me up high
Determination afire
Heart aching desire
To reach dream’s destination
My compassion now real
And so, as such, with clarity enhanced
Answer this question
Have I had my day?
Have you, what say?
