Amarth

The Amarth is an orb made of pure darkness that has indirectly (or directly) caused all conflict since the precursor ages, (and possibly before).

It's origins are unknown, however it is known that it was first discovered by Tynitrus, while mining for diamonds in a cave far outside the boundaries of civilization. Tynitrus became obsessed with the orb and began studying it, as it slowly corrupted him and turned him into a dark, hellish creature. Using it's dark magic, he learned to cast spells and incantations of darkness, as well as summon and create abominations and minions.

During the events of the Cataclysm, the Amarth protected Infernus, Midra , and Mordum from Omnus ' light, keeping them alive into the new age. Once the Archdemons took their place in Hell, Infernus personally retrieved the Amarth and brought it back to Hell's capital city, Odignus. There, it sits atop the spire of the Demonic Palace, where it is constantly studied by Infernus, just as it was studied by his father so many millenia ago. Infernus hopes to use it as a weapon for defeating the Angels, and ruling over Heaven and Earth.

The Angels have tried for centuries to retrieve and destroy the Amarth, but it holds a power greater than the Precursors themselves. A power that has yet to be unlocked.
