The Elder Orb of Embers, or Zuwuth Uv Enkii in Draconic, was a dragon orb powered by a piece of a star. In the Black Tide War, this item was in the possession of the lich Katrana. In 1477, during the siege of Elamir, the item was used in the making of the fiery peaks of Armorn and Ireriel. The subsequent earthquakes, heavy smoke, and lava bombs were instrumental in the taking of Elamir.
Later in the Black Tide War, the orb was used again, corrupting the Crown of Phlehorn.
In 1533, Katrana was driven from Gûn. Her attackers, the Golden Elite, recovered the orb and went about fixing the problems it had wrought. The magic on Maharâg's transformed dwarves was removed, restoring them to their original forms. Possession of the orb, also allowed them to cool the land, ending the eruptions of Armorn and Ireriel.
In 1534, the Golden Elite traveled to the Crillion Comet. Leaving the giff platform Atlas Glory, they explored this Lith-Crillion voidship for days. After finding what they came for, a Rift Spanner, the Atlas Glory jumped across the Quarat'un system to its primary star. Once in position, they fired the Elder Orb of Embers like a cannonball, hurtling it towards the fiery core of Merioss where it was consumed.
