Having succeeded in weathering the Trial of the Forgiving, you will discover upon regaining your belongings that something new has ended up among them. The Shield of Mercy is invulnerable to any permanent damage, incapable of being dented or scratched. It cannot deflect or guard against everything, but it is capable of warding against physical blows of great force.
This object can be used by you, and you alone. When this shield is used to successfully counter a blow, a ghostly shape of golden, feathery wings will manifest on your back. They are not functional or capable of flight in any way, and are purely ethereal, to mark when the object is in active use.
