The Pact of Teclis is an agreement among the Imperial Colleges of Magic, named after their founder, the High Elven Archmage Teclis, that all artefacts that would be too dangerous to destroy or whose study might aid the fight against the Chaos Gods are to be handed into the custody of the Light Order.[1a]
Magisters of the Fourth Circle tend to them and keep them hidden in the vaults beneath the Light College. No wizard save for the Magister Patriarch of the Light Order and those empowered by them has the authority to enter the vaults and use or request to use one of the artefacts stowed below.[1a]
