anhekova
Description pl. anhekovel. These magical creations were the heart of the might of the Fretheod Empire. These staves allow, through the cwicustan required in their making, a link via the Yrmenweald to the strange power of the keseth. A person using an anhekova is able to forecast the weather, to see distant details as if they were close, to survey large areas of land as if flying above them. These abilities gave the Fretheod great tactical advantage over their foes. The plural of the word is anhekovel. They come to be referred to, somewhat innacurately (in light of Fretheod culture), by historians and scholars as Son Staves.
