==Properties==
When you look at it the globe contains numerous images documenting the history of events in Elanthia. The globe can be worn.<br />
<br />
*As you look at your globe, the image of a raging inferno incinerates the mist.  An exploding mountain spills lava over a small village, and the smoke heaved forth from the volcano finally clouds over the tragic scene.
*As you look at your globe, the image of a pirate ship closes quickly on an unsuspecting shoreline.  You can't quite make out its destination before the globe's mists cloud over your view.
*As you look at your globe, the image of a festival full of jovial shoppers appear, all carrying varying amounts of some sort of delicious-looking small cakes.  After one shopper bites into her cake, she pulls a ring from her mouth and waves it aloft: a winner of a precious prize baked inside.
*As you look at your globe, the image of a series of isles comes into view: one mysterious, one greener than the richest farmland.  Another island is covered in sand.  The last is dominated by a vast tiered city with stairs climbing to the sky.  The globe's swirling mists quickly obscure the vision.
*As you look at your globe, the image of a shimmering white unicorn steps from the mist and prances across a frozen field.  With each step of her hooves, the snow melts away to reveal the green grass of spring.  Each touch of her horn causes flowers to spring from the ground and open in the full bloom of renewed life.
*As you look at your globe, you see a scene of people chained to the oars of a galley, obviously prisoners.  An exhausted convict slumps forward over his oar.  At once, the ship's [[empath]] ministers to him with a bucket of water.  As the globe fogs over, you catch a glimpse of a massive fortress set upon an ocean-side cliff.
*As you look at your globe, the image of a blazing comet flashes through the swirling mists.  A heartbeat later, crystal shards tumble from the sky like solid rain, changing colors as they descend, and finally obscured as the globe clouds.
*As you look at your globe, the image of a glorious royal wedding fills your vision, complete with flowing gowns and finery unseen in the realms before.  Just as suddenly, the globe clouds over once again.
*As you look at your globe, the image of a horde of [[Gorbesh]] soldiers advancing through the mist appears.  Then, just as suddenly, they disappear as the swirling mist obscures the view.
*As you look at your globe, the image of [[Twando]] appears.  Smirking, he draws his blade as he slowly stalks a [[paladin]].  As the bandit leaps upon his unsuspecting victim, the mists mercifully blot out the scene.
*As you look at your globe, the image of a weary traveler comes into view.  As he trudges along, you notice the single item hanging from his belt: a crystal web key.  He pauses, and as he touches the key, is consumed by the globe's mists.
*As you look at your globe, a golden number "15" flashes briefly in the mist before dissolving into the swirling clouds.
*As you look at your globe, the image of a huge mechanical dragon sweeps into view and just as quickly vanishes into the distance.
*As you look at your globe, you see a crowd of furious Halflings, walloping each other for all they're worth, erupt out of tavern door framed by a set of massive shark jaws.  They are carrying a hapless adventurer in their midst.  He goes sprawling on the cobblestones as the Halflings brawl their way around the corner.
