Description[]
This small piece of stone is inscribed with a symbol that seems to slide away from the eye that beholds it. There is something dark and wonderful about the lines and swirls that make up the shape. This could be offered up to the Archives in order to obtain ancient wisdom.
Notes[]
Fragments of Power is a guaranteed drop from the Unnamed City Bosses, with a ~1.1% chance to receive a second Fragment of Power. Additional Fragments of Power can be found at the Ancient Scorpion Queen, The Executioner, Khari Remnants and as 
Relic Fragments in small chests hidden around the City and the Wine Cellar dungeon.
They are primarily used to unlock the Library of Esoteric Artifacts recipes and craft the respective items, by interacting with the stacked scroll shelf to the right of the Archivist's circular podium in the Archives. 5 can be traded directly to The Archivist to receive A Memory of Oils scroll. There is also a recipe for the Expert Mountaineer knowledge, by trading in one Fragment of Power at The Mountaineer.
Fragments of Power can be consumed to acquire 10 additional knowledge points after reaching level 60. Note that using them to craft 
Tablets of Power instead will grant more knowledge points per fragment. You only gain knowledge points, no Attribute points.
If you drink a 
Potion of Natural Learning after consuming a 
Fragment of Power, the gained 10 knowledge points remain. If you can gain enough knowledge points with this mechanic, you will be able to unlock every knowledge.
Currently, a Level 60 player requires 176 Fragments to learn every knowledge. This is lowered to 105 if Fragments are used to make 21 Tablets of Power.
