The Soul-Chasing Needle.
A demonic artifact mentioned in the original story. It was considered one of the most terrifying artifacts in existence, not because of its abilities but because of the man who had once gotten his hands on it.
A man named Justin.
He was a bastard who came closer than almost anyone to killing Noah in the novel and the reason for that was this very needle.
Its ability was simple.
It could replace a person's soul.
In the novel, Justin had used it to swap souls with one of Noah's few trusted comrades. Afterward, he continued acting as a loyal ally, perfectly maintaining the disguise. Then, the moment Noah acquired a valuable treasure, Justin attempted to stab him in the back.
Poor guy.
He should have known better.
That bastard Noah was never truly anyone's friend. Even the people he called comrades were never trusted completely.
So Justin naturally met his end.
