About this item

Eons ago, in a kingdom long forgotten, there lived a powerful wizard who unintentionally awakened their pointed hat. Though an accident, it proved a boon in disguise. Together they became legendary: the sorcerer and their magical hat, preventing disasters of both magical and natural origin, saving countless lives in the process.
Eventually, the sorcerer died, but the trusty hat remained. It searched long for a worthy new wearer, yet found none.
As the hat could not be worn against its will, it was cast aside and ultimately forgotten.

Until one day, its brooding silence was interrupted. And it was picked up once more.
