	The '''Salakar''', or the '''''Vessel of Souls''''' in [[Dökkálfar and Ljósálfar\|elven]], was an extremely powerful ancient artifact which was developed by the elves and sealed deep beneath [[Svartálfaheimr]] ages ~~prior to~~ the [[Muspels~~\|Muspel~~]] invasion of the land. The Salakar had the power to drain an individual's souls and keep it contained within itself with any other spirits it had captured. For this reason, the seemingly-immortal Isu warlord [[Surtr]] sought the device for himself, hoping to steal the "light" of Odin's son [[Baldr]] and thereby start [[Ragnarök]].		The '''Salakar''', or the '''''Vessel of Souls''''' in [[Dökkálfar and Ljósálfar\|elven]], was an extremely powerful ancient artifact which was developed by the elves and sealed deep beneath [[Svartálfaheimr]] ages before the [[Muspels]]' invasion of the land.

For this reason, the seemingly-immortal Isu warlord [[Surtr]] sought the device for himself, hoping to steal the "light" of Odin's son [[Baldr]] and thereby start [[Ragnarök]].

	After [[Odin]] discovered that Baldr had been taken by the Salakar in his ultimately futile attempt to rescue his son, he used it to ensnare Surtr during their final clash at the base of the main [[Towers\|Tower]] in [[Eitri]]. He originally abandoned the relic with Surtr's remains, but later baited [[Juno]] into collecting it as a possible method to save [[Aita]]. Odin informed her that it would need to be emptied first, secretly trusting that her efforts would release Baldr back into the world after the [[Great Catastrophe\|oncoming cataclysm]].
