The heavy, pitted irons trace their origins to the tumultuous Civil War era in Coia, a time defined by the rampant slave trade that exploited the corrupted Bukhara Spire Gateways. On 17 December 1, these unique restraints were specifically forged to secure dangerous cargo, often sorcerers or extra-planar entities captured in the vicinity of the rifts. Tempered in the magical resonance of the spires, they acquired a remarkable durability that belies their rustic appearance.

During this chaotic period, the bindings were utilized for their intended purpose, holding their formidable prisoners fast. However, their active service came to an abrupt end when the Dragonbone Vanguard successfully collapsed the dangerous gates at Highborne Summit. In the upheaval of this critical event, the specialized irons were lost to time, disappearing from known records.

For centuries, the forgotten restraints lay dormant, sealed away in a long-hidden smuggler's cache. This secret repository was located deep within the Shadowfell, beneath the gnarled roots of a massive petrified tree, ensuring their undisturbed preservation. They remained untouched, a relic of a bygone era.

Recently, the ancient irons were rediscovered within their sealed crate, brought back into the light after their centuries-long slumber. Though appearing to be standard, albeit ancient, restraints, their magical tempering has preserved their integrity. The item remains intact, having never been destroyed throughout its long history.

Currently, these recovered irons are either hanging heavily on a belt or stored within a pack. They patiently await their next purpose, ready to bind a new prisoner with their enduring, magically-imbued strength.
