The Closing Bell

aka The Quieting Bell

A brass bell cast for Temple closing-rites — once rung to mark an ending properly finished, last logged in the Driftmarket's books before vanishing from the ledger entirely.

A small, heavy bell of mottled brass, its clapper fitted with a plug of dense temple-bronze that gives it a low, flat, textureless ring — no overtone to it at all, deliberately, so it can't be mistaken for a funeral chime or a warning. It's rung once at the exact moment a closing-rite finishes: the door latched, the seal replaced, the eyes shut. It was part of a Temple consignment that moved through the Driftmarket three seasons ago and never reached its listed destination. Calder Voss is 'very interested in a certain missing bell' — a closing-rite tool in an unscrupulous trader's hands can be rung over an ending that isn't actually finished yet, forcing something closed before it's ready, which the priests who lost it would very much like back before anyone tries.
