As you stare into the swirling top of this staff you feel as though you are lost to time and space. This is the Staff of Insight, created by Hounaste of the Rada. The staff is used in opening the Ancient Portal. It is a vital part, because it allows the other side of the portal to be located from such a great distance. Hounaste was able to use her own magical power to augment the staff and gain insight into many things, some say she could even see into the future.
