* Though the [[Token of Modification]] for untraining, specializing and redistributing attributes share the same name, they do '''''not''''' share timers. This means you can actually get 4 untraining gems, and still get 4 specializing gems if you have never done this before.
* Tinkering skills can only specialised using [[Augmentation]]s.

<font color=darkgoldenrod>Servant of Forgetfulness tells you, "In order to ensure that the magics of this temple are not overused, the Wardens of Forgetfulness have awoken. They will determine if you are allowed access to their gems. Take this token and give it to the warden of your choice, who will then give you a gem if you meet their requirements."<br></font>

<font color=darkgoldenrod>Servant of Alteration tells you, "The temples have been changing. The gems are no longer available to all, and statues - wardens - have appeared out of nowhere. However, it seems that the work I did previously allows me some level of control over them. It is quite facinating, in fact. If this works right, this statue will give you the same token as the other servants have begun to hand out. You'll need to give the token to the new wardens to receive their gem."<br></font>
<font color=darkgoldenrod>Servant of Alteration tells you, "The magic which allows Isparians to alter themselves seems stable, but there's some evidence of instability in repeated uses.  Therefore, I'm implementing a limit. You can take the first nine red attribute gems and nine green attribute gems with no delay. You will need to wait a week per red gem neyond nine, and likewise you will need to wait a week per green gem beyond nine. You'll need to wait two weeks per red gem beyond eighteen, and two weeks per green gem beyond eighteen."<br></font>
<font color=darkgoldenrod>Servant of Alteration tells you, "If you make a mistake and get the wrong gem, you can give the gem to this servant and you will be able to pick up another, but be warned...once you have picked up a new gem, you must wait the full duration before picking up another. Also, if you have combined two gems, they can no longer be returned."<br></font>
