Artifacts of the Tomb of the Seven Thunders

After the Battle of the Tomb in 1168 members of each of the Great Clans of Rokugan as well as the Nezumi and Lost left the Tomb of the Seven Thunders with several nemuranai and historical artifacts and brought these back to their people. It is theorized that these items may have been placed in the Tomb by Shinsei himself to guide the groups to their destinies.

The Items
The following is a list of the artifacts taken from the Tomb and to which clan they were given.

Crab Clan
Yasuki Jinn-Kuen returned to the Crab with the Tao of Fu Leng, an evil book written by the hand of the Dark Kami himself. The book was deemed too dangerous to study as it would corrupt its reader, and to dangerous to destroy as it would unfailingly re-create itself and possibly fall into the hands of the Shadowlands.

Crane Clan
Daidoji Kikaze retreived the Sword of Kakita from the Tomb. It was not the sword that Kakita left at the Kakita Dueling Academy, but rather the sword given to him by Hantei at Kakita's marriage to Doji and the one which Kakita used to win the Emerald Championship. On the advice of Doji Seishiro Doji Domotai gave the sword to Doji Nagori.

Dragon Clan
Mirumoto Rosanjin took a Jade Mirror from the Tomb which was eventually presented to Togashi Satsu. Satsu explained that the mirror showed the person looking at it their true essence. Satsu ordered it taken to the High House of Light to be studied by the Togashi.

Lion Clan
Matsu Benika found the ashes of Lady Matsu. For bringing them back to the Lion Clan Matsu Yoshino gave Benika the honor of wielding Chukandomo.

Mantis Clan
Tsuruchi Etsui was given a candle to bring to the Mantis Clan. Being a Kolat, he would have rather preferred to have given the candle to his organization but their were witnesses who saw him with the candle. As yet, it is not known what the candle does. Etsui was able to hide a small silver baton that could split into two small knives, though only if Etsui were using it. Strangely, despite these properties the baton was not a nemuranai.

Phoenix Clan
Hitomi Maya brought the Egg of the Void to the Elemental Council as the final request of Shiba Aikune. The egg was a gift from the dragons, a way for man to become one with them.

Scorpion Clan
Shosuro Aroru brought a new black scroll to the Scorpion Clan. This scroll was not used by Isawa to bind Fu Leng, and it is not certain that it was used by Isawa himself. Bayushi Paneki ordered that it be placed in the custody of the Kuroiban.

Unicorn Clan
Moto Chen presented Moto Chagatai with a small model of a kobune that appeared to be carved from jade. Moto Tsusung and Rikako explained that the boat was a small fragment of the Celestial Kobune used by Suitengu, the Fortune of the Seas. Suitengu used his boat to travel between Ningen-do and Tengoku.

The Lost
Daigotsu Rekai recovered a box from the Burning Sands. The box contained sand, but the sand was stolen by the Nezumi Tik'tch. The powers of the sand and the box itself are not known as of yet, although the Ghul Lord was extremely fascinated by the box.

Nezumi
The Nezumi Oh'krch found an hourglass. The hourglass tingled to the touch, and after examining it the shaman, Atch-zin, concluded that it was Tomorrow. Kan’ok’ticheck and Atch-zin both had a disturbing experience with the hourglass but would not tell what it was.
