The Magic Mirror of Shallot

The Magic Mirror of Shalott- Lord Alfred Tennyson wrote about a mirror that allowed the Lady of Shalott to look into it and see different scenes from Camelot. In the books, his work is based on a real artifact that existed in King Arthur’s treasure room. It was given magical properties long ago during the second war for Earth. It allowed beings to look into The Void as an act of monitoring its activities. In the past, it was shattered, and pieces were passed down as heirlooms. Mr. Jones’ eyeglasses contain a piece of that mirror. His predecessor, Mr. Smith fashioned them into glasses for a more practical use. The wind dragons of Beacon also have a shard, which they attached to a homemade satellite as part of a monitoring system for the different portals they have found. They use this system to track the search parties from The Void and help the heroes.
