14. Ancestral Gauntlets
A fusion-type relic; it gives you the ability to guard an enemy attack, heal you and stun nearby enemies. A powerful ability, but it comes with the caveat of having to press forward into an enemy attack to activate it. It’s a challenging feat, considering that without this relic, the only way to avoid damage is to dodge and weave through attacks. This relic challenges you to go against how you’ve learned to play the game thus far in return for this powerful asset.
It can be bought from the shop or picked up during the Chaos Trials.

This relic can be your starter cursed relic or it can be picked up during the trials.
