Near to the covenant is a water fall, coming from the hills, into Buttermere. At midnight on the Winter Solstice, someone with the gift can, by collected water from the rushing flow, obtain 10 pawns of Aq vis. If the water is not collected it will flow into Buttermere, and if the lake is fished by the Summer solstice, some of the fish (identifiable as they are a peculiar green-gold colour) contain 1 pawn An vis each. 1D10 fish can be gathered in this time, but someone must be capable to fishing either magically or by mundane means.
In a nest high in the hills some miles from the covenant, each year, 4 pawns of Auram vis an be collected in the form of 4 yellow feathers. In addition, if the feathers are placed in the mouth, they will send that person into a special form of Twilight. To those observing the subject will seem to be asleep, but to the subject they will seem to be in a strange dream. Roll for twilight as normal, except that only 1 Twilight point is gained. If used in this way they cannot be used again and the vis is spent. This property of the feathers apparently was discovered by Mico by accident (though the autocrats have known about this property for generations).
Beneath the arcane tower is a chamber in which burns an unending flame (one reason for the covenant name). Each year 14 pawns of Ignem vis can be collected. On random years (1 on a D10) at midsummer 12 pawns of Vim vis are also released and can be collected.
In a nearby forest, at the end of the valley, within a faerie regio, is a statue. At the mundane level is looks like a large rock but at regio level 3 it will appear as a rough statue and at level 5 will appear as a statue of a female forest spirit, crying. These tears collect into crystals at the base of the statue and 9 may be collected each year by someone capable of entering the regio. As well as being Corpus vis, one pawn will free any one body from disease.
