Triskelion

The Triskelion‎‎ was an item of ancient origin. It was split in three equal pieces and separately hidden. It was covered with runes in unique manner, which caught Gaius attention, when Julius Borden showed a piece to him. He tried to reunite the pieces to use it. Holding the pieces in the designated position caused them to magically weld together.

History

As a part of a security system, the triskelion was made as another step to prevent access to the tomb of Ashkanar. Divided into three equal shaped pieces, they were hidden in different locations. One of the pieces was for over 400 years in the vault of Camelot, one was in the possession of a druid group around Iseldir. When Julius Borden stole it from them, he had the third piece already. Merlin eventually helped Borden to get the one in Camelot, because Gaius refused, being suspicious of his motives.

And even though Gaius warned Merlin, the old stories were too appealing, since they told of a hidden dragon egg.

Once assembled Borden betrayed Merlin and made his way alone guided by the triskelion. Arrived at the mausoleum, Borden used it as a key for a door, which had an equally shaped indentation, but set of a trap which dispersed a white haze upon him. Merlin was warned by the druids who told him the old story only druids knew, about the triskelion’s feature as a trap. (Aithusa)
