The Visage, with a horrifying scream, finally dies a final death. You have defeated the first desecration. Level up.

Among the age old treasure she possessed is a number of Rosary beads. 

ROSARY BEADS:
Hardened Brain Matter - A memento from the Visage. A hard, waxy piece of actual brain matter from an Afflicted saint. A person who places this bead in his Rosary gains +1 damage to magic attacks always.
Dove Skull - That morning, when the bonfires were lit and the convicts were raising their ghastly pleas to the indifferent Brotherhood inquisitors, a white dove came down from heaven and perched on the shoulder of a prisoner, where it stayed until it burned with him. A person who places this bead in his Rosary gains +1 AC permanently.
Consecrated Amethyst - Take all the jewels, all the precious stones, all the gold from those chests to consecrate him, for today we will clothe the saint and raise his body to the highest. A person who places this bead in his Rosary inflicts +1 damage always.
Fire Enclosed in Enamel - A livid fire arose from the top of the mast, a tongue of fire sometimes white, sometimes blue, dancing wildly and seeming not to diminish at all despite the terrible storm that fell upon us. It was the torch of the Emperor's finger, pointing down from on high to our boat. The furious light opened up a path through the night and guided us through the storm. A person who places this bead in his Rosary gains +5 HP forever.
Scaly Coin - Look at this page, at the drawings it contains... A horse reading the Holy Scriptures, monkeys dressed as bishops, and a reptile being worshiped by a crowd. Do you hear those murmurs? It is the Brotherhood, warning us of the danger of these pages. We must leave this book in its place. A person who places this bead in his Rosary gains +1 to hit with any weapon forever.
