If placed on a Shrine whose color corresponds to the Virtue of the fragment's color, a message will appear stating that you feel a surge of power and the fragment will sink into the ground. There is also the sound of a failed spellcast, which leads to the guess that something is supposed to happen - but failed. See Theories below.

Nothing else seems to happen...


As of 11/8/2019, they remain.....mysterious. And as of 04OCT2019, these fragments remain.....mysterious.
