Ark Scepter

The Ark Scepter (Japanese:アークセプター) is a staff in Wild Arms 3 that allows individuals to interface with the power of the Guardians. In the prologue, Gallows Carradine retrieves one from the Fallen Sanctuary, unaware that there are others until he reads that another is being transported via train to his village Baskar Colony. He meets his future comrades after boarding said train and helps them protect the object from train robbers, returning home to find out from his grandmother Halle that there were two more scepters, and four total. She has the heroes bring the staves back to the Fallen Sanctuary where the objects brightly glow and dissipate into light, allowing the four Drifters to release the Guardians from their monoliths and gain their Mediums.
