}}'''The Apple-of-the-Eye''', also known as the '''the Glorious Lie''', '''the Tower of Treasures''', '''the Rood''' and '''the Eye-Closed''' is one of the Hours of the Fansus, created by Amets. It is a God-From-Light and resides in [[the Glassgarden]]. Its primary aspect is [[Lantern]], with a secondary aspect of [[Moth]]. The Apple-of-the-Eye provides the Marks of Clarity.
It's tarot card is the Hermit. It had recently donned a crown, signifying a claim to royalty among the Hours. The widespread use of the headgear means it had long lost its significance in demarcating the children of the Great Serpent.

'''Summon an impervious creature servant of the Tower of Treasures:'''
The Jaded Maiden! She might be as old as the first Hours, or she might measure her age in seconds. She will answer to Lantern, for what she had seen, and Heart, for what she had survived.
The Maiden would be very easily mistaken for a statue, if statues were ever made with such detail (or with such verdant nephrite). She is quite content to stay like this.

* [[The Silver Owl]]: A respectable Hour reconstructing the Mansus one door at a time. One of the last remnants of the Forge principle. Appreciated.
* [[The Watcher in the Window]]: Both the Watcher and the Apple long for the past, the Mansus that was, even if the Watcher does not altogether remember it. Good neighbours and allies.
* [[The Elder Sister]]: The Apple-of-the-Eye had long beckoned the Witch's attention. With the Maker's passing, partially the Witch had occasionally deigned to test its own beauty, partially out of genuine interestvisit the Lie's gardens. The Lie is overjoyed at this fact.* [[The Unmirror]]: The Glorious Lie would often argue about the nature of the Self with the Mirror. Where the Lie saw rivers, the Speculum saw lakes. It was one of the more pleasant inhabitants of the House, especially in comparison to some of the more resent members. All the more shame that the Lie slew it.
* [[The Archivist]]:
* [[The Bright-Delver]]: Cute. Wholesome. Blessed.
