Divine Object

A «Divine Object» (ディヴァイン・オブジェクト or 神器) is an item in Underworld that was created by converting an animal, plant or object which had gathered a large amount of resources (memories) into a high «Priority» item, usually via a high-ranking Sacred Arts ritual. The «Priority» Class of Divine Objects outrank even items made out of dragon bones, which are supposedly the highest grade material for weapons in Underworld. Weapons of this class can be enhanced with the high-ranking «Armament Full Control Art» Sacred Art ritual that unlocks the true potential of the weapon.

Most Divine Objects are created by the Axiom Church and are used as weapons by the Integrity Knights. Divine Object weapons can only be used by people whose souls resonate with the weapon's memories.

Non-weapon Divine Objects also exist and usually have a certain "magical" attribute that allows them to do tasks which would normally require high-ranking Sacred Art rituals, like telling the current time in Underworld.

Background
As creating objects of a certain priority requires sacrificing an existence equal to the desired item, all Divine Objects are created from objects, animals or plants that have existed for long periods of time and have thus absorbed a large amount of resources and, because of that, have a large level of Priority. The created weapons inherit the parameters (memories) of the base material that they are made from, allowing the use of «Armament Full Control Arts» on such weapons to awaken their true parameters, greatly boosting the offensive power of the weapon.

Known Divine Objects

 * «Divine Object of Engraved Time» (みの) or a clock, was a Divine Object used for telling the exact time in Underworld, but they were supposedly destroyed by gods, as people used to look at it too often and never got to work seriously. In reality, this clock was likely used to create the «Time Piercing Sword».
 * «Bells of Time Telling» (げの) - one of the most widespread Divine Objects in Underworld, which replaced the «Divine Object of Engraved Time». Unlike the previously used Instrument, The Bells only chimes once every half hour, with a different melody each hour in a twelve hour period. Every settlement has at least one Bell, while large settlements like Centoria have plenty of these Bells throughout the city. The Bells were actually created by the Axiom Church as a method to keep town and village residents from moving too far away from their hometown, as the bells can only be heard within a fixed radius of the settlement, creating a psychological thought for most people to stay within the radius.
 * «Black Lily Sword» - an unknown Priority sword used by the Integrity Knight Scheta Synthesis Twelve. It was created from a black lily found on the battlefield of the last war that ended the «Age of Blood and Iron» in the Dark Territory.
 * «Blue Rose Sword» - a Priority Class 45 sword found in a cave at the Mountain Range at the Edge in the north and later acquired by Eugeo. The sword was created from a block of eternal ice, with a blue rose embedded in it, through seemingly natural means.
 * «Frost Scale Whip» - an unknown Priority whip used by the Integrity Knight Eldrie Synthesis Thirty-one. The whip was created from a two-headed snake which was the lord of the largest lake in the eastern empire and it has the ability to split into up to seven parts with the «Armament Full Control Art» and even turn into an actual snake if the second phase of the ritual is activated.
 * «Night Sky Sword»  - A Priority Class 46 sword used by Kirito. It was crafted from a branch of the Gigas Cedar tree that received the most energy from Solus (the Sun) and Terraria (the earth).
 * «Conflagrant Flame Bow» - an unknown Priority longbow used by the Integrity Knight Deusolbert Synthesis Seven. It has the ability to shoot powerful flaming arrows, capable of taking the form of a bird, when the «armament full control art» is cast on it. The longbow was created from a phoenix that lived in a volcano in the southern empire.
 * «Heaven Piercing Sword» - an unknown Priority sword used by the Integrity Knight Fanatio Synthesis Two. The sword was forged from a thousand mirrors and is capable of firing light rays when the armament full control art is cast on the sword. With the second phase of the ritual, the sword begins firing short bursts of the ultra-hot light rays in all directions every second, hitting both the opponent, the sword's wielder, and any bystanders within range.
 * «Fragrant Olive Sword» - an extremely high Priority sword used by Integrity Knight Alice Synthesis Thirty. The sword was created from an immortal fragrant olive tree and is capable of turning into hundreds of extremely sharp and powerful petals, even one of which can easily split a rock into two, with the armament full control art in effect.
 * «Time Piercing Sword» - an unknown Priority sword used by the Integrity Knight Bercouli Synthesis One. The sword was created from the needle of the «System Clock» in Centoria and has inherited its base material's ability to manipulate time, one of the known manipulations being the ability to "slash the future".
 * «Twin Edged Wings» - an unknown Priority set of throwing knives used by the Integrity Knight Renri Synthesis Twenty-seven. They were created from a pair of one-winged birds that combined the use of their single wings to fly together. With the use of the second phase of Armament Full Control, the knives combine into one, rotating too quickly for their noise to be heard in the audible spectrum, and can change directions mid-flight in order to foil an enemy's attempt at deflecting the attack.
