Trivia

The Embers of Hope are similar to the Catalyst Idols in Book 2: A vision will be displayed to the relevant catalyst, that will be seen by both them and your character.
- If you end the story with Vaanu's Ending, all of these futures seemingly become true for the Catalysts.
- While the Idols show various futures of the events on La Huerta, the Embers show alternate futures where the Catalysts never went to La Huerta in the first place.
- Also, while the Idol visions are only seen by Your Character, the Ember visions are seen by both you and the relevant Catalyst.
- Unlike the Catalyst Idols, there are only 11. One for each Catalyst member except your own.
- If you do not salvage an Ember of Hope, it will burn to ash. Before an item is obtained, it will be wreathed in blue fire. If the Ember is salvaged, the fire will go away and the image will solidify.
- Unlike the Catalyst Idols, Your Character is not required to touch the item in order to experience the vision. Grace Hall is locked alone in a room when she receives hers, and Zahra Namazi is several feet away when they experience their visions. However, Your Character still experiences the visions even if he/she does not touch the item.
- Every time an Ember is salvaged. the relevant Catalyst gains +2 affinity.
The total cost of all 11 Embers are 120 Diamonds.
All Embers are given by Vaanu directly to the Catalyst to whom it matches when they are overwhelmed or in despair.
If the Ember is obtained, the relevant Catalyst keeps the item with them. Raj Bhandarkar actually makes reference to it in later dialogue if he has it.
