Chimes

From Sword of Truth Wiki

The Chimes, or the Chimes of Death or Chimes of Doom when translated from High D'Haran, are dangerous underworld magic, that if released into the world of life, will completely absorb magic. The presence of the chimes in the world of the living alone will extinguish magic at an alarming rate. If they are present for too long of a time, magic will never again be restored to the world. Not only do the Chimes dissolve all earthly magic, but they also dissolve the world's bond to other worlds - such as the Underworld. Some of the damage caused by the chimes will remain forever ireparable.

The three chimes are known as; Reechani, Sentrosi and Vasi. They represent; water, fire, and air respectively.
