The Allure

 is an Influence in the Apostle Entheate legacy, key to achieving a major victory. It is obtained by Dreaming The Lesser Crossroads with A Dream of a Key and A Splendour.

Maintain The Allure
"In the blue dream of the Mansus, it is sometimes possible to carry light in one's cupped hands. ... I open my hands above the roots of the Allure, where it clings to the soil. New fruit swells in its branches, and the Crossroads is paler again."

Studying The Allure with a Fascination will consume the Fascination and reset the Allure's decay timer to 180s.

Send a Maid-in-the-Mirror to lure a Witness
"My Maid will lead the sleeping soul through the White Door, and bear them up the Ascent of Knives, until what is left of it sees the Allure at the Crossroads."

Talk to a Maid-in-the-Mirror about The Allure and after 60s it will either create The Witnesses: One of Seven or grab an existing version of the Witnesses and upgrade it after 10s.

The Gate Opens Outwards
The Allure may be used in the Rite Intercalate to achieve the major victory, the Third Mode.
