'''Step 23'''

The '''Symbol of Preservation''', governed by Lady [[Lorminstra]], is obtained upon completion of the 23rd step of the [[Order of Voln]]. This symbol acts to strengthen the bonds of spirit to body in a target (or oneself), similar to the [[Cleric Base]] spell [[Preservation (305)]], or the contents of a [[white flask]]. Preservation, regardless of the source, is also commonly referred to as 'life keep'.

== Using the Symbol of Preservation ==

;Syntax: symbol of preservation (target)
*The target is optional - use of the symbol without a target will default to oneself.
*This symbol can even be used when [[Death's Sting|dead]], to preserve the souls of the Volner and any group members.
*This symbol preserves the corpse for 30 seconds per member's rank with a thirteen-minute maximum at mastery.

==[[Favor]] Cost==
{{Spoiler}}

Favor cost is based on the member's level. See [[Favor#Symbol Use Favor Cost|Table]] for specific examples. Each use has a relative favor cost of 6x [[Symbol of Protection]].

===[[Favor]] Required to Obtain Symbol of Preservation ===

'''Formula: <tt>2200 + (( level2 × 40) ÷ 3 )</tt>'''

Ex. level 15 member: <tt>2200 + ((15 × 15 × 40) ÷ 3) = 5200 favor</tt>

Ex. level 20 member: <tt>2200 + ((20 × 20 × 40) ÷ 3) = 7533 favor</tt>

===Monk's Teaching and Instruction Highlights===

*Explains the importance of having studied all previous lessons.
*Lorminstra has shown us how to preserve our own spirits, even when dead in order to delay decaying.

=== [[Wehnimer's Landing]] Task ===
To gain Lorminstra's blessing, one must help one that has not found the favor of the Gods to do so.
*First, find a player with no deeds. Usually, this is easiest to accomplish by seeking out the Clerk's office or low-level hunting grounds.
*Take the above-mentioned character to the altar in Lorminstra's Temple: (Lich ID 7523)
**From TSC: E, E, E, S, S, E, Go temple, Go altar
*At the altar, type say Lorminstra, give (other character) my deed.
*If you receive the message "As you begin to utter the words, your mouth closes up and you cannot speak them." this means you have 0 deeds to give away.
*One deed will be removed from you and transferred to the other player, and your task will be completed.
*Return to monk to receive symbol (Lich ID: 18190)

=== [[Ta'Vaalor]] Task ===
