Shackles worn by a tortured prisoner.
Hidden lore — revealed in game at high Inferno
As Queen Sophesia's memories gradually returned to her, she recalled who had tortured her in the past and why. But when she experienced the great agonies of her heart anew, such physical torment was rendered utterly insignificant in comparison.

How it compares
No standout stat — 47th of 87 gauntlets for physical defence, and similarly mid-table elsewhere. Worth wearing for its set or its look rather than its numbers.

Alternatives at a similar weight
Other gauntlets within a quarter of this one's 5.8 weight, so swapping does not force a rebuild of the rest of the loadout. Ordered by physical defence.
