DIA, an intelligence agency affiliated with USNA's Department of Defense, tasked specifically with handling affairs pertaining to military intelligence. With that in mind, it would be fair to ask why such an organization would take interest in an unearthed object of unknown archaeological value.

Magic had its value amplified further beyond a direct equivalent to conventional military power, and is now being regarded as a possibly significant component in the underlying social infrastructure that supports it.
