Amulet of the Fates

“	The relic that you hold, an amulet of the Sisters of Fate, will allow you to move swiftly through time while all around you slows.	”
–Gaia.

The Amulet of the Fates was a relic that belonged to the Sisters of Fate and was found by Kratos in the Temple of Lahkesis, in God of War II.

When used, it causes everything around the user to greatly slow down and take on a green hue, while the user continues to move at normal speed. The Amulet, however, could only be activated when it was close enough to a Fates Statue.

Abilities[]

Amulet Activate - Hold L1 and then press R1 (Touch its icon in PSVita) to temporarily slow time when near an active Statue of the Fates. Cannot be activated while Rage of the Titans is on. L1 + R1 (However, it can be activated during the Rage of the Titans if a sub-weapon is equipped, because the 'Prometheus' Flare' attack, which uses the L1 button, is only available with the Blades of Athena)

Trivia[]

In the novelization of God of War II it is revealed how Cronos' Rage and the Amulet of the Fates were compatible, with the power of the Titan Lord infact "feeding" the legendary artifact with the temporal energy to perform its "spells". However, the time magic put a big drain on Kratos' innate magical reservoir whenever activated.
- It is also shown that Kratos was already familiar with the artifact and its powers, having heard of it sometime before. As he approached the Amulet he somehow correctly recognized it as the Amulet of the Fates, despite seeing it for the first time. Overall, the novelization provides a detailed description of the way in which the Amulet and its time slowing spell works when activated.
The Amulet's effect on the physical world and its inhabitants can be compared to the "Realm Shift" ability possessed by some artifacts in the Norse realms such as Hofuð, the Bifröst-imbued sword of Heimdall. However, there are also some differences.
The Amulet of the Fates was chronologically the second item that was used by Kratos that can manipulate time. The first item was The Amulet of Uroborus in God of War: Ascension.
