The Gloves of Glistening Runes drop from Keristrasza in the Nexus on heroic mode.
These gloves are in some ways a memorial to Keristrasza, a red dragon who was imprisoned by Malygos when she refused to bow to him. After she was released from the arcane prison he locked her in, she continued the fight against him in the Nexus War and lured Saragosa, Malygos’s consort, to her death. In vengeance, Malygos forced Keristrasza to be his new consort. He tormented her and branded her body with runes—like those on these gloves— until she went madder than him. The only escape for her after that was death.[1]
