The unraveler worked perfectly. In addition to mary useless items, the magnetic bottle contained one well-known lost relic: the arm of saint Gennareus.
He was a bishop abducted by the Sani Sabik, and kept alive for his blood to be harvested and used in demonic rites. While in captivity, he prayed fervently to God to make his blood unusable for these rites, and in response the Lord petrified his blood, which of course killed him, allowing him a martyr's death. Other accounts say that he drank a poison that coagulated his blood in his veins.
His corpse was thrown away by the Sabik as there was no useful liquid blood any more in it. Beetles ate his flesh, and bone worms consumed his skeleton. The only part not touched by the scavenger insects was the petrified blood. His body turned into a strange red network, a latticework of arteries and veins all the way down to the smallest capillaries, a three dimensional system of threads in the shape of a human. All other parts were gone, except for a large heart-shaped clump in the midst of the latticework.
His body was divided in several relics for different important planets and Houses, but his right arm has been missing for two thousand years.
I am happy to bring it back to the Theology Council in Amarr!
