I have been searching everywhere for answers to two questions and can't find them anywhere.
First, in #5-23, Cairn of Shadows, the agents are supposed to recover the shadow obelisk. However, as soon as they take it out of the cairn, it "fades away like smoke."
Then, in #6-02, Nigel uses the shadow obelisk to reshape and remake the Blakros Museum. Where did he get the obelisk if it faded away?
Second question. Are the powers of the obelisk actually detailed anywhere? I know about Nigel's use of it, obviously, and that Hamaria later uses it to send agents to the Shadow Realm but is there actually any detailed write up of what the shadow obelisk can do?

It may be that reports from Cairn of Shadow inspired Nigel to track down a shadow obelisk of his own. Or maybe the museum already had one, and this just inspired him to come up with a new way to use it.
"Unholy minor artifacts, medallions called shadow
obelisks, controlled the gateways from Barrowmoor to
the prison demiplanes and allowed their possessors to
control aspects of each demiplane."
I am pretty sure that is the closest it comes to stating out what they do.

It's not given the "stat block" treatment in any scenario I've played/GMed (#2-11, #5-23, #6-02, #10-18).
I think it's a Macguffin.
