The Gauntlets are in the Archives, as one of Raphael's newest acquisitions. They are in the northernmost corner of the room (X:-6548, Y:2939). The platform the Gauntlets are on is rigged with a pressure plate, so they can either be swapped out with another pair of gauntlets or the trap can be disarmed before the item is stolen. Then, the party can sneak off, as with stealing anything.

If the party intends to steal either their [[Soul-Sworn Contract]] in [[Escape the Deal]] or the Orphic Hammer in [[Deal with the Devil]]/[[Save Hope]], then disarming the trap and sneaking to steal the gauntlets is unnecessary, as the alarm goes off anyways once the Hammer/Contract is taken. Simply take them before leaving the room after taking the item.

=== Returning to Helsik ===
Once the party has returned from Hell, Helsik demands the gauntlets. They can be handed over, or the party can refuse. If the party refuses, Helsik no longer does business with them. The party can also pay off the gold fee instead of handing over the gauntlets.
Once the party has returned from Hell, Helsik demands the Gauntlets. They can be handed over, or the party can refuse. If they are handed over, they won't appear in Helsik's trading inventory, but they can be pickpocketed back. If the party refuses to hand them over, Helsik will no longer trade with the party. The party can also pay off the gold fee instead of handing over the Gauntlets.


Additionally you can try to deceive her (DC 10) by saying you don't have the Gauntlets. If you succeed she'll say that invalidates the bargain and demand payment for the trip. At this point you can tell her you're leaving with the Gauntlets, can't afford the fee or try to intimidate her (DC 10) by saying "I just killed a devil in his own home. You really don't want to test my patience". Intimidating her allows you to keep the Gauntlets and continue to trade with her.

* It's possible that Helsik can have the Gauntlets in her shop after they are handed over, for a heavily discounted price (which doesn't seem to work on Honour mode).
