Although a very rare drop, this item has little trade value, especially when compared to its blue-tinted brother,
Nightwing's Veil. Sorry to disappoint you if you're price checking this after finding it the first time!
The Veil might have a niche use to provide resistances for your mercenary if you socket the Veil with a
Hel rune to lower its strength requirement, but at that point you may as well use
Kira's Guardian instead to also gain the Cannot be Frozen trait.
The Veil is a nod to a quest in the first Diablo game, in which you receive the item as a reward for finding a spectral elixir for the cursed undead knight Lachdanan. Once Lachdanan drinks the elixir, he is freed from his curse and gives you the Veil off his own head before dying at last.
