This isn't really a relic, per se: it's just an
ordinary book written by Saint John Climacus.
Well, this version was written and published in
Heaven, incorporated into its pages everything that
the blessed soul could discover about the nature of
angels and Heaven in three hundred years of patient
questioning, and makes demons queasy just to look at
it, but other than that, it's just an ordinary book.
:The Ladder of Perfection: is most often found in
angelic Tethers, where it's assigned as an study aid
to those attempting to shed dissonance. There's no
real game benefit (although particularly benevolent
GMs might allow someone who's constantly and
exclusively studying the book to slightly increase the
rate that they shed dissonance): it's mentioned for
local color. However, as it is a level/0 relic, it
can be used as the basis for unique artifacts. Many
copies are minor reliquaries or talismans, for those
angels with a scholarly bent.
