Contract of glyphic attenuation is a contract used to challenge Yama to a more difficult fight for the bottom piece of the purifying sigil. It can be dropped by Yama himself through opening dossiers, or via black, greater, and lesser demons in the Chasm of Fire after the player has agreed to Yama's terms by speaking to him after A Kingdom Divided.
To obtain this contract from the demons in the Chasm of Fire, the final blow must come from special attacks. The drop rate will 5x while the yellow sigil is active above their heads. Players can speak to the Disciple of Yama outside the chasm to learn about which sigil is currently active.
The contract is consumed upon starting the fight, although if successful the challenger will receive the contract again as a drop. Yama will not drop standard loot upon completion of this contract.

Trivia
- The Morse code written on the item is intended to spell the word "CONTRACT". However, the "A" (.-) is erroneously written as "N" (-.), so it says "CONTRNCT" instead, and this mistake is present in all of Yama's contracts.
