This idea/suggestion is Open. You can respond to ask questions or discuss the idea and either vote it up or down if you believe it should or should not be implemented, respectively. Popular suggestions and ideas will be considered by the development team to become reality in-game.
Proposal
Create a device (must drop in house / building) that stores Chronicle Relic Fragments and when a button is selected from the device interface Reconstructs five Chronicle Relics from the fragments (if there are enough fragments and storage on the device). Storage would be fifty items total (stack of Chronicle Relic Fragments plus up to 49 Chronicle Relics). Operator would be able to right click on a Chronicle Relic in the device and Deconstruct it into fragments. And / Or, use the Deconstruct All button on the device that (with a confirmation button) Deconstructs all Chronicle Relics in the device to fragments. The regular loss of fragments when converting to Crystals and back would apply.

Recommend medium complexity device requiring Architect to craft w/ some parts from a Droid Engineer.
Justification
Make Chronicler profession easier to create quests.
Motivation
Right-clicking on fragments and reconstructing them into relics is very time consuming and Chroniclers are required to do dozens and dozens of times trying to get the relics they need for their quests.
Create a new device for Chroniclers
 
I really like this idea, I find chronicles cumbersome, this would make it a little easier, give more purpose to your home and get more people interested in doing the chronicles.
 
There is also the whole issue of reconstructing ‘random’ relics. I think your device should let the chronicle creator choose from the list of all available destroy/loot/craft/comm chronicles as well.

I’ve reconstructed a fair few now and there are still loads of missing NPC mobs, including Rebel/Imperial. I’ve yet to see a Princess Leia message drop for example.

I was thinking this as well, but since I've not started Chronicling yet, I was unsure how that would be put into the device. I got this idea dealing with my guilds Chronicler and seeing the pain it was to make quests. I'm not sure if the random nature is by design or the original designers / developers laziness first take on the process.

Have a quest for a machine that takes fragments and makes programmed relics at like double the cost of random generation.
 
I vaguely remember SoE hyping it up back in the day and the community being less than impressed with it. So I suspect it’s actually a half finished concept, hence the missing NPC.
