The Guardians of Stonegate:
Histories and Lore
1.) History of the Ether Stone:
In the words of Grarine Felwynd
Pulled from a the annuals of an ancient tome.
They were utilizing a corrupted form of the very shrine stone used to build our testaments to the Virtues. Unless their reserves of this substance could be found, the threat would remain. Several parties of adventurers made the dangerous quest and eventually found all of the corrupted chunks of shrine stone.

Written in Grarines handwriting a small note is attached to this article.
At last I think I have found the origin of our stone, I do not beleive that all the parties of adventurers were virtuous and so one chunk of the Lich twins reserves were not returned to the Sage Humboldt. It is my belief that the components of the corrupted shrine stone were ground up much like the lich twins did and made into this Obelisk of changing shape. I have witnessed the stone turn as small as a copper or as large as a building. Magical indeed, I have much work to do to unlock its secrets. Since my son brought it to me and it holds no name that I know of, I shall call it the Lycan Stone in honor of him.
