The Stone of Souls

The Stone of Souls is the spirit of the world. It is the largest of the Stones but also the lightest for it has no physical mass. Think of it as a very large shell-less balloon. It is considered to be the most valuable gift to mankind and all of Stonesways. The “bearer” of this Stone is actually a misnomer for in reality, the Stone of Souls bears its keeper. It flashes then vanishes as the old Queen leaves the realm only to reappear upon its new keeper. How she is chosen is a mystery for the Stone decides. But once she is, the new Queen is engulfed in a brilliant glow that swirls around her. It again flashes and the new Queen appears upon her waiting throne. The magic of it all is such a wonderful enigma.
