Where is the One stone?

Post by Revan »

Where exactly is the stone, that the Orcest came from? Where did they get it? Who got it? Does anyone know?

Maybe some supercrystallized rock from the depths of Melenkurion Skyweir... maybe Berek went there (was Earthblood known in Berek's time? Damelon surely knew about it)

Since SRD did not touch on its nature or location I would assume the one stone would be located somewhere as unique as the One Tree. Perhaps it may play a part of the Last Chronicles. :-)

Is this a hypothetical, or did SRD ever mention a "One Stone?" I don't remember any such reference.

It's the One Rock, and it's mentioned briefly in The Illearth War when Tohrm gives Covenant a piece of Orcrest in the courtyard of Revelstone, just before they all leave...

I would look beneath Mount Thunder myself, or possibly Andelain. This is assuming that the presence of the One Rock would have any effects at all on places above it.

Oh yes, and exactly what _was_ the effect of the One Rock?

*sniff* Well, it did!

I think it might be in Andelain. Or was. Remember when the ground blew up in WGW?

Nothing is known of the One Rock, other than that orcrest are pieces of it. (I'll leave the horrible joke for somebody else.) Maybe geological upheaval has something to do with it.

But here's a thought. There's the One Rock, and the Illearth Stone. There's the One Tree...

there is the one tree and the one rock...is there also other "One" natural entities in the land?
For example the "One Air" or the "One Sea"
