The Legend of The Stone

Summary

Since a time lost to memory, the Kenku of The Coven have passed down the legend of an ancient stone. The knowledge would typically come from the elders and Archdruids, which they would then passed on to their kin. They say the stone has the power to change history in a way similar to The Fates card found in the Deck of Many Things. Unlike the card, however, the stone does not rend the stream of time. Instead, it observes the effects caused by an event in the past and removes the effects reactively in the present day. Also unlike the card, there is no limit to the scale at which one could make these changes. The Kenku covet these stones in hopes of undoing the curse that prevents them from being able to fly. Many believe the Kenku teach their young to fixate on small, shiny objects that they can easily swipe and pocket. The more Kenku children that have this fixation, the more likely the race as a whole will one day fly again.
