Waystones

While traveling through the regions touched by the former Iescalonian, Marranth, and Xanarran empires a vigilant traveler cannot fail to notice the odd recurrence of these short obelisks roughly three feet in height. They are built from ancient stone of an unknown variety and carved with a magical runic language that appears to have been devised specifically for their use. The waystones form a sort of transportation network that was reprogrammable and alterable by the magisters of those three empires. With their fall in 400 LCY, however, the knowledge of how to effectively use these stones, let alone reprogram them, has been long lost. It is a frequent occurrence that in the vicinity of the stones people will see spirits of the long dead trying to interact with them still. Some have speculated that when many of those lost empires perished, the stones retained the memory of their travels. However, even the necromancers that specialize in speaking with the dead have been incapable of interacting with these spirits. Perhaps they hold some clue to the functioning of the stones.
