All jokes aside - have we all gotten these mysterious black and white rocks? Because I'm starting to think they're more than just geology samples.

Rocks just don't appear in random places. Do they?

I suppose we can take comfort in the fact that we've been touching them and nothing's gone to hell, but yeah, probably not normal.

Maybe something would happen if we put them all together? No clue WHAT would happen, of course....

The stones don't feel like they're particularly actively magical or anything, they just look unusual as all get up. I kinda like the way they look though.

I'm with Topaz though, they've got to mean something and we might as well find out what.

NO PUTTING THE ROCKS TOGETHER!!!

Like Topaz said, we've all handled them, so if they were going to do something based on our individual signatures, that ship's sailed. But to avoid risking anything else, I want you all to put your rock in the safest, most secure place you have, in your own room. No point tempting fate by putting them all together in the XF magic safe. I'll keep mine out for research purposes.

And speaking of research... Topaz, Billy and Megan, there's some work to be done. We need to figure out what these things are, and where they came from. Meet me when I get back from the office tonight and we can work out a game plan.

Stephen and Clea... business as usual for now, but if ANYTHING weird happens that you didn't cause, let me know asap, right? No taking chances here.
