CALIGINOUS STONES OF FROBAR
The Caliginous Stones of Frobar were thought to have all been lost at
sea in the great storm of 738 GUE, but one was discovered on
Discipline Beach by a man (with the alias of "
Detective Softly") during
the
Great Monster Uprising.
Upon
discovery, it was addressed
G.U.E. Tech with chalk, and mailed to the the
Grand Wizard who
intended to use it to power a
machine capable of creating a
Blaine
field. Unfortunately, the chalk did not rub off and smudged everything.
The only equipment capable of removing the impurity was
St. Quakko's
Sacred Soap and Towel Set. The relic cleansed the Caliginous Stone,
which was then able to be used in the Dex Machine. When the device
was put to use, a
demon smashed it, warping the Caliginous Stone to
Frobar in the impact. While it was still functional, the stone did
cause the device to randomly explode. To prevent this, the wizards
recalibrated the magical frequencies of all the pieces individually
using the
Cardinal's Toolbox.
