A pair of magical engraved stones used by [[Salima]] to communicate with the high-priest of the [[Cult of the Reptile God]]. The [[Scavenger's League of Fortuna]] took one from the high-priest and used it to ambush [[Salima]].
_Sending Stones_ come in pairs, with each stone carved to match the other so the pairing is easily recognized. While you touch one stone, you can cast [Sending](https://www.dndbeyond.com/spells/2619015-sending) from it. The target is the bearer of the other stone. If no creature bears the other stone, you know that fact as soon as you use the stone, and you don’t cast the spell.
Once _Sending_ is cast using either stone, the stones can’t be used again from that stone until the next dawn. If one of the stones in a pair is destroyed, the other one becomes nonmagical.
