I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to you out of concern for the number of sensory stones we have lost in the past few months. There was the loss of the modron's stone, stolen by the cambion Roog, and never found. Then there is the more recent matter of Factor Wheatley's unfortunate death and the loss of the stone he was guarding. It even seems possible for criminals to obtain blank sensory stones, as we discovered with the recording of the "fake" modron's stone, still in the custody of the Harmonium. I have also heard rumors of stones being lent out to persons completely unaffiliated with the Society.
The loss of these stones is quite upsetting, and I am sure they have not been the only ones. As they are our most precious resource, I would like to present a few ideas about how to better protect the sensoriums:
1) Stationing more guards at the entrances to the sensoriums - specifically, the private sensorium. The loss of the modron's stone could have been prevented if there had only been more than one attendant around the sensorium.
2) The authorization of an investigative team to track down missing stones. In the past, we have worked within the bounds of the law, and asked the Harmonium to help us find our stolen property. However, while there are a few good Harmonium officers, as a whole they have made it quite clear that they are uninterested in the task.
3) A re-cataloging of the stones. As we go through our archives, we could magically mark all of the stones to better scry their location should they be lost.
4) The warding of the sensoriums, or at least the private sensoriums. There are several Namers who are interested in looking into providing wards to keep the stones from "wandering off"
5) The construction or procurement of a "Wellspring of Worlds" - I have heard that this artifact could aid us in scrying the planes for lost stones.
I believe that Namer Trissa will be writing to you on this matter as well. I personally would like to organize the research into the Wellspring, and the cataloging of the sensory stones, should the Society be interested in carrying out any part of these plans.
Sincerely,
Factotum Sasha Andor
