The novels in this trilogy are Azure Bonds 1988 The Wyvern s Spur 1990 Song of the Saurials 1991 The titular Finder s Stone is a magical artifact created by the bard Dungeons & Dragons bard Finder Wyvernspur , an orange gem with a core of para elemental ice. The stone has two main functions the ability to guide its possessor to a desired object using a beam of light, and the ability to project an illusory image of Finder performing his songs. This latter function was actually the stone s primary purpose, as Finder had become obsessed with ensuring that his works endured beyond his death.

It was ultimately destroyed by Finder when he extracted the sliver of para elemental ice and used it to slay the god Moander .
