Stone stand

Stone stand is a piece of scenery featured in the Grand Tree and Waterfall Quests.

Grand Tree
The stand is located in the Watch tower in Glough's house and Pebbles are used on it to reveal a secret ladder to Grand Tree dungeon.

When the player is placing the runes, they get a message of the type:
 * on top are four pebble size indents
 * they span from left to right
 * you place the pebble...
 * To the far left
 * Centre left
 * Centre right
 * To the far right

Choosing a place leads
 * you place the pebble in the indent
 * it crumbles into dust

Pushing down the stand leads to (when wrongly aligned):
 * you push down on the pillar
 * you feel it shift downwards slightly
 * you here some noise below the pillar...
 * ...but nothing seems to happen

Or (when aligned correctly):
 * you push down on the pillar
 * you feel it shift downwards slightly
 * the pillar shifts back revealing a ladder
 * it seems to lead down through the tree trunk
 * climb down
 * you squeeze down the inner of the tree trunk
 * you drop out of the bottom onto a mud floor
 * around you, you can see piles of strange looking rocks
 * you here the sound of small footsteps coming from the darkness
 * come back later
 * you decide to come back later

Waterfall Quest
There are six stands by the Chalice of eternity and Statue of glarial, in the northwest chamber of the Waterfall Dungeon. Air, water and earth runes are used on each one, as hinted by book on baxtorian, to unlock the puzzle and get to the chalice.

When the player is placing the runes, they get a message of the type:
 * you place the [rune] on the stand
 * the rune stone crumbles into dust

The necessary [rune] being "water rune", "earth rune", and "air rune" If the player has already placed a rune in the rune stand then they get:
 * "you have already placed an air rune here" for the case of air or
 * "you have already placed a [rune] here" for the case of earth and water

Examine: On top is an indent the size of a rune stone
