Rock tells you, "I can not (sic) be sure if my messages are getting through, I have had no response. If you are out there please let me know, I must not give up hope."

Rock tells you,"I guess I will just have to hope my messages are getting through. Maybe if I can boost my power I will be able to communicate better. I will have to come up with a plan."

Rock tells you, "I can barely feel the energy of other rocks in this world. If those rocks are brought to me it should strength (sic) my energy. Please, if you can hear this, bring those rocks to me."

Rock tells you, "No thanks to anyone else, I connected with some other stones flowing with energy the same as this one and attracted them to this spot. There are still a few more stones out there that I could use, bring them to me if you can. Once I have them all, the truth will be revealed."

"A strong stone indeed, but I do not feel a connection with it."

North Dires rocks seem to be special in some way. One in 5 or so get you a different message.

Rock tells you, "Ahh yes, I can feel the energy within that stone, place it here next to me so that I may reconnect with it."

Credit goes to Baku Baku of LC for being the first to get it.

Rock tells you, "Ahh yes, I can feel the energy within that stone, place it here next to me so that I may reconnect with it."
