This is a small, irregularly shaped basalt rock. You recognize it as a loadstone, an object devised by some twisted mind for no apparent purpose
beyond tormenting the unwary. The innocuous-looking little rock is incredibly heavy, and as soon as one touches it to pick it up, its curse takes effect,
binding it to its newly-burdened victim. You appraise it at less than one gold.
It is in perfect condition.
It looks about three twentieths of a dimin across. It weighs about two and seventeen twentieths dekans.

After a moment, the knowledge that the loadstone is composed of eighty-seven percent basalt and twelve percent dweomer drifts into your mind
like a long-forgotten memory.

* Burdens you.
** No, really, that's it. You cannot be rid of it without a removal of curses.
