History
Legend has it that the origin of the Quack Stone is intertwined with a tale of divine guidance and collaboration between mortal and deity. It is said that long ago, a devout follower of the holy duck received a divine vision during a period of meditation. In this vision, the deity led the faithful soul to a distant, secluded mountain hidden deep within the wilderness.
With unwavering faith and a burning desire to fulfil the divine will, the follower embarked on a perilous journey to reach the mountain. Guided by whispers of the sacred duck and a deep sense of purpose, they braved treacherous terrain and overcame countless challenges along the way.
Upon reaching the mountain, the follower discovered a hidden cave nestled within its rugged cliffs. Illuminated by a soft, ethereal glow, the cave emanated an undeniable aura of divine presence. It was within this hallowed space that the follower discovered an unassuming stone, plain and unadorned.
As the follower reached out to touch the stone, a surge of profound energy coursed through their being. The deity's voice echoed in their mind, urging them to shape the stone into a vessel of wisdom and reverence. Guided by divine inspiration, the follower carved and sculpted, pouring their heart and soul into every delicate stroke.
Days turned into weeks, and weeks into months, as the follower tirelessly toiled, guided by the holy duck's whispers and visions. Finally, the stone took the form we now know as the Quack Stone - a mesmerising creation embodying the essence of the divine duck and holding the collective wisdom of the deity's teachings.
Overjoyed and humbled by their role in this divine endeavour, the follower carried the Quack Stone back to the duckfolk, where it was met with awe and reverence. The stone became a sacred relic, cherished by generations as a symbol of their deep connection to the holy duck.
