Syntax: cast 'dispatch lodestone' <object>

A unique working born of earth and air magics, dispatch lodestone allows a mage to charge an object made of stone with magnetic force and send it flying about the world. The lodestone will move about randomly from room to room, collecting coins and light metal objects from the ground and even occasionally from inventories. Eventually the stone will return to the caster, bearing its load of collected items; should a closed door or other physical obstruction prevent its return, the stone will instead drop in place. Upon reaching the caster or dropping in place, the stone will demagnetize, becoming once again as it once was, and anything it collected will spill to the ground. This spell may not be cast underwater. Those who are learned in the stonecraft skill will generally avoid losing items from their inventories to the lodestone.
