Blehh. So I have a magical object in my story. It comes in around the end, when it's revealed to be the cause of recent natural disasters such as earthquakes and lightning storms. The object belongs to an extinct branch of the Vazkyrohk culture, which was governed by warlocks. These warlocks used mathematics to create objects designed to amplify magic. Over the centuries they've lain dormant, some of these objects have become corrupted by stagnant magic and are dangerously unstable when used.
I can't figure out what the objects look like, or how they function. I was thinking a metal cube with a lodestone suspended in its center (magic in this universe is connected to the magnetic field of the earth), with carved channels amplifying the magic. Would it make sense for the object to have to be used in a special room (one carved with the same channels), to make it even more powerful? For plot purposes, it needs to be non-transportable.
I don't know, I'm just really stumped on this one. I feel like some input would help me organize my thoughts.
