heartstone
Home's warming core
Heartstone is a rare or archaic term for a stone at the heart of something—the central stone of a hearth or fireplace, or figuratively, the emotional or spiritual center of a home or community.
The word appears occasionally in fantasy literature and gaming, where it often names a magical object tied to life force or belonging: The heartstone glowed when she returned to her village.
