a wayfarer's stone

Wayfarer's stones are obelisks which act as magical portals allowing travel between two different places. They are activated by a combination of three witcher signs. In The Witcher, wayfarer's stones are used to enter and exit three ancient crypts located in the swamp cemetery in Chapter V and each pair is activated with a unique combination of Igni and Aard.
