What are the actual consequences of using this item? Item description states 'beware fickle use of this item'.
1 Answer
These are the uses of the stone (Informative to those who doesn't know):
Sends back phantoms in your world (not invaders) to their world.
You being the phantom, this stone sends you back to your world (Also works if you're an invader).
Vanishes NPC phantom allies (beware as their summon sign won't appear again even after resting at the bonfire. A friend of mine mentioned that it shows up again if you reload the game.
If you're the host and use it, you can see your victories as a phantom.
Actual Answer
The reason for the "beware fickle use of this item" warning is because if you use it either as a phantom or as a host to send back people, you are committing a sin. I've only tested it as the host sending someone back and it did add me sin.

Contrary to popular belief, the use of this item does not count toward disconnecting you from cooperative play. This is only caused by "unlawful" disconnecting (resetting your console/pulling the ethernet etc.) and will not cause you to need to use the Bone of Order.– BenCommented Nov 21, 2014 at 2:03

Does it still reward the one you summoned when you leave? For example: You are invading as a member of the Bell Covenant, but they decide to gang up and you bail out right away.– meruCommented Apr 27, 2015 at 23:23
