Rock is just that - rock.
Bones are bones as a butchering product, not raw corpses or skeletons.

He either needs the bone first, and then the stone, or he needs specific type of stone. Use 't' to see if he's collected anything and just needs one as well. He might have collected something unnoticed by you.

For the first case, butcher a dead animal. Your dwarves should do this by default if you have a dwarf with butchery enabled. If you have butchery enabled on a dwarf, and still don't have bone, you might lack animal corpses, or they're laying useless outside. For the latter, use 'o'-'r'-'o' to tell your dwarves to collect corpses outside. If you don't have animal corpses at all, use your military if you have one, and slay some wild animals roaming around, or try enabling hunting on a dwarf with marksdwarf skill. Alternatively if you have pasture animals you don't care about, just slaughter one of them.

For the second case, dig down and hope you strike whatever your fey mooder wants.

thanks, i unforbid all the stone in my junk and butchered some horses and the fey mood was succesful.

Why, what did he make?

i dont rmember exactly, but i think it was some worthless rock sceptor adorned with bones and gems.
