Normal Powers do not require Power Stones to be unlocked.
On your next turn, you could use the instrument to cast a spell, but then it disappears at the end of that turn, and you have to recreate it on your third turn. Flea market trinkets a wagon, a sandal, a cowboy hat are dwarfed by the dominating rusty and bent nails of life and its challenges that the artist wrenches from decaying boards.
As they navigate their way through the pirate-infested island, the siblings encounter various challenges and discoveries. They learn about the harsh realities of pirate life, the danger of buried treasure, and the importance of teamwork. Along the way, Jack and Annie befriend a young boy named Morgan, who dreams of becoming a pirate.
Can trinkets created by the Prestidigitation cantrip substitute material components?
The prestidigitation cantrip (SRD V5.1, p. 170) allows the caster to create a number of magical effects, one of which is:
You create a non-magical trinket or an illusory image that can fit in your hand and that lasts until the end of your next turn.
Our group has had all our items taken away, including component pouches and arcane focuses. Certain materials definitely seem like something prestidigitation can make as a trinket such as a magnifying glass. Assuming the material is cheap (no cost stated) and is not consumed by the spell, can prestidigitation make the material components as trinkets? Even if the person casting it can't use it (since they've used their turn) can another character hold and use it?

But "in my opinion" yes or no is not a valid answer here on RPG.SE. You need to back up answers with rules, or evidence, or a designer statement, or something. Every poster knows by asking the question that it could be X or Y and there's probably people that advocate for X and Y. Only one of the answers below is even attempting to use the game rules to support their conclusion. \$\endgroup\$
