A bard has recently joined our party. In addition to adding a certain savoir faire, they can teleport, so we now have two teleporters. The possibilities are endless.

I have a small collection of objects I've retrieved from various locations to use to teleport back to those places. I am seeing no reason I can't give one to the bard, so that they can use it to teleport us to some place we visited before the bard joined us.

The teleport spell says (emphasis added):

Familiarity. "Permanent circle" means a permanent teleportation circle whose sigil sequence you know. "Associated object" means that you possess an object taken from the desired destination within the last six months, such as a book from a wizard's library, bed linen from a royal suite, or a chunk of marble from a lich's secret tomb.

RAW it looks to me like the caster doesn't have to have collected the object, am I missing anything?

I'm going to ask the GM, but I want to go in with the facts straight.
