"I don't know. I just had a fleeting presentiment, and even now it's gone. But we still have time to practice our swordsmanship before the wedding, and it can't hurt us to get less rusty and more skilled, respectively," her mother told Marea. Hawkeye supported this plan. "Being prepared is the best luck," he said, quoting a favored proverb of his people. "Probably nothing untoward will happen at all, either to us or to you. Still, you should never turn down an offer of help or of teaching."

"And it's good to hear you accept the usefulness of other methods of magic, because I've assembled a mini-arsenal of potion powders for you to fall back on in case you get into trouble while I'm away. It's much less extensive than what I carry, but it should help you out in a pinch. Also I think we should work on your swordplay; we could both stand to improve, there," Brin finished. "Mom, what sort of catastrophe do you think is going to happen while you're on your Honeymoon? I'll be fine."

"Just because crystals may not be your main forte, doesn't mean you can't use or benefit from them. This is still a good ring for you. I've attuned the stones to your personal powers," Marea told her seriously. "Besides, if I were making a ring purely for myself, I might not lean so heavily on the color green, and the properties of defense, emotion, and healing." "No," her mother said proudly, "you're more of a visionary at heart, a seeker and a finder of new things, or old ones once lost."

Peridot was a sun-devoted stone, bringing about abundance in all areas of life, and also excelled at influencing emotional healing, among other things. The two stones together were concurrently grounding and challenging, but would greatly aid Brin in her healing practices. They would furthermore help to ward off evil magic, and indeed, evil intent of whatever sort. "Are you sure you're designing this ring for me, and not yourself?" Brin had teased. "It seems more suited to a crystal caster."

This gem, formed from a meteor hitting the Earth, was flanked by several tiny Peridot crystal points of spring green. It was uniquely beautiful, in addition to being a very powerful piece of jewelry. Moldavite, in particular, long associated with magic, was not a stone for a beginner, as it had profound effects upon the wearer, causing spiritual uplifting, mental expansion, and emotional healing, being attuned to the heart chakra. It was also a strong catalyst for change, and for other stones.
