Left in his shop on Christmas day, the package resembles a hat box. Pinstriped and a deep, emerald green.
Once opened, within lays a black tiara, glittering with limitless small stones.
When worn, Billy's vision changes dramatically. Most of the Faerie world fades into a softened, near-monochrome darkness, whereas all items that have belonged to, or interacted much with the Adopted, hold a nuanced and colored light, like auras, that will remind Billy, obscurely, of the owner. Recent contact between the Adopted are also hinted at, [OOC: pending player consent] in the admixture of color and tint, in the places or near the objects where the residents of Faerie spoke, sparred, or otherwise entangled.
Occasionally, the flickers of light might even suggest who they speaking about.
The card simply reads: "Some things are clearer in the dark." It is signed 'Claudia.'
