Aerith was enchanted by the array of colours that were placed before her. She smiled brightly and reached out to pick up a pretty blue gem and rolled it lightly between her fingers. "They're so pretty!" And to think that Maglor just kept these on him? She was impressed and felt she probably needed a little bag of these herself.

"Cracked? Oh no. Can they be repaired easily?" Aerith asked as she lowered the blue gem to lean forward a little to look at the broken one. Then she looked surprised. "War-braids?"

"They should be." Maglor nods. "It's easier to remind a cracked stone how to be whole than to form a new gem! And since it held light once before, it should not be hard to remind it how to do so again."

He smiles and gestures at his hair. "Aye. You didn't think I went to war with my hair down! War-braids specifically were something we adopted from our Sindar and Silvan allies in Beleriand, but we had been braiding even before then. We used set colors and patterns to represent allegiances and status."

"Remind...?" Aerith repeated slowly. She was the woman who talked to flowers. The fact that there was someone who talked to rocks shouldn't have been a surprise, and yet it was. To know there were others like her was always something of a shock. But she was still all smiles, absolutely enchanted by the idea. "How would you do that?"

"I never thought about that." She admitted honestly. Mainly because she hadn't realised that Maglor went to war often enough to have a designated hairstyle for it! It was fascinating to hear about, however. "We don't have anything like that where I'm from. I think... people use uniforms to designate status and allegiances and things like that."

"Well, you're the lady who speaks to flowers!" He smiles at her. "It's a little harder to speak to stone, tis true, but these came from my father's forge, and they have dwelt with me for many a long year. They know me, and I know their Song very well. One just needs to ... encourage the Song to fall back into the patterns of it's past. Much easier than trying to get a whole new one to do something it's never done before."

His smile is wry, a little sad, maybe. "Mm. We had armor and banners and heraldry, of course. But since we had to braid anyway... it was a useful designation."

Also, the enemy had a fondness for leaving only heads behind, and the braids were a way to get at least SOME news home - which is not something he wants to say to her.
