The badge which every Monitor Assistant is required to wear. It suggests her transition from a student to an instructor, and it is also the symbol of growing from naivete to maturity.

This simple, classic brooch is a relic from the interviewee's British veteran grandfather, who inherited it from his wife. It is a rarely seen pure topaz, and the emotional bond embodied in it is invaluable.

A necklace with clear South Asian influences, encrusted with green crystals, garnets, and many other jewels.
The interviewee had not intended to buy it until the stall owner at Chauhari Market hinted that this antique necklace would bring good fortune and make wishes come true.
Thus she hurriedly paid a large fistful of rupees.

A portable shoulder bag, with an oval-shaped body that can hold a water bottle and other small items. For this hard-won trip, the interviewee has made adequate preparations.

A traditional dyeing method with auspicious connotations. The dyes used were organic and lasted for a week.
According to the interviewee, this was drawn by an Arcanist artist in Jaipur, with its ancient botanic design signifying good fortune and clearer insights for those who divined the future.
