Mneta looks at the clasp and then at Shyeal.  "This means much to you.  Come with me.  Let me give you a remembrance of me."  Mneta leads Shyeal to a booth, an alcove with electronics within and places the brooch inside.  "Computer, scan and analyze this, then make a duplicate with two lines of text at the perimeter.  The outermost line of concentric text to read..." and she speaks a language Shyeal has never heard.  "The innermost line of text will be the translation of the first line, in Alvar, both at approximately 1/10 the radius of the circle, holographic display of appearance before synthesis".  A flickering light zips back and forth across the broach, which sparkles at the touch of the beam.  Then an illusion of the broach appears, looking identical to the original ("Tree" in the center) but two lines of text appear in the perimeter of the broach.  Before she can make out the words in Elvish, Mneta says "Perfect.  Duplicate."  The lights scan the broach again, machines whir and hum, then stop with a clank that sounds like a broach dropped in a metal drawer.  Mneta waves her hand over the lights and the drawer emerges automatically.  Mneta hands her the duplicate broach.  "We made these duplication machines in case we needed emergency repairs, we could always get missing parts."  Mneta says as she places the broach in Shyeals hand and closes her hand over it.  "I'll come back to visit, even if I have to buy my own ship.", then Mneta hugs her.<br/><br/><div style="padding: 3px; background-color: #FFFFFF; border: 1px solid #d8d8d8; font-size: 1em;"><div style="text-transform: uppercase; border-bottom: 1px solid #CCCCCC; margin-bottom: 3px; font-size: 0.8em; font-weight: bold; display: block;"><span onclick="if (this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display != '') {  this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display = ''; this.innerHTML = '&lt;b&gt;Spoiler: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;a href=\'#\' onClick=\'return false;\'&gt;hide&lt;/a&gt;'; } else { this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display = 'none'; this.innerHTML = '&lt;b&gt;Spoiler: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;a href=\'#\' onClick=\'return false;\'&gt;show&lt;/a&gt;'; }"><b>Spoiler: </b><a href="#" onclick="return false;">show</a></span></div><div class="quotecontent"><div style="display: none;">(There's a good possibility that Cheerwind will follow, either way, there's also a good chance the friends will break into tears)</div></div></div><br/><br/>When Shyeal finally gets the chance to read the broach, she can't make out the ring of the first language, but the Elvish translation reads: "The end of one adventure.
