Dreamkiss Brooch
This small iron brooch is shaped like a pair of puckered lips, its reverse engraved with a dozen names in tiny script.
Gifted by a Pentolan ambassador, this work’s effects were confirmed to my satisfaction: when the wearer kisses someone they have feelings for their body shifts, molding itself towards their own idealized form; in exchange, they become less physically attractive to whoever they kissed.
I sometimes regret trying this even once; I remain so grateful that it was never just our flesh
that brought us together.
