Girl, you need to think about what meaning things have, not just what fun they are. These tokens are meant to be hard to reproduce so you can prove you're from the Freehold when you meet other changelings. Showing this token in the right places will open doors, give you food and shelter, or get you the favors you need to survive.

If you break it or lose it, you'll need to find it because we don't replace these. If you're careless with it or, worse, you intentionally abuse it, someone will hunt you down to discuss the problem. This is now a part of your identity, treat it as such."
