Arialla blushed: she hadn't even realized she'd brought the necklace to Jigano's attention. "It's the sacred symbol of my god, Apollo. One of the first things I received on entering the priesthood. I doubt Safrin would enjoy an offering already dedicated to another god, even if I were willing to give it up.
Though, now that she thought about it, it did occur to Arialla that Safrin might be offended if her new worshipper wore the sign of another god. Jigano had said she was jealous, hadn't he? Perhaps Arialla ought to leave off the necklace when she visited Safrin's shrine, though she was loath to even take it off. She could just put it in a pocket, at least.
She nodded at Jigano's advice, appreciating his ideas -- and the fact that he was taking the time to advise her. "Taking shells to the Hollowed Grounds I can most certainly do. I don't have much experience with making jewelry, but I can certainly try it."
It wasn't as if she needed great riches, after all. As long as she could somewhat support herself and set a little aside for an offering for Safrin, Arialla would be fine.
