The Amulet of Georgiana Appelo
Description: a moderately heavy gold amulet, in a gaudy Rococo style. The front is inscribed with the Appelo coat of arms (a Guineaman, centered in a triangle of three apples). The back has two moveable rings of characters, in no known alphabet. The Amulet of Georgiana Appelo always feels just a little too warm for full comfort.
It’s a tragic tale, in its way: but it’s one of those tales where the pathos is tempered by the fact that virtually everybody involved in it got precisely what they deserved. That’s what brought the Amulet of Georgiana Appelo to the relevant authorities’ attention, in fact. Normally real life is, ah, sloppier.
