Peri's Weathered Pendant Necklace

A simple leather cord threaded through a small, irregularly shaped stone pendant, its surface smoothed by years of wear. The necklace appears unremarkable at first glance, yet Peri’s reaction reveals its depth—her fingers trace the pendant without conscious thought as the Doctor examines it, her unease sharpening when Glitz and Dibber express immediate recognition of the artifact. The Doctor handles it with detached curiosity, poking at the stone’s facets while the hunters’ predatory instincts force Peri to recognize how closely this relic ties to hidden dangers on Ravalox.
