jade ornaments in his/her hair - Falcons' Feathers early part 1, Khenbish and Togortok (who appears in good days come with stunt riding and explosions)

He'd got the idea from Togortok when he was too young to go out raiding. He doubted anyone realised, since Togortok had stopped wearing the jades in his hair by the time Khenbish was leading raids of his own.

But the idea of hiding things in his hair he'd got from Togortok nonetheless. Not cut-down pieces of seals, a five-clawed dragon's hand or a tiger's head peeking from beneath his cowl, no.

Beads. They looked decorative, and everyone knew he liked yellow and didn't like to clink when he moved, so nobody cared that they were strung on black string and arranged so they didn't touch one another.

So nobody realised that gold-on-black beads might be gold-printed circuit beads, that held maps, communication frequencies, names, even legends in their black depths.

He had no intention of letting old man Ligdan lay hands on his maps.

I LOVE this. The idea of functional decoration is always neat, and clever ways of hiding important information too!

Do we know anything about old man Ligdan?

:) Yay involved comment! (I really like the way the feathers translated. I'm glad you do too.)

I believe Ligdan is this gentleman.
