Aldo's mesh bracers
Iridescent mesh forearm bracers, ordered in secret and never explained
The party went to the best custom smithy in Haudh-Gwenn to order a wire saw for the iron bars of the keep’s exit grate and a lead-lined box to hold Beltran’s khopesh, and came away with something nobody had known about. There was already an order waiting under Aldo’s name.
What came out of the wrapping was a mesh so fine it would not hold its own shape, the rings sliding over one another so easily that it took a moment of handling to work out you were looking at a pair of bracers at all, and not just a heap of iridescent metal. Supple enough to wear under a sleeve and never show. Nobody in the party has been able to say whether they are enchanted, and nobody has managed to identify them.
Aldo has never said when he ordered them, or why, and he deflected every question put to him about it that day. He has worn them ever since.
