Such gifts often mean as much as a feather, maybe even more.I admit, I still have a long way to go, but...Bestowing Honor and Pride
The guards from each Tea Party faction are given feathers from their respective faction leaders to wear, regardless if they themselves have wings or not.
When the leader of a faction graduates, their honor guards burn that feather as both a gesture of farewell and a send-off.
They also remain the most uniquely and ornately decorated of all the Honor Guards due to various trinkets and ornaments being gifted directly by their faction leader.
A member of the Pater faction Honor Guard carefully adorned with trinkets similar to the ones worn by Misono Mika.
Trinkets and ornaments personally bestowed as a gift from Mika herself.
If a leader of a faction does not have wings, they may decide to give handcrafted jewelry and accessories instead.
