I'd carried them around in a carved wooden box along with the rest of my childhood treasures: clored bird feathers, rocks that sparkled in the sun, tiny plastic ballerinas that had graced my sixth-birthday cake, a dried bit of lavender, a toy cat with fake jewel eyes, and two silver stars given to my dead father. Now the medals were back in their satin box in a drawer in my dresser. The rest of my "treasures" were scattered to the winds.
