History

Miss gave the quill pen to Verona as her promised gift, along with information about the Blue Heron Institute.<ref name="miss-gift">Verona took a hesitant step forward, then walked around the tree. She passed around the left of it, emerged at the right, and had a paper in her hand.  There was no indication she had seen or interacted with Miss.  A black feather stuck out of the paper.

[...]

“What’s this feather?”

“A quill pen.  It lets you pick up written words and put them down.  I thought it suited you.  I would be careful about moving words into or out of practices, at least until you have power, protection, and a solid understanding of exactly what you’re doing.”

“Hmm,” Verona made a sound.  “Cool.” - Lost for Words 1.7</ref>

Verona used the quill pen to transfer Lawrence Bristow's words of acknowledgement onto a note given to the Brownies of the Blue Heron Institute,<ref>With her quill pen, she moved writing from phone to paper.

It’s good.  Gracious.  I have no regrets.  I’m happy.  I’m glad.

She’d hoped for a thank you.  It’s why she’d let him gainsay her.  In hopes his overly talkative self would spill the word as she handed him power just before he was supposed to deal with Alexander.

So she could take Bristow’s words again, crystal clear, and give them to the brownies. - Gone Ahead 7.8</ref> which led to a showdown and ultimately to Bristow's downfall.<ref>He pushed the doors open.  For the brief moment the double doors were open wide enough to let him pass through, the room was bright and stirred, as if an orange-red flame burned inside.

The doors closed behind him.

The multitude of orange-red eyes closed, or turned away. - Gone Ahead 7.9</ref>

The quill pen was broken by Verona's father during a heated argument.<ref>She pulled out the word-changing quill, broken in half. - Shaking Hands 9.9</ref>
