Unaware of the Soldier's thoughts, Loki instead picked up a thick short chain with a few runic stones set into it. He clasped it around the wrist making sure it was snug. "The cold made you retreat into your memories yesterday." Loki said as he worked, not meeting the Soldier's eyes. "If you rub these stones against another surface to create friction, they will engage a spell to warm yourself. Stop rubbing and the spell will fade away."

It was his way of apologizing.
