firefly gloves
Plural: pairs of firefly gloves
This is a pair of soft, supple gloves that have been coated with glowing green goo from dozens of ground up lampyridae. Pretty gross, huh kids?

Just kidding. They're actually a lovely blue color, much like you'd see in a rapidly flowing, hard to find river on a lovely summer evening. They make you feel ready to take on any and all malcontents, even if they're hiding inside a castle.

These gloves can also help you give the most noble of greetings: live long and phosphor!
