I got the idea that it could lean into a narrative in Witchenly, the magical-oriented server network of the Digital World, hence the buttons that reference Tarot cards and description in the cube's description box that reference the kinds of things you would likely encounter in Witchenly, the Magatama in the design was pure happenstance when I first sketched it up and figured I would just lean into the whole mystical side of things. The straps on the lower end being compatible with ponies are just happy happenstance from drawing it out.
