Jyn's kyber pendant

Jyn's kyber pendant was a kyber crystal necklace given to Jyn Erso by her mother Lyra, whilst on the run from the death troopers of the Imperial Director Orson Krennic who had come for them on Lah'mu. It had the words "TRUST IN THE FORCE" written on it in Aurebesh—the very same words that Lyra told her daughter when she gave her the necklace as a parting gift minutes before her death. The necklace was given to Lyra on Coruscant by a Ryn jeweler who appeared to be tailing her.

During the following 13 years, Jyn kept the necklace as her most prized possession and s usually hid it under a scarf that she had been given for that purpose by Partisans leader Saw Gerrera, who had rescued and raised her for multiple years. Through her necklace, she was often reminded of her mother and it helped her not to give up. As the stormtroopers who captured her were unable to recognize it as a kyber crystal and instead mistook it for a piece of glass, Jyn was able to keep the necklace when she was imprisoned in a Imperial detention center on Wobani.
