The simplified emblem of the Light Badge indeed matches the scars on Christine's face.
"This is not disfigurement, but the best reward for piety."
Christine said softly, "If you don't believe it, you can ask the Magic Mirror from Sif if my feminine charm has diminished."
Prompted by Christine, Roland closely observed her face, imagining in his mind how these scars might fade over time.
Perhaps it was a psychological effect, or perhaps the emblem of light etched in his mind played its role, Roland gradually accepted Christine's statement.
It's not disfigurement; it's a Holy Mark.
Seeing that Roland was no longer troubled, Christine put on her coat, crossed her hands over her chest, and bowed to him.
"I'm sorry I took it upon myself to disrupt the peace talks. Please punish me."
