Via File 770, here is a link to a short story that explains the icon that Breq was carrying with her in the Ancillary series. I admit I had to think about it to remember the icon at all. However, now that I’ve been reminded, yes, I did wonder about that.
This story apparent came out in Strange Horizons in 2014. Hmm. Well, better late hearing about these things than never, right?

Thank you! I thought I had missed something in the novels because it was never explained.
