Just throwing this into the mix, though I still need to come back and get stuck into my other bits and pieces.
When Fitz borrowed Fool's honey on Aslevjal (for Thick's tea), he moved the Rooster Crown into the centre of Fool's bed so Fool would know that he had been there. He had this to say:
'In the end, I moved the Rooster Crown into the middle of his bed. I turned the simple wooden circlet in my hands, the dim light catching for an instant in one rooster's sparkling gem eye...'
My opening post was simply to get the ball rolling (sorry to throw it out there with no back-up or supporting info of my own!) but I always got the impression that the two remaining gems respresented Fool and Fitz, as the two who were still working toward the restoration of the world? More on why I've gone for that theory later!
