What does this information mean?

Brytthel is concerned that the stone in the Queen's crown - her responsibility to safeguard - may be what's attracting all the recent attacks. I asked if there is any way to hide its power, but she's unsure. She says it and another similar stone originally came from the glaufaye who live in the forest outside, so I'm going to ask them if they know of any way to hide these powerful items.
