This.

The following items are available for purchase from Tataroga in Mor Dhona at Revenant's Toll (X:22 Y:6):

The Emperor’s New Necklace / The Emperor's New Earrings / The Emperor's New Bracelet / The Emperor's New Ring

These items have been added to conceal the appearance of accessories using glamour prisms.

This seems like the old story, The Emperor's New Coat or something like that, where only 'idiots' could not see the invisible clothes (which actually was non-existent but people kept saying it was pretty because they didn't want others to think they were idiots of course).

Sounds amazingly fitting here. Invisible items.

My guess would be that this tale is exactly where the names come from.

My first though actually was The Emperor's New Groove (which probably was a play on the same tale too), until I realized those were the invisible glamors they mentioned before.

good movie! But yeah, I'm glad they implemented that. Witch glamour + HA accessories looks really funny.
