I've never really been a stickler for keeping track of components and such, but it seems like maybe the ones with costs associated, like Chromatic Orb and it's 50 gp diamond, should be accounted for. After all, I wouldn't let you cast Awaken without the 1,000 gp agate material component, so.. The diamond isn't consumed, you just have to have it on your person (and keep it away from the party rogue!).
That being said, I realize we haven't talked about this, as it's something I didn't even consider until now. Aedon's attack this round will stand regardless; we we're really just talking about for next time here.
I hope I'm being clear, and not sounding like a dick. Someone tell me this makes sense.. I'd like to discuss it a little.
