I specifically made it for those who haven't read the manga and wanna learn a bit more, but at the same time don't want to get spoiled about the main events.
I kept those secrets, so no worries!
Lyza's whistle has the Crescent moon symbol, there is a depiction or flowers of fortitude on it well
But the main symbol we see in here whistle is the keyhole one
On the surface level it's because of doni, white whistles are made with the soul of another person who decides to sacrifice their life for you to continue on your journey
We know this from the ido front arc
Doni's character design is so fucking cool
He might have the best design among all the characters and white whistles
On a deeper level the symbol of keyhole is based on the doorbeetle symbol which is the one Akihito himself identifies himself with usually
I asked him what it means and he said: A bug that seems as if it were designed so that if you turned a “key,” its wings would open
yet in reality, there is no key, and even if there were, it has no wings to open.
A creature that spends its entire life in effort and struggle.
There are a few more places we see this symbol in the story
On Rikos cape brooch and regs backpack
I've explored the theories of all of season one in my channel and started doing the bondrewd movie
