It’ll buff out. The Eye-ties have had extensive experience piecing old historical monuments back together.

In 1527, when Michelangelo’s statue of David was standing outside the Medici palace (just where the replica now stands), someone* threw a chair out of a palace window and broke his left arm in three places. But they mended it so expertly that the damage isn’t noticeable today.

* One story claims this was the result of a cat fight between two of the Medici famously volatile women. YMMV.
