snailmail bits

This is a pile of small metal rings that fell off of the shell of a particularly unusual snail.

Although, considering the variety of turtles that you've encountered in your time, I guess it's not all that unusual. In fact, it might have been weirder if the snail had been perfectly normal.

Type: usable
