<span class="mu-i">Crab Mallets</span>: A small wooden mallet, with a long-for-its-size handle tapered down to a point, intended to smash the shells of shelledfish, so the wielder can get to their meat. Chlotsuintha would no doubt have a hard time eating these as well ... but as they are cheap enough to be considered disposable, they might serve as single-use probes for poking around objects bletted with the Strangeness. Sold individually. 1 to 3 Eighth-Talents for 1 Crab Mallet. 4 for sale.
<span class="mu-i">Shelledfish Picks</span>: Small steel shafts with heads in several configurations, intended to pry open the shells of shelledfish, so the wielder can get to their meat. These implements might serve as single use probes as well ... and in a pinch, they might also work as Needles or Pins for Implements and Constructs, though their irregular shapes might result in unusual and inexplicable vagaries in performance. Sold individually. 3 to 6 Eighth-Talents for 1 Shelledfish Picks. 8 for sale.
<span class="mu-i">Flounder, Fresh</span>: The tanned fish, with the uncanny-eyes. As Flounder look unusual enough under normal circumstances, the prudent tend to avoid eating them, as it is harder to determine if the fish has been physically corrupted in some manner than it would be for a more ... typical fish. The pious, on the other hand, are split on the matter. Some contend that as the aspect of the Flounder is fundamentally unpleasing, it must be some Contrary uncleanliness that has yet to be worked out of the Pattern. The other school of thought holds that while the Flounder looks aberrant, without any specific instruction against eating them from The Piece or the Heralds that came afterwards, these fish should be treated as if they were any other. For obvious reasons, Chlotsuintha subscribes to this second school of thought - and even if she didn't want to eat the fish, the distended eyes of the fish make harvesting working material very straightforward. They are also quite cheap, considering how many refuse to eat them. Remains in an edible state for 1 day. Sold whole, with each fish being about six pounds. 1 Eighth-Talent buys 1/2 to 2 pounds of Flounder. 3 for sale.
