Given how much time you spent here, you can at least afford a few more hours to search it head to toe for any secrets that might have been hidden from you during your stay. This time, searching the island is a significantly easier endeavor thanks to all the practice you had in resisting both the force and the chill of the shrieking storm that even still tries to besiege you nonstop, though finally to no avail. It took you only three hours to cover the vast majority of the island, which was dotted with just a few more caves with sentimental drawings and even a little constructed mud-man overgrown with moss hiding in the back of one, but you hardly find anything of interest until you drop down into a ravine that you'd barely missed before with your route around the central area of the island.
Sitting in the crevasse, plain as day to anyone with the right angle on it, is an impressively large...artpiece, you think? You hop down to it to get a closer look, marvelling at the size of such an ill-fitting object. It's clearly been put through its paces over the years from neglect, with moss starting to grow on its limbs and some kind of a glassy substance that could be a window dull and iced-over. The object looks like it's made out of some kind of a hardened clay or ceramic almost, and Harum seems intensely curious to inspect it.
"I think this is some kind of a ceramic metal composite!" Harum shouts to you and Barbar, tapping it in a few different places with his knuckles while he presses his ear to it. He furrows his brow for a few moments, rubbing his hand along the surface to feel the texture. "It almost has an organic texture to it, though! Kind of reminds me of a snail's shell!" He follows up, earning a look of surprise from you.
"You're telling me this is a snail shell?!" You shout back in askance. Harum laughs, shaking his head.
"No, I don't think so! I think...that it's some kind of a home, if I had to guess! I don't know why they would have it suspended off the ground, but the architecture isn't like anything I've ever seen!" He shoots back, now starting to circle the object in his examination.
"Think it belongs to whoever left those drawings?" You ask, feeling a small amount of confusion setting in but unsure why.
"Maybe! But...I don't think they built it, even if that's the case! The person who left the drawings...had the intellect of a child!" He explains, feeling something along the bottom of the ship now. "And there's no signs of anything they would have needed to construct it! No forges, no residues, nothing got mined out! Either they arrived with it somehow, or someone else built it here but left no other signs of their presence! Also...I'm pretty sure there's a hatch here! Maybe it's some kind of a vehicle?" He follows up.
"Maybe it's an experimental plane!" You offer, things starting to click a little bit for you. "Easy for something like that to crash out here, right? Or have to make an emergency landing!"
