Flavor Text[]

You close your eyes, letting the soothing sounds of the tide wash over you. As you turn over the bizarre figurine in your hands, its damp, wooden edges bring you a strange sort of inexplicable comfort.

Other responsibilities call, and that saddens you, but your heart overflows with joy each time you read the inscription carved into the figure's base.

"Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn."
