An ancient war-turtle, its high mossy dome is plated in scutes seamed with glowing lime light and crowned by a ridge of huge ivory-and-bronze spikes. A hooked snapping beak, a heavy brow and big scaled front flippers finish the look. It is one of the rarer finds in the Sunlit Shallows, rising from the sand in a trail of bubbles, and once hooked it pulls like an anchor heading for the seabed.
