A Wondrous Device
Description
This is a breadbox sized (40 cm), Flora colored thing. It's vaguely appliance shaped and made from gemstone and wood [mycelium]. It inspires feelings of deepened melancholy when you look at it, produces the sound of the clatter of chains when you hold it to your ear, smells vaguely of blood and iron, and feels slithery in your hand.
Usage
Consists of, contains, or randomly generates poetry.
Background
This hard-used oddment was discovered in The Federation of Unhuman Kingdoms on Terra.
