There are two large and sharp pieces of metal jutting out from the side in parallel.  The metal is very slightly, inexplicably slimy to the touch.  If you hold it up to your ear, it emits a low, oscillating hum very quietly.  Unsettling…",

Something that looks suspiciously like blood very slowly oozes out from between the layers in the rock - almost imperceptibly slow - almost as if something living were freshly crushed between the sedimentary layers.  But that would be impossible…",

The wood is well-treated and it seems completely mundane at first.\n\nIf you look through the hole, everything looks normal.  It's only when you wave your hand in front that you realize that you can't see yourself!  If you stick your finger inside the hole, it doesn't seem to come out the other side.  How is that possible?!",

When you pick up the object, you notice a pale purple ooze trapped in the middle of the glass meld.  It's iridescent, colloidal, and slightly viscous, although it doesn't remind you of any fluid you've ever seen before.",

You're no expert, but these inscriptions are unlike anything you've ever seen humans make, with many geometric shapes inside squares that could be words or characters.  There are thin, intricate lines weaving all over the horn, curving in a way that you're sure could only be achieved with laser engraving technology yet you feel certain they were not.",

It's oddly stocky and brightly colored, textured with low-resolution images almost like an object that fell straight out of an old video game.  On the cover is just the number \"19\" and below it the words \"A new bible by\" but there's no author listed.  In fact, there's no other text on the entire object.",

You're unsure what to call them.\n\nOne appears to be a small ball of hair with copper wires reaching out in one direction, reminiscent of an amoeba reaching for something.  Another appears to be a tiny fern, only made out of a highly iridescent metal, with blades quite literally as thin as a razor.  A third, particularly horrifying one appears to be the shrunken head of a human with a network of dark red nerves instead of hair.",

One moment it's a liquid, the next it feels like marbles or rocks, and then the next it feels like sand.\n\nAlthough probably inconsequential, the object emits a fairly strong odor of ginger at all times.",
