Mnemonic Stories

The creature from the abyss has no bones, only a gelatinous form contained by a tough, leathery membrane. You must not puncture it, for the flesh inside is a deadly acid.

The alchemistโ€™s homunculus grew inside a fluid-filled sac, a biological membrane of his own creation. The notes were emphatic: you must not expose the developing flesh to air before its time.
