Notes
On sand hills or in the sea, wherever it may be, it never moves from its spot. It will sit and wait for someone to wander past. Someone being prey, preferably, though it could also be someone who knows the value of the beautiful shell or the pearl it holds nestled inside.
Olimar
Using the pearl that takes shape inside its body as bait, this creature lures prey into its interior and traps it within its shell to feed. It's also worth noting that this pearl may just be an amalgamation of outside materials wrapped in a viscous gelatin exterior. On the frequent occasions when it cannot gather food for itself, this creature can also obtain nutrients when the symbiotic algae within its body photosynthesizes. For this reason, it can often be found with its mouth open on shoals or sandy beaches that get a lot of sunshine.
Louie
Heat in the shell over a strong fire to bring out the umami-rich juices. Finely mince the mantle and toss with noodles. Top with sesame seeds.
