He was not alone.

There was another suitcase creature with him, slightly smaller than Narled, and around their feet were six little handbags.

Narled was not, as everyone assumed, the result of an experiment gone wrong, but a real animal. Sacculus Pluscruris Patagonius was a very rare species of creature that only survived in the safety of Quicklime’s remote valley.

Their skins had been made into suitcases and holdalls, and even their babies had been made into little bags and purses. Nowadays suitcases are usually made of nylon and plastic, but in the past, the more endangered the animal, the more desirable was the luggage.
