This shape, it's both familiar and not!
Fu Qian weighed the object in his hand.
Just before Teresa had made herself unrecognizable, Fu Qian had decisively removed her skull first.
Casually tossing the corpse aside, Fu Qian examined the bone in his hand.
In the middle of the skull, there was a palm-sized hole, its edges quite smooth, and then replaced with some sort of transparent material.
Not long ago, Fu Qian had seen something similar.
It was on the people from Byeluk when he saw them.
But it was only similar, as a closer look would reveal significant differences between the two.
Among Grace's collection, the piece of her own skull she had cut off was an extremely regular diamond shape, narrow on the sides and elongated front to back.
That included the transparent thin piece on old Nate's head, who had lost his beloved son; the shape was also very consistent.
However, the piece in front of him was an oval shape, and even appeared a bit like a horizontal eye.
