Died in the shell

Whatever was meant to break forth died centuries ago. This egg is long pre- the Fall. Perhaps from before any city was pulled into the Neath.

Alternative Success

"Good god!"

You may not be an ornithologist, but you can be reasonably certain that a human arm is not the usual thing found in an egg. Is this not, in fact, an egg? Could it be the pellet from some man-eating owl?

Only from Bring Up your Egg:


Failure

Not even any meat on it

Or, you might discover that it has greater value […] You'd need the time, a laboratory, and the right equipment.

Alternative Failure

The egg shatters. The contents tumble forth. A full skeleton – neatly folded to fit inside. The legs are tucked to the chest. The arms are folded above the knees. It is missing, however, one key piece.
