uncover the secrets of life itself, and viewed the Undead
as a key to this mystery.
Acquired From
- Found in a chest behind a locked door in Aldia's Keep, the door must be broken down by baiting one of the cyclops into ramming the door down.
Hints and Tips:
- Upgraded with Twinkling Titanite. Cannot be infused with Bleed.

It looks more like a part of a jaw more than a shell, since the protrusions on the end look like teeth
