Handful of sand

handful of sand This is... well... it's a handful of sand. There's not much you can say about sand, really. It's like dirt, only more granular. Spanish for sand is arena. If you had an hourglass to watch the sand fall through, that'd be a poignant (if melodramatic) metaphor, but you don't have an hourglass. So yeah. Sand. Go ahead and count the grains if you want; seriously, go crazy. We won't make you count three million, though -- that would just be rude. (Meat Pasting component) Type: usable (also usable in combat) Selling Price: 25 Meat. Make stuff out of it! Weakens Enemies a Little Bit (In-game plural: sandfuls of hand)
