The Many Breasted creature traveled constantly. People would always find it in remote areas. Some accounts say that its front side was human, others say it was not, but every single person who encountered it alive said that as soon as it felt their presence, it would turn its back revealing hundreds of breasts. The back seemed so much larger that the front, which is something that no one can explain. It would call you and invite you to drink from the breasts something that people have only been able to describe as what empathy would taste like. The creature would never lay its eyes on whoever it was feeding, laying all its trust on them. Someone fell in love with the creature and wanted to posses it. He captured it and cut all the breasts only to realize that they were not producing anything, so they were discarded or sold. The Relics of the Inadequate has dedicated a lot of its efforts in finding the breasts to preserve the memory of the creature.
