[ Ciri nods. Yep, those are the ones -- and he's not wrong. ]

Sometimes they get too close to the road. Or wander into the land designated for livestock, cause damage. Admittedly, their shells and scales can fetch a good price -- seems apothecaries powder them for some purpose or another -- but one animal yields a lot of parts, considering their size. They get aggressive on occasion, but it doesn't seem to be the rule. I don't go after them just for the parts, but if I have to put one down, well... I'm not about to waste it.

None of these where you're staying? What have you got?
