A quiet Globule of Air

Located close to the heart, one can find a quiet spot. Spherical and translucent the young globule can 
be found. He clings himself to the desired human with his little barb-covered legs, sitting on the pulsing heart, calm and kindly in 
its soft round shape, innocently exposed to the environment. 
 
Eventually, some of the young, innocent, untouched “globule translucante” are unfortunately infected with “screeching limpets”. The “screeching limpet” is a fast-growing fungus that preferably infests infant “globule translucantes”. Their chalice-shaped bodies allow them to catch wind and exhalation to transmit their seeds and reproduce, fusing into healthy “globule translucante”.
Once fully infested, the “globule translucante” mutates from a soft, smooth being into an angular entity that emits high-pitched screeches when blown upon by human breath. 
This seldom infestation turns the “globule translucante” into an “angule translucante”. 
 
The “angule translucante” colloquially named “siren shell” has been feared for centuries due to its screaming nature. Over an extended period, the infestation grows with the former “globule translucante” stripping it of its nitrene and former smooth circular shape, leaving a bumpy sparse skeleton. 
 
These so-called “scaffoldigous brittularys” are rarities due to their delicate nature. They are a marvel scarcely found, yet intensely sought after by humans due to beliefs about their healing properties. 
The “scaffoldigous brittularys” colloquially referred to as ” sirens deify stint” once crushed, are used to cure broken hearts and poison the gleeful hearts of lovers.
