    Being as thick as a pigshit, I had just seals in mind. Even with the clues Marit gave me secretly, I had to delve into wiki to find out that precious beast I had never seen anywhere since neither my wife, nor myself wear fur.
    What a black mark I get!
    Here is it showing up: "sable"
    Oops!
