Holy Turtle

Just as rations ran short, someone found a beast of a land-turtle curled up in stowaway. Soup that night really boosted crew morale. Some said the turtle snuck on board before they set sail. Others said it was a pet that no one claimed. Hero thought it was divine intervention, that the turtle had only been on the planet a few moments before they found him. Goddamnit he wanted to believe in miracles.
