Recognizing the object on the alien's wrist, Jake didn't immediately make the connection. After all, jewelry was not the exclusive preserve of Earthlings, and what was the likelihood that this bracelet, although similar to his, was an Oracle Device?
In fact, when Jake squinted his eyes to better distinguish its details, he immediately noticed the differences. The smooth, dark texture of the metal making up the bracelet was similar, but the shape of the object was different. Rather than the width of a connected watch, this bracelet had more the profile of a patch of armor covering the forearm like a vambrace.
This plate covered the right forearm of the Zhorion priest from the wrist to the elbow joint, and at this point it could not be called a bracelet.
