First time having a turtle on my porch.
Did he bring instructions for you to begin your quest?

Of you can decipher the arcane symbols, you can summon a very powerful demon.
Sure, but let’s be honest. That Never ends up well for the summoner.
Paint him one of orange, blue, purple, or red. Name based on color. If more turtles show up, repeat process. Then once you’ve done this four times, you’ll hence forth be known as Splinter.
He's adorable 😍
Thats a box turtle (probably an eastern box turtle judging by the pattern), they're terrestrial and can live for like 100 years in the wild!
