After a very hectic month I finally got some time to do the searching, anyway, important clarifying question. In the myth being referenced, were the objects also armbands or were they something else? Because I think I may have a guess
They were something else.
would they perchance be ..... arrows? :^)
Maaaaaaaaaaybee... (By which I mean yes.)
Yeet! I love it when I'm right about things!
