The item screen showing end-game Usable Items in the lower-left

Usable Items are items in the inventory which have some kind of effect when equipped or used with the Item button. You can select one in the menu to equip it, and your currently equipped item is shown as the leftmost icon in the upper-right corner of the screen.

Cog of the Soul[]

Icon cogofthesoul

Why, that's a Cog of the Soul.
It's pretty much a key that's used to perform the forbidden art of bringing clay to life.
I think you stick it somewhere to get a machine to move, but that's the kind of thing that you'd expect to be forbidden so...
Maybe you shouldn't use it?
