Quibbspawn is now appearing at Gathering Locations

Vespera had been at Flamefall Cascades for a few days - she figured she may as well gather while she was in the area, as she doesnt come to Flamefall very often. She had placed River, her Raylen, to gather at Ember Springs only a few hours ago, and it was almost time to go and see what treasures had turned up.

When she got there however, River was flapping her wings wildly. "Ok, ok, calm down! What did you find?" Vespera said calmly as she tossed a berry at Rivers feet.

Vespera poured out the contents of the now Broken Elite Pouch, and threw the pouch to the side. To her astonishment, there was something glistening in the pile of items. "Oh - could it be..?". Vespera recognised that glint - it was a Quibbspawn!

"Woah! So now they are appearing at gathering locations too? River, we need to keep gathering! Let's see if we can find some more!".

Vespera pulled out a fresh Elite Pouch and held it out - "Ready to go gather again?" she said to the magnificent bird, now stretching her wings wide.

River had finished eating her berry at this point, and hopped excitedly up to Vespera - River's favourite thing to do was exploring the unknown. She grasped the pouch in her claws and gave Vespera an affectionate peck before flying up, high above the springs.

Quibbspawn hatches into a Minimal - the Quibblet!

Back at Solar Sands, Silvershade and Skylar had been working together - Silvershade was fishing and reeling in items, and Skylar had been making treks back and forth to Barnaby to keep the golden beach clear of the trash. Skylar had just returned as Silvershade got another bite on their rod.

"That is quite the pile of Quibbspawn we have pulled up so far!" Skylar exclaimed. "Yeah I just counted them - there is 49 in total" Silvershade replied, "well, 50 if we include this one", as they fumbled with the fresh Quibbspawn now dangling from their fishing line.
"Amazing!" Skylar responded "I wonder what is inside-"

Before Skylar could finish their sentence, they watched in astonishment. Silvershade had just placed the fresh Quibbspawn into the pile, and straight away the pile had begun to vibrate. Both Silvershade and Skylar took a step back in unison, as the pile of eggs started to dissolve. Some of the eggs popped, some deflated, but the pile was shrinking fast.

After a few moments, the process was complete, and all that remained were empty shells of Quibbspawn scattering the area, shrinking and draining into the sand.. and in the center of the pile was a small tadpole-like creature.

"Oh gosh!" Skylar said - "That... is a Minimal!"

"Wait! Does it need to be in water?" Silvershade asked, worried that it looks like an aquatic creature. "Nope" Skylar responded "- this is a Quibblet. It's a Minimal, and it's amphibious - we learned all about them when I was studying with Rose". Silvershade swooped down and picked up the creature in their arms, "I will name you.. Quin!". 
The small minimal froze for a moment before nuzzling into Silvershade's chest. It seemed very content.

"I'm going to get this little guy back to my Minimal Ranch. I'm sure it will fit right in with all my Minimals" Silvershade said softly, a small happy-tear rolling down their face.

"That sounds great" Skylar replied, examining the remaining egg shells. "I'm going to stay here and try to catch more. We need to study this phenomenon - I recall from my studies a cove where these originate from. I'm going to try and find the source!"

After they bid farewell, Silvershade and Quin started the trek back towards Silvershade's Minimal Ranch. "I'm excited to show you to my adventurer friends! When we get back, we'll announce that our doors are open for Adventurers to come visit!"

Figurines Updated!

To help distinguish our Divine figurines with our non-divine figurines, our team has been working through all the art work in order to standardize their orientation.

Going forward, Divine figurines will always face to the right:

..and our Non-divine figurines will always face to the left:


We hope that this change will help give a greater distinction between the two types of figurine (in addition to the Divine figurines also having a 'base' to the image).
