Male Hatchling
Name: unnamed
Species: Blue Nareau Minnow
Birthday: Thursday, August 8, 2024
Owner: Nymbra
Element: Light
Newly hatched nareau minnows are nearly microscopic, easily overlooked by magis unless they knew what they were looking for. Even though you know your new little companion is in this tank, you still have a hard time finding it. At this age, they are yet unable to produce any lasting glow, but you see a light flash occasionally from the tank, so you know it's still in there. Once the hatchling grows large enough, you begin to feed the little fish small bioluminescent insects, it's favorite food. After a steady diet of these, your little fish will be able to glow whenever and however long it wants to.
As you explore the caves of Nareau in search of Crystalwings, you come across a small, glowing pool of water. Walking over to the water you look inside and see tiny fish swimming around, the glow you see is coming from them. These are Nareau Minnows, you've seen them before and you think to yourself they are quite pretty. As you sit and watch the blue and green little fish swim together around various gemstones and geodes; you notice one swimming to the top of the water with an egg in its month. Is it offering you an egg? You grab a cup from your bag and scoop the egg inside. You thank the little fish as you stand and continue your exploration, happy for the experience you just had.
