Doctor's Thaum diary

Jameston, January 618, the 5th

 

Celestia Superb Orchid Search, 1st day

 

After a momentous air travel with Callaghan, my dear Iauln and the magnificent Sven, followed by a recordative crash near the shore, we catch the Garret twins up in Jameston.

All was ready for the expedition, as I've asked, and I am very pleased !

Today we walked along the shore of Celestia, heading north, along the beautifull Vanilla Bay, I was amazed by the profusion of flora and fauna, what a healthy shore !!

The waters are so great provider that we met a very special crab (Fig 1) , with a very high body mass index, he certainly greatly benefits of the fishy shore.

As we never met such a crab, Sven decide to name it a cancer pagurus gigas.  Iauln tried to catch it with its dip net but didn't succeed.

However, he drew a pretty good image of it. We also found a strange five-stemed plant (Fig 2) , with very poor roots (only to grab the sandy ground)

which seems to feed on sea spray's salt. As for the gigantic crab, we called it a Svenia Saltis. Iauln, drew it fine too, he is a talented drawer for sure.

Thanks, I've made this built around that crab ! He was the first built and gave me the idea. He was once designed for being caught with a net by the Andromeda near the LaCrosse wreck.

Good exciting scene and fine crab.
