it starts with one
then another shows up
then another
and at some point
you realize
you were never going to stop at one
most pull back here
a few don’t
those are the ones
who end up with the rare ones
—
some are already gone
if you’ve made it here
you already know
this was never just one
—
ETERNAL ETH ESSENCE · 1x
core relic
doesn’t sit beside the piece
it becomes it
—
DESERT’S DEVOTION · 3x
sandwind spell
you don’t see it
but you feel it every time
—
DESERT DRAGON EGG · 7x
sleeping
it will hatch
the moment is already set
—
SANDS OF SHEN · 51x
spiral field
doesn’t change the piece
changes the space around it
—
most take one
a few keep going
if you go far enough into the desert
you find her

it doesn’t end with the piece
that’s where it usually starts
some carry something with them
an artifact
a spell
something still waiting
something that changes the space around it
once you see one
you start seeing the rest
some stop here
some don’t
and the ones who don’t
usually go further than they expected
blue wanderer
collector of eth
not searching
responding
she doesn’t choose what she takes
it appears
and once it does
more follow
some of these already carry something else
if you feel it
you feel it
we’re sending the exact drop time quietly
comment “mine finds me”
we’ll know who’s inside
some pass through
see nothing
and keep going
others stop
they start seeing signs, traces, pieces,
patterns
things that weren’t there before
they don’t plan to stay
but they do
this isn’t for everyone
Schai Maw only appears to those who stay
there’s a region that looks empty at first
just sand
nothing to take
until the first fragment appears
and once it’s picked up
something changes forever
not loud
but real
some move on
some don’t
if you know that feeling
you already understand
