Breachstone Warden
Custos abyssi
Filed in the field ledger, but not yet swimming in any water reachable today — real content, not a placeholder, waiting on its own unlock.
Field record
The grotto that holds it has been sealed by a single slab of stone we have not yet found a way to move, and everything we know comes from what slips through the crack at its base: a slow exhale of warmer water, on a rhythm too long to be tidal, and once — only once — a sound low enough that the hydrophones logged it as a fault in the equipment. Whatever keeps that stone in place did not put it there by accident.
Habitat
Catching it
A Leviathan-tier catch needs at least a Heavy-Gauge Net— anything under that rating can never hold it, whatever the throw. Bought at the Quartermaster’s counter for 850 crystals. A held net inks this entry for good and pays its ledger bonus on the spot.
Full capture mechanics — sighting vs. capture, the aim ring, why a net below a creature’s tier always bursts — in The Ledger.
