Dried fruit is plentiful on Obojima but there are certain artisans who know how to preserve and concentrate the flavor and vibrancy of the fruit

These beetles were made famous by the legendary sage, Arol, for his use of their mandibles as quills for his pen. But potion makers began to
use the beetles for potion crafting when a witch from the Fish Head Coven began to see the rare bug in her dreams. Sage Arol’s Beetles live deep underground, fleeing even the dimmest light. On rare occasions, they come to the surface, though the reason remains a mystery.
