Grown teiro crystalwings are no larger than the size of a man's head, yet weight as if they were solid rock. Despite of their weight they are nimble and flexible and can burrow into any soil imaginable. From inside the ground they find gems and rare metals that they either take to their underground nest or consume. Adult teiro crystalwings like to mind their own business and are known to make irritated high-pitched noises when interrupted from their constant digging. Some believe the different frequency sounds they make are also used to locate different precious stones underground. The teiro crystalwings also seem to have a knack of digging out precious mineral-encrusted roots that are useful in many healing ointments. Luckily the crystalwings themselves seem mostly uninterested in these roots once they are dug up, which as lead many a magi who specializes in herbs and plants to hold the teiro crystalwings in great value.

Even after years of careful study the crystalwings still remain a mystery. More is known of them each passing year yet the amount of remaining questions grows at the same time. Legends from local villages of mythical creatures that appear when digging wells or plowing fields that leave behind small piles of ground have led careful expeditions to the Caves of Nareau. There the small and nimble teiro crystalwing was spotted for the first time. Teiro crystalwings dig tunnels and holes that many believe criss-cross all over the Caves of Nareau and reach unbelievable lengths. These tunnels provide the teiro crystalwings safe and swift passage through the ground and into the hollowed out caverns where they nest.
