Element: Neutral
These jelly-like eggs are fused together. They only ever seem to move together.
The cold northern and southern oceans are home to many marvelous creatures, but almost all of them depend, in one way or another, on these tiny crustaceans. Krill are the base of the arkenian food chain, at their peak season forming masses that weigh millions of tons. Whales, seals, penguins, leviathans, fishes, and many other creatures feed largely or exclusively on krill. The small invertebrates are interesting as more than just food, however. Accustomed to living in enormous clusters, krill dislike being alone. To ensure this, their eggs are always laid in pairs, and they remain with their hatchmate for life. They are never far from one another, and can be identified by their beating hearts, which are visible through their semitransparent exoskeleton and beat in sync with one another.
