This round, brown egg has no distinguishing markings, but is quite heavy.
Although these creatures prefer the northern parts of the woods, it's not uncommon to spot them around the castle during the summer. Nulorns are driven out of the forest by heat, intent on visiting one of the coldest lakes; Lake Lakira. There, these large companions wade into the refreshing water, and usually spend the whole day cooling down. On these occasions, most magi keep their distance from the lake. Although nulorns are peaceful companions, they are wary of humans, and will quickly disappear back into the forest if bothered. Young nulorns are less cautious, and charge into the water at once, eager to swim. These companions are excellent swimmers, and can cross lakes if they so desire. If a magi has a very close bond with their nurlorn companion, the nulorn may even allow them to ride upon their backs. This is a speedy form of travel, both on land and water, as nulorns are very powerful creatures. They know almost every tree that grows in the woods, and can travel at great speed. Even deep snows do not stop them, as their wide hooves act as snowshoes. It is during the cold seasons that these companions focus all of their attention on their survival. The only food available are the few leaves that cling to the trees, and nulorns will even eat bark. Very few creatures dare to attack them, but it is in the depths of winter that they are most vulnerable. Even then, only a large pack of wolves stand any chance at bringing down a nulorn.
