A Random Event Has Occurred!
As the sun is rising in the sky, the beach seems to be stirring.
Strange blue crabs scuttle from the sand to the ocean, other crustaceans burrowing into hiding. It’s as if they’re fleeing from the light, as if the sun on this island will burn anything caught within its rays.
But the waves are ever-moving, reaching farther and farther along the beach. They push and they pull, gently at first, and then with increasingly force. Just as one wave recedes another is ready to replace it with increasingly ferocity, sending foam and salt spray into the air.
And then, suddenly, the ocean draws away, leaving the beach sparkling and damp. All that's left is a glimmering stone where the water once raged, as big as your hoof, spherical and white.
Is it a strange pearl... or an egg?
