Visual Description
An iridescent egg with brilliantly-hued diaphanous wings.
Lifestyle
The Life Tree, in its immeasurable vastness, is still growing every day. Oftentimes, the changes are simply too slow to observe: one offshoot branch is a fraction wider than it used to be, or leaves form more structures on the branch. Over time, the changes accumulate-- a patch of moonberries won't be where it was a few months ago, or an extra leaf house will grow between others in an already-settled neighborhood -- and the treetops' inhabitants are reminded their home evolves as they do.
The ever-mutable nature of the treetops makes it a challenge to navigate. The cities rarely shift, always located near the outlying branches, but the same cannot be said of the deep magical center of the Life Tree. Those stumbling across rare beauties like a field of blazing lightning-pompons are best off appreciating it while it's still there, since it may have moved the next time they make the journey. Maps are rendered obsolete within months of their creation, and only guides deeply in tune with Life Tree are able to understand its growth and alter their own paths through it accordingly.
Guides were the first to find Aello eggs gracing the most beautiful sites of the treetops. The eggs congregate in such locations, forming vivid streaks of color while they flit about, seeming to appreciate the sights themselves. They're quick and even once caught, never stop fluttering their wings, always eager to explore. When an Aello egg meets its caretaker, its colors seem to intensify, more resplendent in their presence.
