Something in the trees is watching.

Small creature, difficult anatomy

The author's direction changed the Soilfin from a large flying goblin into a cat-sized, low-slung creature with an apelike build. The sculpt has gone through repeated passes on its face, limb attachments, wings, eyes and skin. This is a generic Soilfin, not an assertion that the creature is Gribble.

A presence from the first steps

The spy watches from trees near the opening route and keeps pace outdoors. Approaching it sends it into flight. It returns cautiously when the player looks away and stops pursuing, using lookout positions and visibility checks rather than teleporting.

Making flight feel alive

The flight work has focused on faster wingbeats and body movement that follows the wings. Perched watching, takeoff, flight and landing all have to read as one creature. It remains protected and outside the combat and loot systems.
