glint lore for sos if i’m allowed (aka i had thoughts tm):

- they travel in packs, and are one of the few classifications of creatures that can pass through any/all rune barriers. ie what big mama has protecting the nexus watchers from the stray bits and spells from the fighters, or what draxum /had/ on the lab and farm to protect his family from the watchful eyes of outsiders. bc of this they where used to pass letters of all sorts in the old days, but seince they got even smaller this practice has been abandoned

- they, like their more aquatic cousins, love to hang around kappa and other mystic fulled species. granted this is a train found in most wyrm species but it’s extremely prevalent in theses little guys. it’s one of the sure fire wats to find a kappa settlement!

- the packs can get so big that they all blend together, like what’s depicted in this comic.

- they love shiny lights, and little olive was snacking on mikey’s nimpo after the light show attracted the pack.

- they all form superficial ‘bonds’ with each other, though theses are very easy to override as its more like borrowing your friends coat then eating part of your friends soul.

- that being said, and i’m gonna be real i was not paying any attention if they have a canonical way to bland w someone, bonding with a glint is very different then a wyrm. 1st off, they are much smaller and demand much less energy so it’s far easier to bond with 2-4 of them, ie the amount you would want for the lil guy to be healthy. 2ed, instead of amplifying thier bonded ability, they instead act like small batterys! they will store thier bounds mystics and hold onto it until a, needed for food, or b, taken back by the one who gave it to them. the mind meld ability is a constant though

- as mentioned above, it’s far healthier for the little guys to have more then one of thier kind if they are to be taken from their pack, and abandonment is near certain death. all other wyrm sub species can work as pack substitutes, or bonding with one when you already have a bound soul (not at all recommended, and highly dangerous)
