English seems to be the only language tracing the Owlet (from Fractal Continuum) to the Skatene rather than the owl component of the chimerical Mirrorknight. Did the Allag have Skatene? I thought that was a Sharlayan thing.Quote:

After the owlet had been created by the minion crew, the next step was for the item & dungeon teams to decide where it was going to be dropped/found. The first choice was for the minion to be a Great Library reward, so the lore master and myself came up with a story that would fit its place of discovery (the EN text you see in-game now). However, as the rest of the game was coming together, someone decided that the reward was needed in the Fractal Continuum instead. The JP text was adjusted to match its new location...and the memo stating as much got lost in the blizzard of other work. QA tested the text, but as they only review the EN and do not reference the JP, the discrepancy was missed and the old (albeit grammar bug-free) text made it into the game.
But now, thanks to your eagle eye, I can go in and fix the text and get it to match the FR and DE (and JP!)
The text will go live on 3.2, but here's what will be there:
Preserved with temporal magicks and placed on display in the Fractal Continuum, this genetically enhanced cloudkin is documented as being one of the genetic components used in the creation of chimeric mirrorknights. He appears to have developed the capacity for reading.
The JP also mentions that the owlet's favorite thing to read is the Raven, but a lack of space in the minion guide UI unfortunately forced me to leave that tidbit on the cutting room floor.
Thank you again for the find!
I was just telling my brother the other night it would have made far more sense for the owl to drop from the Library. Glad to know what happened.
