Strange Carbuncle

Has anyone else seen this Carbuncle sitting on the wagon by the east Summoning Bell in Mor Dhona?

Picture 1

Picture 2

The second image shows that this Carby has NO name. He's untargetable and actually SITTING in the center of the wagon end.

It's an NPC's pet. You hear (see) them saying they can't find it.

I don't see it in my server.

I see him occasionally!

It pops up every now and then. It isn't there all the time and takes a while for it to show up.

The carby is named Ruby. Sometimes she's out on the wagon, sometimes her ACN, a Mithra, comes out of the building in the corner by the gate and begins wandering around the stalls calling for her.

Awww... Im going to look for the carby on my server now every day <3

You mean Miqo'te.

/sit Confirmed for pets.

The first time I noticed the emerald carbuncle on the wagon, I tried to target it and realized that it wasn't target-able, that it was an NPC (more like a feature of the environment). I had seen the Miqo'te Arcanist walking around the booths in Mor Dhona, sniff and shouting for a "Ruby", to which I assumed was the name of one of her companions. It was today that I made the connection that the carbuncle's name is Ruby and she disappears when the Miqo'te appears and starts looking for her. Today I saw Ruby at one of the booths, sniffing around before disappearing as if it were dismissed.

Yuh, I have encountered Ruby several times ^_^ It's always really cute.

I think she emerged at 3am ET for me and the owner will start looking for her at 6am ET.

And then she disappears when her owner gets closer to the shop.

The owner does several clockwise and anti-clock wise walks around the merchant area looking for her

She even stops to ask the shop keepers about her

This is great, I Hope they keep adding more small things like this ^^

I want a resolution to this... it's so sad that she can never find her Carbuncle. Maybe 2.3 will feature a new 'part' of this sequence.
