Tideweaver
The Tideweaver is a clever, sand-dwelling crustacean known for the intricate patterns it leaves behind as it forages and burrows. Its broad, fan-like claws are used to sift through wet sand for food, creating swirling trails and geometric shapes that are a familiar sight to coastal dwellers. These delicate patterns are often the only evidence of the Tideweaver’s presence, as it is quick to vanish beneath the surface at the slightest disturbance. Some cultures consider finding a fresh Tideweaver pattern to be a sign of good luck or a change in the tides
