Naiads are tier-IV units of the Grove faction. They can be recruited from Blooming Pond.

They can be upgraded into the Vernal Naiad or Brumal Naiad.

Description

Betwixt two realms, the Mycelium serves as a bridge, allowing passage between our world and the realm beyond it. As a result, young elementals merge with the flora and fauna of the Murmurwoods to take on physical forms.

Waterkin often choose the shape of naiads — spry, elusive, and ever-shifting, much like the element they embody.
