The gildling replaced its ancestor, the crocusism in Ittiz Bog and Ittiz River, then spread to Barlowe Tundra. Now that the river became colder it had to adapt to the colder environment. It has developed a thicker cell wall to protect it from other microbes. Its thick cell wall keeps in enough water that it can survive on land as well. However only when in the muddy thawing soil of soil in the tundra During the winter they will hibernate until it becomes warm again.
