The ur-corkscrew crystal has split from the poison crystal shrub. It became shorter to grow in shallow parts of the coasts. It now just has two shoots that curve, giving it a shape that resembles the Ichthys symbol of Christianity. Sometimes, the shoots don't curve, making it just look like two crystal shoots that grow next to each other.

The ur-corkscrew crystals roots are quite strong to avoid being knocked down. The poison from its ancestor is retained.
