The Awakening
It's rumoured that the founding five were a rowdy, mischievous bunch, forming close bonds through play, laughter, and questionable decisions.
The Spreading
As the story goes, Nummias multiplied and found their way into human lives, bringing joy and offering steady companionship.
The Present Day
Today, Nummias live happily alongside us, reminding us that mischief and meaning belong together. They make themselves at home on shelves, desks, and corners of importance, living their best little lives.
