Hiya,
I've noticed that it's possible at a certain point on the map (see screenshot) to cast spells on the lizards inside the cave. It's an easy way to obtain crystals for creating major health/mana potions, but I just wanted to check if it was considered an exploit, since it completely bypasses the need to possess hatchlings to harvest the crystals.
