I've finally begun doing work on Ethereal island. The few monsters I have are chugging away producing shards. It was pretty easy to save to upgrade my hotel to its maximum level. But I find that shards as a currency is pretty unwieldy. I can't feed the monsters with it, can't buy an oven. So the monsters are dependent on the food produced on other islands to level them up. It's super annoying to me that I can't buy a freaking oven and make food for these guys with their currency on their island. Other than buying decorations and structures and removing obstacles, how can I use all that shard currency? Save and exchange some for Diamonds? Build up my Tribal rewards? How do people spend what Ethereal monsters produce?
