There's a unique form of energy in Natlan called "Phlogiston". You'll find it in the environment in various forms, including a magma-like liquid and a crystal-like solid.

Saurian companions consume "Phlogiston" to perform certain movements. When it's used up, you can replenish it from touching "Phlogiston" or by collecting "Phlogiston"-rich items, then, they'll be full of energy again.
