--- title: "Flora" url: https://deovandski.github.io/HusbandOutWorld/lore/flora/ section: World Lore spoilers: public layer first, Behind The Scenes after sources: [Legacy/Public/flora.md, Legacy/Behind The Scenes/World Lore/Flora.md] --- ## Plants ### Emerenthy Emerenthy or methyl for some, is a common plant in the forests of Freeish. Mostly known for offering a bit of light at night for people and animals in the forest. Some say that if Trunk people like you, they will get the methyl to guide you. Others think it's egua shit and that they only exist to attract insects to feed on its sweet nectar. You can also rip them off the ground and shake them as an emergency torch, but they don’t last that long. But if you collect enough of them, you can use them as a fibrous addition to any meal, like celery. ### Girdol Girdol is a plant often used for nari gels for its gut-changing properties or as a tea for its lemony soothing taste. You can find it easily in the wild, but since Toleridemians live higher up, they tend to care for it in their home or community greenhouse instead, given how much they consume to ease their stomach after a large meal. ### Magina Magina is a potent mind-altering drug that Forway banned, given the societal risks it imposes. Users experience a blissful state where they live out their dreams or nightmares if they have a terrible trip in such a realistic fashion that afterward, these people will swear the event actually happened to them rather than realizing it was all just a vivid dream. Some highly renowned scientists still research it to cure specific mental ailments like PTSD by trying to reign in and control the drug, but success has been spotty as each individual reacts so uniquely to it it's hard to find patterns. If you see someone completely zoned out, even after you punch them in the face, they are definitely using Magina, with it most likely being bought on the black market from the Black Magina faction. ### Nica Nica is a favorite of many chefs! Its seeds change taste from a cumin-like taste when it's bright pink and unripe to a more black-pepper taste profile when it is ripened with a more profound wine color. Some people found a use for it on nari gel as it has properties to change skin color and to repeal insects as well—although the person using it tends to smell strongly of Nica peppers too, so if they don't like it, they are better off using something else. ### Steen Steen can be easily found in the mouth of Sanbi citizens as they love to chew on the stems to pass the time. It has a calming, slightly chilling effect, with some Darfaries also picking up the habit. Although it is not popular in Gandew, users become lazier and lethargic, especially when chewing the plant leaves where the effect is more potent. You can also see it in nari gels, with both hunters and Sanbi guards loving to plaster the tip of their arrows with it to toxify their prey and unruly people into slowing down and chilling out instead. ### Tibou Tibou is also used for nari gels, but mostly to make your sweat have antibacterial and antifungal properties. It's essentially like taking a shower from the inside out, with self-aware adventurers resorting to using it to smell good when quickly passing through town! Otherwise, it's the go-to plant as the base for soaps, shampoos, and even textiles as well as its cotton-like fiber is quite comfortable, albeit not as durable. ## Fruit Trees ### Cocona Cocona tree is an invasive but handy tree, according to most scientists. Its origin is, without a doubt, pinned upon Buhraies folks since the only thing about this tree that is not foreign is the translucent, colorful foliage it has akin to the Soul tree's bark. The Cocona fruit is double the size of regular coconuts, and opening a fruit to reveal its insides is like opening a loot box. Although you can probably guess the water versus flesh ratio by shaking it and infer the possible color and taste based on the plant's surroundings, you will likely not be better than random chance! Flavors and colors are unexpected, with better odds of finding tastier, sweeter, and fruitier ones in farms around Deltacross. However, if you're looking for the coveted Cocona fruit with Soul Tree colorful water because of the famous folktale that it will extend your life if you gulp its umami-tasting water down as soon as you crack it open, then you're better off prowling about the beaches for wild Cocona trees. Also, remember the buffs or debuffs the Cocona interface gives! They aren't much, sometimes as little as increasing your bladder or boosting sweat production. However, it can be just enough between life and death when paired with other interfaces, as this one persistently lingers in the body for weeks at a time, with no known way to reset or flush it. ### Gosutam Gosutam is commonly found as far south as Freeish Kingdom to as far east as Sanbi Kingdom. It's a common tree to have in your yard as it yields small batches of fruit throughout the entire year from its bark, making it easy pickings for even children to snack on. That is where the easy ends for opening the fruit and extracting the edible portion require skills. The exterior's tougher yellow and black skin gives in to a mushy fleshy interior that protects a whitish slimy skin covering the seeds. That whitish, slimy skin is what you want to indulge in for its mangosteen, vanilla-like flavor. However, suppose you press on too hard when opening the fruit, mix in the fleshy interior with it, or somehow get anything else from this fruit on your tongue; then you're in for a bad time! Like chewing on used coffee grounds, the flavor will turn bitter and vegetal. Some parents actively plant this tree for their kids to snack on because it teaches them patience and determination. Some scientists agree with them, while others think there are many other factors with more substantial weight on improving patience than a simple fruit tree that is a bitch and a half to eat. ### Greenbread Greenbread is a dangerous fruit! Not because it is poisonous, but instead, if it falls on you from the usual 15 meters tall tree, it will transform your body into the same jelly consistency of a shapeshifter. That is, if it doesn't overripe and explodes. If it does, then pretty much everything in the vicinity will be covered in golden yellow goo and seeds and then decay, leaving a Durian-like smell that will attract a lot of fauna, which then attracts a lot of beasts. Each tree will only have three or four greenbreads hanging off it at a time, and they take most of the year to reach perfect ripping, with a consistency close to Golden Nugget Jackfruit. However, the taste is comparable to melon pan flavor, while other varieties present flavors closer to banana mixed with pineapple. The seeds, meanwhile, taste like cacao when roasted. The fruit's leftover core is also a binding agent commonly used for creating bone wood or glue. ### Hifuna Yabuca See Beasts \-\> Hifuna People ### Lonllow Lonllow is like Yabucas, where it is prone to mutations, but instead of creating new variants, they all result in the plant withering away. The Buhraies' ancient species gave the name Lonllow after they made it by tampering with their soul interface and mixing it with different species. Scientists believe they were trying to create a plant with high energetic content and palatable to their taste, but it failed harshly, leaving it a highly finicky plant to grow and farm. Now only a few families have figured out what is needed to produce them at a scale. However, even so, they can't match demand. Sorefaries alone seem to nearly go berserk and spend all their balls just to get a taste of the caramelly banana flavor from the small-looking blueish-looking fruit. ### Purplebread Purplebread is a food staple of Sundeath and surrounding semi-arid regions. The small-sized tree, or large-sized plant, has a trunk covered in spikes and pointed leaves covered in a clear sticky fluid that causes hives solely if don't consume its fruit. The fruit it bears is brownish and covered in hairy spikes that won't tear your skin. It doesn't look that appetizing, especially when paired with the pungent smell akin to the fart of someone who ate too many eggs. However, locals, adventurers, and merchants alike know a secret! Just rub the fruit on the sand until the brownish skin is smooth as a baby's butt, and the smell will disappear! Opening the fruit will reveal a pinkish-goopy interior that tastes between strawberry and raspberry. The purple flesh is kinda flavorless, but you should still eat it as it is pretty nutritious or a must if you sweat a bucket. ### Rakuja Rakuja is a vine that often has a symbiotic mutualistic relationship with the trees it infests. Found only in colder climates, it helps the host trees by injecting an antifreeze gel it creates when it detects lower temps. This relationship works great in regions like Gandew, Fuhrair, and Old Fuhrair. The same can't be said with Tolerideme, where Wood People took over the land. The relationship between them always turns Amensalistic. Not only have scientists figured out that this antifreeze gel is an excellent toxin for killing Wood People, but they also have their own vines, which they use to remove and kill off any Rakuja that tries to grow on them. Nonetheless, people drool over the tangy, tart flavor fruits with citrusy notes and heavy aromatic smells! Be it dried or not, you can find them across all kingdoms, but depending on where you are, be ready to fork over a lot of balls to fill up your belly on Rakuja. If you don't have much money, you can get your fix with some Rakuja hard juice that will get you drunk too. ### Tenderthrough Tenderthrough is the name humans gave this peculiar-shaped fruit tree after penetrating their way into the islands southeast of Sanbi and purging the ancient species that lived there. It tastes very close to papaya, with the seeds still being used to cleanse and heal one's guts far more cheaply than using Body Restore or other interfaces. There are plantations in the Freeish kingdom, but it just doesn't taste as good as the ones from the islands, so get your ass in the next boat to the islands if you want to experience its most authentic flavor! ### Wood Yabuca See Beasts \-\> Wood People ### Yabuca Yabuca fruit, nowadays, refers to a specific coveted variety named Jonabuca, created by a family of scientists by grafting the best properties of the thousands of wild types as the Yabuca tree seems way too willing to mutate. Some believe a sneeze around a seedling is enough to change the flavor profile of the future fruits to snot, which later a scientist confirmed was indeed the case after investing way too much time in such a specific endeavor. The highly coveted variety Jonabuca is farmed intensively in the Freeish kingdom for its consistently sweet appley flavor and crispy texture. Some of the other types are still considered tasty, with some people swearing they are better than Jonabuca! These different variants often have multiple tastes or textures, are inconsistent in their yields, or look or are straight-up unappetizing—with a notorious Yabuca tree being the perfect example after it sprouted by an outhouse and began producing Yabucas that literally tasted like shit. Regardless, anyone with extra balls in their pocket will fork over to get the coveted variety instead to sink their teeth into. It's just like the ad plastered over the fruit shop that says, "If it ain't Jonabuca, then it ain't Yabuca!" ## Non-Fruit Trees ### Black Sapphire Tree Black Sapphire, a.k.a black wood, is now a highly endangered species, with a single tree fetching a sapphire ball or more in the open market. Scientists are still determining exactly how it survives without leaves and multiplies without bearing seeds, but they have a strong hint as the surroundings of one of these trees are always barren, devoid of life. The longer one of these trees lives, the bigger the lifeless area around them becomes. Old tales from before the fall of Ganyrami stated that when one of those trees grew large enough, one could feel a malaise taking over just by standing around it. Usurpuing and storing soul energy is definitely at the core of this tree's properties, as its perfectly black wood can prevent soul energy leakage like no other tree, even better than the soul tree itself. Not only that, the timber it produces is as tough as diamonds, requiring the most expensive and intense tools to process a single tree. ### Soul Tree Soul Tree is the most well know tree across all four kingdoms. Its shiny, metallic-looking bark is unique-looking, and so does its colorful green timber when cut down. The green wood has similar-ish soul leakage prevention properties as black sapphire, but it doesn't even come close to the same toughness. Still, it's far more available and doesn't come with the land-decaying impact! Several tree nurseries around the Freeish kingdom are dedicated to it as its demand is always at an all-time high, both for decorative and practical purposes. Soul trees are common in the wild, too, albeit you will have to deal with the trunk people attached to it as they won't go down without a fight. ### Tastyleaf Tastyleaf is an absolute mega chungus of a tree, measuring about 104 meters tall, with girth alone in the upper 40 meters. No other tree comes even close to its size or properties. It was discovered inside what had to be a not-so-secret garden by one of the first tribes of humans who fled the Buhraies plains. Accounts of that history were passed down orally, so narratives diverged on whether humans killed the Buhraies garden owners and took over before they could call for help or if it was simply abandoned instead. Either way, this tree granted humans a sanctuary against the hungry beast and fauna as it has similar light properties to fost stone, including lighting up when it rains and repelling beasts and fauna. The caveat is that it doesn't produce seeds, and trying to graft doesn't work either, so now it is a highly protected tree by locals and Forway. Why Forway? Because the leaves are also delicious! Shredded smoked Bagarisa butt meat topped with leaves in hard gyut bread is proof of that! The leaves have a lettuce texture with a flavor profile on a spectrum between black pepper, salt, garlic, onion, jalapeno, and green curry—the flavors vary depending on the harvest, leaf age, and from where it is picked, leaving some people to dedicate their whole lives and expertise to this trade. Except for the leaves rot quickly, leaving anyone outside Tastyleaf only tasting the dried, ground-up version of the leaves, a popular spice sold across all kingdoms. ## Shrubs ### Basi Basi berries are gathered and then beaten down mechanically to separate the flesh into a thick pulp akin to petroleum jelly. The dark thick pulp comes with an earthy, slightly bitter taste akin to mixing 80% dark chocolate and blackberry with a tinge of red huckleberry, and it's a food staple on Freeish Kingdom. Folks over there eat it with literally everything, pairing it with grilled or fried fish, dried jerky, and even adding sugar and ice cubes and eating it as a dessert. It is also quite heavy on fiber, which explains why the Freeish Kingdom basically grinds to a halt for a bit after lunch and dinner! Other kingdoms likely don't partake much in that cuisine as the basi pulp only tastes good fresh, and as soon as you refrigerate or freeze it, the flavor breaks down to tasting like dirt. ### Gyut Gyut was considered a staple good by Forway officials as they established the value of a single pearl ball equal to one Bagabone (about one kg) of freshly picked gyut. Its sweet-tart, acidic taste resembles cherry mixed with cranberries, and granny smith apples are a favorite across the kingdoms and also by the fauna too. Some restaurants feed their livestock nothing but gyut for their remarkable property of making the meat sweeter, giving it a caramelized characteristic when roasted in open flames. ### Siguash Siguash tastes akin to Nam Dok Mai mango but far smaller, with a hint of pomegranate. Some intentionally leave the fruit to overripe into a tangy yellow color as the extra sugars ferment and create an on-the-go alcoholic drink. Just watch how many fermented Siguash you're popping in, as it doesn't show mercy even if you're a troglodyte of a Darfaries. ## Grass ### Carbey Carbey was annoying grass everyone hated it, at least until they discovered how tasty it is to mix it with water and yeast and then shove it in a wood stove. Farmed intensively in Freeish, like most other things, but some holdouts in Tolerideme insist their Carbey yields taste far better, specifically when used for spirits, despite it being much harder to cultivate over there. Carbey is another staple food Forway uses to establish the base value of a single pearl ball. ### Domar Carbey Domar Carbey is a version of Carbey created by one of the three smart sisters by crossbreeding with Wood People. It only grows in the Tolerideme region, as it is de facto the base of the Tolerideme economy. From spirits, food export, clothing, etc! Everything comes from Domar Carbey. The wheat itself tastes slightly cheesy, like parmesan, with a rich grain smell that gives an extra oompf to whatever you bake! Although it only goes well with desserts if you're talking about specific ones like Gyut bread or other deserts where it's on the citrusy spectrum. Something like creme brule, pudding, or anything with more yolk taste doesn't seem to work. ### Lehuj Lehuj is the go-to remedy and nari gel to deal with hungover, toxins or poisons for its unmatched liver-enhancing properties. Given how easy and abundant it works, some also use it for other digestive benefits or as a catalyst for different nari gel reactions. It could also be used as a terrible punishment if you inject it into someone's food or drink by overdriving their liver and forcing it shut down soon after; the difference between remedy and poison is just the dosage, after all. ## Mushrooms ### Lakata Lakata tastes like roasted grapes, but don't let that pleasant taste fool you! It is good at overdriving the parasympathetic nervous system, and if you're not careful enough, your heart will stop. Many adventurers and gatherers alike spent endless hours searching away for them around rotting trees as they are considered the bread and butter of many nari gels. ### Panita Panita is another mushroom that disguises a terrible secret behind its pleasant smell and taste of blood orange. It makes you bleed from everywhere, and if you keep ingesting it, it turns into melting skin, flesh, and bones, and you will feel most of it before you die. Quite pleasant indeed! Forway has considered banning this in the past, but then it would mean they couldn't use it either to punish shitty people, so it's still legal to this day. ### Tyr Tyr affects the nervous system like Lakata, but it focuses its effects on messing with the sympathetic nervous system and reality perception instead. The worst effect people report is hearing or seeing disturbing things while feeling locked inside your body because you're trying to fight or run away from it, but your fight-or-flight doesn't work. It's not too far off from sleep paralysis. There are other properties from Tyr as well, like triggering narcoleptic sleep, but isolating it has been challenging. A research paper reported being able to hear others' thoughts as well, but the scientists who tried it could not replicate it and chalked it up to a bad trip instead. ## Roots ### Cadioca Cadioca is poisonous if eaten raw! One must soak it in a river for two days and then let it dry in the sun for three days before it can be used for cooking. How people discovered it? Pure hunger from back on Ganyrami days. The taste is pretty close to cassava, with most people consuming it either grounded and roasted into coarse grains or fried like fresh fries, but chunkier and with skin on for that extra crispy taste. The latter is a favorite across the four kingdoms, but they must pay a premium for transport from Freeish, where it is farmed intensively. ### Lolish Lolish is a favorite of Gandew, with some Darfaries making the track all the way to the semi-arid desert transitional zone to pick up their own lolish because that's just who they are. The ginger-flavored root goes well in their cuisine and drinks to warm you up on frigid desert nights. ### Documentation Notation * See **Beasts** for Wood People/Trunk People. * This list is not complete; rather, it includes species that impact the economy/story to a greater extent. * See Economy Calculator for Prices. * Flora Average Soul Energy Tier is **Tier I** with **1** or less Soul Recharge/Day. ### Distance Cost Tier * # **Tier I (Cheap Goods)** * Berries, Fruit, Fungus & Grass. * # **Tier II (Common Goods)** * Flowers, Mushrooms & Roots. * # **Tier III (Expensive Goods)** * Banned Items. * # **Tier IV (Nobility Goods)** * None ## Plants ### Emerenthy * **Website Description** * **Emerenthy** or methyl for some, is a common plant in the forests of Freeish.

If it does, then pretty much everything in the vicinity will be covered in golden yellow goo and seeds and then decay, leaving a Durian-like smell that will attract a lot of fauna, which then attracts a lot of beasts. Each tree will have only three or four greenbreads hanging from it at a time, and they take most of the year to reach full ripeness, with a consistency close to that of Golden Nugget Jackfruit. However, the taste is comparable to melon pan, while other varieties have flavors closer to banana mixed with pineapple. The seeds, meanwhile, taste like cacao when roasted. The fruit's leftover core is also a binding agent commonly used for creating bone wood or glue. * **Isekai History** * Huge tree that grows in the large forests around the Freeish Kingdom and Blood City. * Produces a fruit that tastes like melon pan * Only a few at a time, and it is hard to reach.

Can help in a desperate situation. * If the person hits a “good” one, they will go berserk and rampage for days on before they pass out, if they don’t just drop dead.

The Buhraies' ancient species gave the name Lonllow after they made it by tampering with their soul interface and mixing it with different species. Scientists believe they were trying to create a plant with high energetic content and palatable to their taste, but it failed harshly, leaving it a highly finicky plant to grow and farm. Now only a few families have figured out what is needed to produce them at a scale. However, they can't meet demand. Sorefaries alone seem to nearly go berserk and spend all their balls just to get a taste of the caramelly banana flavor from the small-looking bluish-looking fruit. * **Isekai History** * Brought over by Buhraies while working with Summoning. Came after Yabucas, but it didn’t seem to be as successful. It is extremely finicky and picky to grow in farmland. Also, fragile even in the wild. Maybe that’s partly why Buhraies created a special environment for it by creating the endlessfog island. * See Endlessfog for more info. * **Scientific History** * Banana \+ Caramel flavor. * **Habitat** * See above. * ## **Economic Value** * ### **Lonllow Fruit** * **Isekai History** * See above * **Visual Reference** * See Item Visual Reference * ### **Dried Lonllow** * **Isekai History** * Often done for food stock, selling to other kingdoms, baking in food, or on-the-road snacks. * **Visual Reference** * ![][image46] * ### **Lonllow Juice** * **Isekai History** * Kinda good.

Inside is the same as normal banana ### Purplebread * **Website Description** * **Purplebread** is a staple food of Sundeath and the surrounding semi-arid regions. The small-sized tree, or large-sized plant, has a trunk covered in spikes and pointed leaves covered in a clear sticky fluid that causes hives solely if you don't consume its fruit. The fruit it bears is brownish and covered in hairy spikes that won't tear your skin. It doesn't look that appetizing, especially when paired with the pungent smell of a fart from someone who ate too many eggs. However, locals, adventurers, and merchants alike know a secret\! Just rub the fruit on the sand until the brownish skin is smooth as a baby's butt, and the smell will disappear\! Opening the fruit will reveal a pinkish-goopy interior that tastes between strawberry and raspberry. The purple flesh is kinda flavorless, but you should still eat it as it is pretty nutritious or a must if you sweat a bucket. * **Isekai History** * A wild cactus-like tree that produces a smaller version of the greenbread, or at least in appearance. * The brown shell smells pungent, like a fart of someone who ate too many eggs. * If you rub it in the sand, it removes the smell and reveals the delectable interior. * **Scientific History** * Prickly Pear taste * **Habitat** * \~0km \- \~1km * Transitional zone of the desert * ## **Economic Value** * ### **Purplebread Fruit** * **Isekai History** * See above * **Visual Reference** * ![][image29] * ### **Dried Purplebread** * **Isekai History** * Often done for food stock, selling to other kingdoms, baking into food, or as on-the-road snacks. * **Visual Reference** * ![][image30] * ### **Purplebread Juice** * **Isekai History** * Refreshing * **Visual Reference** * **![][image31]** * ### **Purplebread Hard Juice** * **Isekai History** * Fermented Juice * **Visual Reference** * **![][image32]** * **Tastes Like** * Strawberry/Raspberry * **Growth** * All year round * **Soul Energy Capabilities** * **Interface** * Spikes * **Skills** * Grow Spikes * Sweat induction * **Visual Reference** * ![][image33]![][image34] ### Rakuja * **Website Description** * **Rakuja** is a vine that often forms a mutualistic symbiotic relationship with the trees it infests. Found only in colder climates, it helps host trees by injecting an antifreeze gel it produces when it detects lower temperatures. This relationship works well in regions such as Gandew, Fuhrair, and Old Fuhrair. The same can't be said of Tolerideme, where Wood People took over the land. The relationship between them always turns Amensalistic. Not only have scientists figured out that this antifreeze gel is an excellent toxin for killing Wood People, but they also have their own vines, which they use to remove and kill off any Rakuja that tries to grow on them. Nonetheless, people drool over the tangy, tart flavor of citrusy fruits and their heavy aromatic scent\! Be it dried or not, you can find them across all kingdoms, but depending on where you are, be ready to fork over a lot of balls to fill up your belly on Rakuja. If you don't have much money, you can get your fix with some Rakuja hard juice that will get you drunk too. * **Isekai History** * Vine that grows only at higher altitudes due to slightly colder climates. * **Scientific History** * Maracuja * Fruit is \~2x bigger * **Habitat** * \~2km \- \~4km * Found naturally on the base of Fuhrair, Old Fuhrair, & Gandew.

It tastes very close to papaya, and the seeds are still used to cleanse and heal one's guts far more cheaply than using Body Restore or other interfaces. There are plantations in the Freeish kingdom, but it just doesn't taste as good as the ones from the islands, so get your ass in the next boat to the islands if you want to experience its most authentic flavor\! * **Isekai History** * A local fruit that is found in the dense forests and on both islands. * The name from Ancient Species got lost.

Some believe a sneeze around a seedling is enough to change the flavor profile of the future fruits to snot, which a scientist later confirmed was indeed the case after investing way too much time in such a specific endeavor. * The highly coveted variety Jonabuca is farmed intensively in the Freeish kingdom for its consistently sweet, appley flavor and crispy texture. Some of the other types are still considered tasty, with some people swearing they are better than Jonabuca\! These different variants often have multiple tastes or textures, are inconsistent in their yields, or look or are straight-up unappetizing—with a notorious Yabuca tree being the perfect example after it sprouted by an outhouse and began producing Yabucas that literally tasted like shit. Regardless, anyone with extra balls in their pocket will fork over to get the coveted variety rather than sink their teeth into it. It's just like the ad plastered over the fruit shop that says, "If it ain't Jonabuca, then it ain't Yabuca\!" * **Isekai History** * A wild fruit popular among adventurers, known for its tendency to mutate in the wild and create some variants. Its flavor is unlike anything else in this world, almost as if it didn’t belong there. * Buhraies brought it to life using genetic engineering. The main variety they brought remains the most popular and most resistant. The second is Wood Yabuca. Many species exist in the wild, but some fear it will eventually reduce the fruit variety to only Yabucas. * **Scientific History** * Cosmic apples (the main variety) * **Habitat** * \~0km \- \~1km * Everywhere in terms of breeds, but the Yabuca that people want is only found in the south, where it is farmed intensively. * Yabuca variety (also referred to as the traditional variety) is farmed in the Freeish Kingdom. * ## **Economic Value** * ### **Yabuca Fruit** * **Isekai History** * See Above * **Visual Reference** * See Item Visual Reference * ### **Dried Yabuca** * **Isekai History** * Often done for food stock, selling to other kingdoms, baking in food, or on-the-road snacks. * **Visual Reference** * ![][image20] * ### **Yabuca Juice** * **Isekai History** * Refreshing * **Visual Reference** * **![][image21]** * ### **Yabuca Hard Juice** * **Isekai History** * Fermented Juice * **Visual Reference** * ![][image22] * **Tastes Like** * Slightly sweet, fleshy, with carrot notes. * **Growth** * Throughout the year. * **Soul Energy Capabilities** * **Interface** * None * **Skills** * Adrenaline Inducer * **Visual Reference** * **![][image23]** ## Non-Fruit Trees ### Black Sapphire Tree * **Website Description** * **Black Sapphire**, a.k.a black wood, is now a highly endangered species, with a single tree fetching a sapphire ball or more in the open market. Scientists are still determining exactly how it survives without leaves and multiplies without bearing seeds, but they have a strong hint, as the surroundings of one of these trees are always barren, devoid of life. The longer one of these trees lives, the bigger the lifeless area around it becomes. Old tales from before the fall of Ganyrami stated that when one of those trees grew large enough, one could feel a malaise taking over just by standing around it. Usurping and storing soul energy is definitely at the core of this tree's properties, as its perfectly black wood can prevent soul energy leakage like no other tree, even better than the soul tree itself. Not only that, the timber it produces is as tough as diamonds, requiring the most expensive and intense tools to process a single tree. * **Isekai History** * Highly sought after, a single small or medium tree can be as costly as a whole sapphire. Because of that, it has been driven to near extinction. * Some believe it was an attempt by the ancient species Buhraies to screw with either the Lishies, or the humans that hid in the forest, or both. Some scientists believe it was a soul energy storage device instead. Buhraies were seeding around for a future full-force invasion that never happened because it looks like a dead tree, and it soaks up soul energy from its surroundings. * More commonly known today as black wood. * **Scientific History** * Dalbergia melaxylon * **Habitat** * Rarely found between Flatland and Forway. Virtually always found as lone trees, and never found amongst other trees. * ![][image56] * ## **Economic Value** * ### **Soul Wood** * **Isekai History** * Has a dark color to it, and is dense * Used often with Nari stones, sigils, and containers holding soul energy to prevent Soul Energy leakage * **Visual Reference** * ![][image57] * **Tastes Like** * wood. * **Growth** * Slowly growth.

Some guesses are that they are interconnected somehow, like a fungus * **Soul Energy Capabilities** * **Interface** * Black Wood * **Skills** * Soul energy leech. * **Visual Reference** * ### Soul Tree * **Website Description** * **Soul Tree** is the best-known tree across all four kingdoms. Its shiny, metallic-looking bark is unique, and so is its colorful green timber when cut. The green wood has similar-ish soul leakage-prevention properties to black sapphire, but it doesn't even come close to the same toughness. Still, it's far more readily available and doesn't have the land-decaying impact\! Several tree nurseries around the Freeish kingdom are dedicated to it, as demand is always at an all-time high, for both decorative and practical purposes. Soul trees are common in the wild, too, albeit you will have to deal with the trunk people attached to it as they won't go down without a fight. * **Isekai History** * Has a deep green interior, with the bark rather metallic/shiny. * They are an example of flora that somehow escaped the isekai world and ended up back on IRL. Buhraies were mucking around with the idea of dispatching things into the soul realm, and that’s how this tree made its way into IRL. * Trunk people love this tree\! * **Scientific History** * Eucalyptus deglupta * **Habitat** * Found around Blood City and Freeish. Not really found elsewhere in the kingdoms. They are lone trees that sprout up from small colorful seeds. Tunk people love to live on them. * ## **Economic Value** * ### **Soul Wood** * **Isekai History** * Used often with Nari stones, sigils, and containers holding Soul Energy to prevent Soul Energy leakage. * **Visual Reference** * ![][image54] * ### **Soul Wood Seeds** * **Isekai History** * Used in Nari gels or consumed on their own to provide caffeine.

No other tree comes even close to its size or properties. It was discovered inside what had to be a not-so-secret garden by one of the first human tribes that fled the Buhraies plains. Accounts of that history were passed down orally, so narratives diverged on whether humans killed the Buhraies garden owners and took over before they could call for help, or if it was simply abandoned instead. Either way, this tree granted humans a sanctuary against the hungry beast and fauna, as it has similar light properties to fost stone, including lighting up when it rains and repelling them. The caveat is that it doesn't produce seeds, and trying to graft doesn't work either, so now it is a highly protected tree by locals and Forway. Why Forway? Because the leaves are also delicious\! Shredded smoked Bagarisa butt meat topped with leaves in hard gyut bread is proof of that\! The leaves have a lettuce texture with a flavor profile on a spectrum between black pepper, salt, garlic, onion, jalapeno, and green curry—the flavors vary depending on the harvest, leaf age, and where it is picked, leaving some people to dedicate their whole lives and expertise to this trade. Except for the leaves, which rot quickly, leaving anyone outside Tastyleaf to taste only the dried, ground-up version of the leaves, a popular spice sold across all kingdoms. * **Isekai History** * An incredibly girthy and tall tree measuring 104 meters tall and a diameter of about 45 meters. * It has white leaves that fall every Fall. No seeds or spores are generated, and stem cuttings do not seem to work as they never grow. * The tree also lights up when it rains and helps keep beasts from Hifuna away from their settlement. * Some people say it’s an offshoot of Wood People, and it listens and reacts to its surroundings, especially feelings. However, not everyone agrees with it. * **Scientific History** * Linden (The tilia family) * **Habitat** * TastyLeaf. Single massive tree. * ## **Economic Value** * ### **Fresh Leaves** * **Isekai History** * Often used in Sandwiches.

The dark, thick pulp comes with an earthy, slightly bitter taste akin to mixing 80% dark chocolate and blackberry with a tinge of red huckleberry, and it's a food staple on Freeish Kingdom. Folks over there eat it with literally everything, pairing it with grilled or fried fish, dried jerky, and even adding sugar and ice cubes and eating it as a dessert. It is also quite heavy on fiber, which explains why the Freeish Kingdom basically grinds to a halt for a bit after lunch and dinner\! Other kingdoms likely don't partake much in that cuisine as the basi pulp only tastes good fresh, and as soon as you refrigerate or freeze it, the flavor breaks down to tasting like dirt. * **Isekai History** * Bushy plant that grows in the wild, or farmed intensively in Freeish. * **Scientific History** * Acai (but as a bushy plant instead.) * **Habitat** * More often found in the south, near Freeish. Farmed heavily over there. Other kingdoms don’t seem to really partake on it. * ## **Economic Value** * ### **Basi Berries** * **Isekai History** * It takes 4 hours to strip a bush tree of all its berries, yielding between 1 and 2 kg of acai berries. * Things can be halved/speeden up if you use a shaker. * Each berry is about the size of a fingertip and needs to be separated from the hair-like structure. * **Visual Reference** * See Item Visual Reference * ### **Basi Pulp** * **Isekai History** * Separating the pulp from the fruit.

Its sweet-tart, acidic taste resembles cherries mixed with cranberries, and Granny Smith apples are a favorite among the kingdoms and the fauna. Some restaurants feed their livestock nothing but gyut for its remarkable ability to make the meat sweeter, giving it a caramelized characteristic when roasted over open flames. * **Isekai History** * A bushy plant that grows on lower terrains. * Any animal that eats it will make their meat slightly sweet. * **Scientific History** * Acerola * **Habitat** * Found across the kingdom in non-desert areas \< 1km height. * Farmed more intensively in the Freeish Kingdom. * ## **Economic Value** * ### **Gyut Berries** * **Isekai History** * It takes \~30 minutes to 1 hour to pick 1 kg of berries, making the bush big.

Some intentionally leave the fruit to overripe, turning it a tangy yellow as the extra sugars ferment and create an on-the-go alcoholic drink. Just watch how many fermented Siguash you're popping in, as it doesn't show mercy even if you're a troglodyte of a Darfaries. * **Isekai History** * Bushy plant that grows in the wild. * **Scientific History** * Siriguela * **Habitat** * Found across the kingdom in non-desert areas \< 1km height, especially in forests * ## **Economic Value** * ### **Siguash Berries** * **Isekai History** * It takes \~60 minutes to harvest 1 kg of berries, giving each bush less fruit than Gyut. * It is a staple good, and is used to determine the value of Ball currency. * Each berry is about the size of a fingertip. * **Visual Reference** * See Item Visual Reference * ### **Dried Siguash** * **Isekai History** * Often done for food stock, selling to other kingdoms, baking in food, or on-the-road snacks. * **Visual Reference** * **![][image64]\*Like Cherry tomatoes.

Farmed intensively in Freeish, like most other things, but some holdouts in Tolerideme insist their Carbey yields taste far better, specifically when used for spirits, despite it being much harder to cultivate over there. Carbey is another staple food Forway uses to establish the base value of a single pearl ball. * **Isekai History** * Used to make beer, bread, and everything in between. * **Scientific History** * Wheat * **Habitat** * Throughout the entire lower region, except the desert. * ## **Economic Value** * ### **Carbey** * **Isekai History** * Used for feeding Eguas, or making more stuff. * **Visual Reference** * See below * ### **Carbey Flour** * **Isekai History** * See Carbey * **Visual Reference** * ![][image70] * ### **Bread** * **Isekai History** * It’s Bread.

It only grows in the Tolerideme region, as it is de facto the base of the Tolerideme economy. From spirits, food export, clothing, etc\! Everything comes from Domar Carbey. The wheat itself tastes slightly cheesy, like parmesan, with a rich grain smell that gives an extra oompf to whatever you bake\! It only goes well with desserts if you're talking about specific ones like Gyut bread or other desserts on the citrusy spectrum. Something like crème brûlée, pudding, or anything with a more yolk-like taste doesn't seem to work. * **Isekai History** * A version of the Carbey created by one of the three smart sisters by crossbreeding with Wood People. * Used to make beer, bread, and everything in between. * More nutritional than Carbey, and tastes better as well. * **Scientific History** * Wheat * **Habitat** * Buhraies Plains * Tolerideme Kingdom * ## **Economic Value** * ### **Domar Carbey** * **Isekai History** * Tolerideme has the upper hand in planting it for trading. * **Visual Reference** * See below * ### **Domar Carbey Flour** * **Isekai History** * See Domar Carbey * **Visual Reference** * ![][image79] * ### **Domar Bread** * **Isekai History** * It’s Bread.

Given how easy and abundant it is, some also use it for other digestive benefits or as a catalyst for different nari gel reactions. It could also be used as a terrible punishment if you inject it into someone's food or drink by overloading their liver and forcing it shut down soon after; the difference between remedy and poison is just the dosage, after all. * **Isekai History** * Used for Smooth Gut Nari, and for its digestive properties, specifically liver. Also great as a hangover remedy. * **Scientific History** * Blue Festuca * **Habitat** * Throughout the entire lower region, except the desert. * ## **Economic Value** * ### **Lehuj Grass** * **Isekai History** * See above * **Visual Reference** * ![][image86] * **Tastes Like** * Slightly sweet and acidic. * **Growth** * Wild * **Soul Energy Capabilities** * **Interface** * None * **Skills** * None * **Visual Reference** * ![][image87] ## Mushrooms ### Lakata * **Website Description** * **Lakata** tastes like roasted grapes, but don't let that pleasant taste fool you\! It is good at slowing the sympathetic nervous system, and if you're not careful, your heart will stop. Many adventurers and gatherers alike spent endless hours searching for them around rotting trees as they are considered the bread and butter of many nari gels. * **Isekai History** * A fungus is often used for slowing down the heartbeat. Found in rotting trees * **Scientific History** * Chaga (Inonotus obliquus) * **Habitat** * 0km * Muddy, Deep forest of the south. * ## **Economic Value** * ### **Lakata Caps** * **Isekai History** * See above * **Visual Reference** * See below * **Tastes Like** * Roasted Grapes. * **Growth** * Several month * **Soul Energy Capabilities** * **Interface** * Fungus * **Skills** * Pacifier * **Visual Reference** * **![][image88]** ### Panita * **Website Description** * **Panita** is another mushroom that conceals a terrible secret behind its pleasant smell and blood-orange taste. It makes you bleed from everywhere, and if you keep ingesting it, it turns into melting skin, flesh, and bones, and you will feel most of it before you die. Quite pleasant indeed\! Forway has considered banning this in the past, but that would mean they couldn't use it to punish shitty people, so it's still legal to this day. * **Isekai History** * A mushroom often used for Bleed out Nari gel * **Scientific History** * Reishi (Ganoderma lucidum) * **Habitat** * 0km * Muddy, Deep forest of the south. * ## **Economic Value** * ### **Panita Caps** * **Isekai History** * See above * **Visual Reference** * See below * **Tastes Like** * Blood Oranges. * **Growth** * One month * **Soul Energy Capabilities** * **Interface** * Mushroom * **Skills** * Melt \*When damaged * Bleed \*When damaged * **Visual Reference** * **![][image89]** ### Tyr * **Website Description** * **Tyr** affects the nervous system like Lakata, but it focuses on messing with the sympathetic nervous system and perception of reality instead. The worst effect people report is hearing or seeing disturbing things while feeling locked inside your body because you're trying to fight or run away from it, but your fight-or-flight doesn't work. It's not too far off from sleep paralysis. There are other properties from Tyr as well, like triggering narcoleptic sleep, but isolating it has been challenging. A research paper reported that some participants could hear others' thoughts as well, but the scientists who tried it could not replicate it and chalked it up to a bad trip instead. * **Isekai History** * A fungus similar to lakata, but it is far too poisonous (creates audio/visual hallucinations) * **Scientific History** * Exsudoporus frostii * **Habitat** * 0km * Muddy, Deep forest of the south. * ## **Economic Value** * ### **Tyr Caps** * **Isekai History** * See above * **Visual Reference** * See below * **Tastes Like** * Mushroomy apples. * **Growth** * Several month * **Soul Energy Capabilities** * **Interface** * Fungus * **Skills** * Hallucinate * **Visual Reference** * **![][image90]** ## Roots ### Cadioca * **Website Description** * **Cadioca** is poisonous if eaten raw\! One must soak it in a river for two days and then let it dry in the sun for three days before it can be used for cooking. How people discover it? Pure hunger from back on Ganyrami days. The taste is pretty close to cassava, with most people consuming it either ground and roasted into coarse grains or fried like fresh fries, but chunkier and with the skin on for that extra-crispy taste. The latter is a favorite across the four kingdoms, but they must pay a premium for transport from Freeish, where it is farmed intensively. * **Isekai History** * Poisonous if eaten raw. Needs to be soaked in the river for 2 Days, then dried in the sun. * **Scientific History** * Cassava * **Habitat** * A root found in the lower lands. * Heavily farmed in Freeish. * ## **Economic Value** * ### **Cadioca Roots** * **Isekai History** * One of the basis of food in the kingdoms. * **Visual Reference** * See below * ### **Cadioca Flour** * **Isekai History** * Just like Domar Carbey flour * **Visual Reference** * **![][image91]** * ### **Cadioca Coarse Flour** * **Isekai History** * Used to eat with all kinds of things, like Farinha. * **Visual Reference** * **![][image92]** * ### **Fried Cadioca** * **Isekai History** * A popular food throughout the kingdom, also invented in the Freeish Kingdom. * **Visual Reference** * **![][image93]** * **Tastes Like** * Cassava * **Growth** * \~2 Seasons * **Soul Energy Capabilities** * **Interface** * None * **Skills** * None * **Visual Reference** * ![][image94] ### Lolish * **Website Description** * **Lolish** is a favorite of Gandew, with some Darfaries making the track all the way to the semi-arid desert transitional zone to pick up their own lolish because that's just who they are. The ginger-flavored root pairs well with their cuisine and drinks, warming you up on frigid desert nights. * **Isekai History** * A root found in the desert of Gandew * **Scientific History** * Ginger * **Habitat** * Found buried in the desert (closer to transitional zones) * ## **Economic Value** * ### **Lolish Roots** * **Isekai History** * See above * **Visual Reference** * See below * **Tastes Like** * Ginger * **Growth** * \~2 Seasons * **Soul Energy Capabilities** * **Interface** * None * **Skills** * None * **Visual Reference** * ![][image95]
