Briar #19
Alert: these plants are fucked. I've never seen anything like this. They think in words. It's all the mother this and the mother that, and they don't respond to me like regular plants would. The root system is incomprehensible.
Oh and I'm almost certain it's them making people walk around like they're made out of warped wood. Something in their pollen, probably, which means breathing the air around them is a really bad idea, except they're practically everywhere so it's not easy to avoid. I think one of them might have got me earlier, since I have no memory of walking all the way out of town.
I know Vallo likes to cook up exciting things for us to deal with on occasion, but this has a parasitic sort of feel and I don't like it at all.
