Hunger. Thirst. Water dripping upon saturated moss. A wound on the {{Lore Link|Hist}} tree, oozing {{Lore Link|Hist Sap|sap}} like slow tears. Golden light, piercing the darkness like an arrow. Lightning. Sparks.
{{Lore Link|Betzi}} blinked several times, considering the visions. Why did the Hist show her the same thing? She wondered if her meditations were any use. She touched the fruit, nudging aside the woven twigs forming its nest.
They called it fruit, as it came from the Hist, but none ate this hardened lump. This fruit was exceptionally rare, and yet, the Hist wanted her to bring it to {{Lore Link|Hissmir}}. To use it, somehow.
