===Devronian Apearians=== | |||
This is a fruit that is native to this world and is grown on trees. In size it is about as large as a typical softball but with a thin skin and a greenish golden color when fully ripe. It is considered a luxury item within their economy due to the difficulty in transplanting the trees to other worlds. Transporting of the fruit can be risky due to the possibility of spoilage or damage during moving. | |||
===Dunaras Root=== | |||
There are 5 or 6 different plants within the Dunaras family that are traditionally used to create various types of hot beverages. These roots are harvested, dried out and then ground into a fine powder that is then added to hot water to the consistency enjoyed by the drinker.
