Ring-Garden Seed — SR-0086

A seed from the gardens that floated in the rings of Sollen.

In the Long Noon a fifth of all Ithra lived in gardens seeded into the rings of the giant Sollen. The plants there grew in spirals, in low gravity, toward a sun they saw every six hours.

This seed is from a flowering vine that was bred to glow faintly at night, so that the gardens could be seen from Ithris as a thin bright thread across the sky.

Phyllotaxis identical to SR-0004: the Ithra deliberately bred the garden plants to echo the tidal colonies.

Integrity 74%. Seed husk, luminous. 5.2 × 3.4 cm.
