What a masterpiece! I'm actually really proud of my creation!(*≧∀≦*) I basically made the perfect superfood! Of course it still has some flaws, like after a fruit matures it starts to wither very quickly and will be rotten by the end of the day. There are other minor flaws along with that one, but the rotting time limit is the worst one. But there aren't enough plants in the area to fix those flaws, so I can only let it be.
Now all that's left is to name it...would now be a good time to mention I'm not very good with names? Let's see...Armageddon? No. Superfruit? Too basic. Forbidden fruit? Ehh.
See? I can't do it. My life's work has led me to create this masterpiece that will be acclaimed around the world as the fruit of the gods!!!

...ah, whatever, I'll just give this one a throwaway name, and make better food at a later date with better names.
So let's see, I'll call it...Kami. Yep, we're sticking with that. The Kami fruit.
With the Kami fruit ripening and the sun rising, I head back to the inn. On my way there I see bony figures waking up for the day and at least one from each household seems to be heading in the direction of the river.
I make my way through the window, landing back on the man's clothes. I wasn't paying attention last night, but now that it's bright out, I noticed the man was Conroy, the terrible cook.
Waking up around the time as everyone else, the groups heads down for breakfast. Enjoying their meal that consisted of the same ingredients as last night, the guys start discussing ideas thought up last night. Most are struck down, because they aren't long-term fixes. Before the conversation ends, hurried footstep and faint yelling are heard outside. The sounds come closer until-
"ANNABELLE ANNABELLE COME SEE THIS!"
A skinny young man rushes in with a confused and slightly excited voice.
Annabelle, hearing her name being called, walks out of the kitchen," Tommy? What's wrong?"
"You won't believe me if I tell you! You gotta come see it for y'self!"
Annabelle follows the lively man, along with the rest of the curious diner, which include both visitors and citizens. They make their way to the lake. Seeing the new plant that spread over half of the outline of the lake, Annabelle asks while stunned,"This...where did these plants come from?"
Sven asks,"Were they not here yesterday?"
Annabelle absentmindedly shakes her head. The curious townsfolk investigate the new plant. Finding the "fruit", everyone looks at it inquisitively.
"Is it edible?"
"Might be poisonous..."
"How did it grow so quickly?"
"I've never seen anything like it."
That last comment was from Sven's dad, the leader of the merchant caravans. He picks a Kami fruit and observes it. Scrunching his eyebrows together, he states,"I've seen many plants in my lifetime, but I've never seen one that looks like this..."
Tommy, the young man from earlier excitedly says,"Let's open one up."
