Ashrebubug

Ashrenbubug was discovered by Ashley and Karen as they explored the woods near the base of the Serendipity Cascades in Ourlandia. Ashrenbubug stood only 6 inches from the ground. The leaves were grouped in eights and were on either side of the plant. It looked like the leaf groups were big hands beckoning anyone or anything closer.

Unlike the other plants found in Ourlandia, Ashrenbubug was yellow and black with a purple center. There was no green to be found on the plant. As we wondered through the woods we noticed that everytime we came near Ashrenbubug the bugs vanished. It was like there was a wall of protection around the plant. With further investigation we discovered that the aroma from the plants stamen served as a bug repellent.

Upon further investigation, there was a sweet, mouth-watering aroma coming from some part of the plant. We sniffed the air and kept sniffing the air until we knelt down and lay prostrate on the ground as if sniffing the soil. We wafted the scent toward our noses. We were stunned to discover the aroma coming from the base of the plant not even an inch from the ground. We pulled the plant up by its roots to investigate more and nibbled the roots with hesitation. WOW, what a wonderful tasting root! Now we will not have to go hungry any longer.
