It seems to have a symbiotic relationship with the environment, which would explain the main source of its power.<BR>Hunting these larger Taintacles would be ideal, I should be able to harvest whatever congealed energy it leaves off for my own purposes.

+crimsonrevelations.research.mana_pods.stage.0=This strange, pod-like plant is only found growing on trees in Magical Forests. They grow very slowly and when harvested, usually only yield one or two colorful beans.<BR>These beans, that I call Mana Beans, contain concentrated amounts of essentia. They can also be consumed for more knowledge on research, though the results afterwards are often a bit unpredictable.<PAGE>They can be replanted on the roof of a block in a Magical Forest, but cultivation proves to be difficult and time-consuming. Bone meal also seems to have no effect on them unlike other plants.<BR>Wild mana pods usually only produce primal aspects, though it is said that planting beans adjacent to existing ones sometimes result in beans with compound aspects.<BR>Fully learning the proper way to farm a specific aspect that I really need would be useful for my studies.

 crimsonrevelations.research.cult_bestiary.stage.0=I am dedicating this side of the Revelations chapter for any of the different types of Crimson Cult members I encounter. The cultists seem to be human or at least related to humans. However, something is off about them. Their eyes are of a striking glowing red, and their bodies seem to have a higher constitution than a normal body would, surviving wounds that I would not be able to.<PAGE>Whatever process they use to "enhance" themselves is both curious, and at the same time strangely sinister. Interestingly, I can't help but notice the similarity of Angry Zombies to them. Perhaps the remains of failed expeditions?<BR>Of particularly interesting note, they seem to have some form of rank system, or at least that's what I was able to translate. I will note down more about each of the members upon scanning any of them with my Thaumometer.
