Clamberberrienne
Clamberberries seem like animals because they’ve adapted to clamber towards light. But they really don’t think or feel. The Clamberberrienne people use the berries in all aspects of their life. They harness the berries for transportation or work. They get nourishment and medicines from the insides, and turn scales and horns into tools and weapons. They stretch hides into dwellings and gliders, or sun-dry and shrink them into clothing. They use the berries to craft the enchanted weeding wombs, where new beings, born of fused spirit forces, gestate.
