Inktober 2019 #14: Sweetpetal FlyonaCultivated In Sky Buddy World For Its Namesake Petals. They Are A

Inktober 2019 #14: Sweetpetal Flyona Cultivated in Sky Buddy World for its namesake petals. They are a common sweetener there popular in tea. They are exported for the annual Tea Festival, held primarily in central Wing Alayna. The petals melt easily into tea, and are thus very convenient, especially for an often-exported item.

Inktober 2019 #18: Inkpetal Dyenas

As the name implies, these flowers contain strong ink dyes, favored by Fashion Buddys for creating thick, vibrant colors. They can, of course, obtain dyes from a variety of other sources, but Inkpetals are longer-lasting than other available dyes and can be used to create colorful inks as well. 

Inktober 2019 #7: Song Tulip The namesake of Batulia Songlianne, the northernmost continent. The Song Tulip is a legendary flower that is said to hold a very small Fairy Buddy within its petals. The flower gives off a soft red glow and a faint hum, and is warm enough to melt the snow surrounding it. For this and other reasons, the Song Tulip is considered sacred in those parts. It is not to be plucked or used in any way, lest the fairy within it be disturbed.

Inktober 2019 #20: Sappora Flower An unusual flower with few known uses. Its appeal is mostly in its aesthetics, and it is surprisingly easy to care for. The flower can grow indoors or outdoors, but is much more vigorous outdoors, or if put out to sun at least during the day. In spite of its bright pink petals, it is not very sweet. The leaves, too, are bland. It is best appreciated visually than gastronomically.

Inktober 2019 #17: Flarowan Pikana A blossom that prefers warm summer nights. It stores up energy in the day and releases it at night in a brilliant display. They are beloved sights during the Tea Festival, particularly on drier nights. On days when it rains it will not open much at night, and give off little energy. The petals are actually sweeter when giving off energy, so they are preferred prepared and served quickly. The petals will continue to glow after they are plucked, but only for three hours. That is why a quick preparation and serving are optimal for sweeter teas.

Inktober 19 #21: Liifa Minitra a.k.a Lifiana Variati A miniature tree with a characteristic swirl-shaped mark on its bark. Lifiana Variati, as its secondary name implies, is well known for the large variety of leaves it grows. It's sort of like a grab bag to find one- you never know quite what you're going to get with each leaf. Lifiana Variatis are raised traditionally for the Tea Festival. Each year the tea made from the best and most tea-suitable leaves of a Variati Minitra is completely different, and certainly makes for some excitement during the long months of the rainy season.
