Cirrose Parasite vissi

Type: Primal

Summary: A relic drawn from the consuming Zephyra Wilds, the Cirrose Parasite vissi suffers its wielder more than obeys them. This invasive species did not survive on Nyessem by being gentle, and the bloodshed it brings to your enemies will make that painfully clear.

Location: Lady Maivaldius' retainers at the Zephyra Wilds Conundrum harvest these vissi, and they are available to all Elanthians in exchange for aevit.

Ability	Lush, lethal, and without remorse, this parasitic vine buries itself deep into flesh and leaves its seed behind. Should the seed take root, the victim's carcass will detonate from within and yield an aortic amber: a beautiful gemstone born of blood.	Wrap yourself in a lattice of parasitic vines and let their feral appearance serve as a warning: aggression incurs a cost. The vines remember every strike, and they do not let debts go unpaid.

Additional Note	Aortic Amber may be of the following qualities Low quality: a chunk of turbid aortic amber — The amber's surface is pitted and dull, its traditional golden hue virtually overtaken by a cloudy scarlet that veils the entire gem. At its core sits a shriveled embryonic vine, its outline little more than a dark smudge within the sanguine haze. Mid quality: a piece of veined aortic amber — Semi-transparent and casting a sickly yellowish glow, the smooth golden gem is marbled by crimson veins that partially obscure a budding embryonic vine trapped within its resinous tomb. High quality: a shard of pristine aortic amber — Flawless and pellucid, the amber casts a warm glow as gentle as its honey-gold hue. A vibrant embryonic vine sits perfectly preserved at the center, enveloped in a spiderweb of gossamer scarlet threads so delicate and precise that they appear as part of the gem's design rather than an impurity.
