Darja shovel another bucket of rabbit dropping. Shit as Tarla would say. Leaning against the shovel as she looks around the rabbit pen. Seeing thirty of the rabbits hopping around. Soon it will be the time to butcher them for meat and skin. It takes about a month to get about fifty rabbits to spawn and grow. Master Jack said on his world it takes several months for rabbits to get big. Glad goblins are not like rabbits, too many babies so fast. Make her sad that all of her children are gone, either dead or scatter to other tribes. Signing, she picks up the bucket of shit while carrying it through the north gate to the corn garden. Seeing an acre of corn only a foot high after planting it two suns ago make her heart swell. Scooping out the shit, she sprinkles it on each plant until she runs out.

Upon hearing a noise to her left she grabs her dagger. Turning to stare toward the noise in the carrot garden only to see a strange plant in the center. Setting down the bucket she advance as she stares at it. A tall stalk much like a corn plant, with a lot of leaves at its base like the cabbage plant.

A strange pod hangs down from the top of the stalk. Seeing several vines hanging down the side of the stalk. She watches as the vines start pulling up baby carrots and toss them away.

A cold fury of anger went through her, seeing all her hard work being destroyed by a plant, a weed at that! With a snarl, she leaps upon the plant only to be knocked away by the vine. The pod opens up into a mouth that dribbles acid that burns in the soil. Dodging another spit of acid by rolling several feet away. She climbs to her feet she scampers through the gate to the rabbit pen. Getting her shovel thinking maybe she should get Master Jack but shake head no! This is her garden, her battle. Bending down and scooping up the bucket out of the corn patch. Heading back toward the weed tossing the bucket at the plant. Only for it to dodge it as she swung the shovel hitting it in the head with a thud. The weed flails about with it vines accidentally knocking her down. Forcing her to roll away for ten points of damage. Wiping the blood from her mouth seeing the plant pull up its roots. Grabbing the shovel getting a firm grip on the handle, she swings it again hitting the stalk. Bending it to one side dumping more acid on the ground near her. The smell almost gags her and not much can gag a goblin.

The weed shot out its vines and intertwining itself on the shovel handle turning it into a tug a war. Pulling really hard the weed slowly begin to pull itself out of the ground. Pulling along with it was some type of bulb-like objects. It let’s go of the shovel send her and it stumbling away. Panting she watch it pull its roots from the ground and waddle itself to the edge of the garden and replant itself.

Brushing herself off, “a walking plant!” she notices one of the bulbs in the ground somehow broke free from the plant. Upon inspecting it then the plant itself.

Spitter potato, +1 Fortitude, +1 Might, the item can be used in cooking or eaten raw.

Spitter potato plant: Level 1, eats small rodents and birds do not like other plants near its roots.

Her eyes got big, “not big weed.”

Looking at where the potato is sticking out of the ground. She sees that was where she accidentally dump a lot of rabbit shit the other day. Looking at the spot, then at the plant, then back at the spot it finally dawns on her that it wanted the rich soil. Maybe if she plants a small raised bed for it and set up another one to get it to move when the potatoes are ready to fall off. She might get to harvest this new potato. Jumping up she runs to find Master Jack.

“You want me to do what?” Jack said.

She squat and show a foot high and three feet by three feet square area. Then she put up two fingers showing him that she wanted two of them by pointing at two spots.

Every time he looks toward the plant she tries to get in front of him forgetting she lot smaller than he is.

Jack was confused over why she wanting two nine square foot of raised beds. While he was puzzling over that he sees a plant moving in the carrot garden that doesn't look safe to be around. His eyes widen as it dawns on him that this was a carnivore plant of some type. Lifting his hand to cast a spell only to see Darja holding her hands in the air to block him.

“Darja get out of the way there a dangerous plant behind you.”

“No, no, no, Potato, ”holding up a potato in front of his face.”

Grabbing her waving hand and inspect the potato, his eyes widen and look at the plant.

“Okay, not going to kill Potato plant.”

She watches for a while as he built two raised beds with ten feet of space between them. After showing him twice how far apart they need to be. By looking around the hole it was pulling up the carrots. The elemental came and dump some dirt filling each one up halfway. Then she got Jack to get it to bring more rabbit shit and put in the first one. Stopping Jack from filling the second one not wanting the plant to move between the two just yet.

Pushing Master Jack back toward the settlement, “you go build many hovels, I work in the garden, go, go! Shooing away." Waving hands in a shooing motion. She went to clean up some of the pull carrots to save to feed the rabbits tomorrow. After two hours she finishes weeding the wheat garden, she receives a prompt.

Darja started to glow changing by growing a foot taller. Her hand becomes more nimble, as her claws become smaller. Her legs don't bend as much allowing not to have to crouch.

Looking around a bit surprised she sees the Spitter settling into it raise the bed. Slowly walking over to the area it was at and pulled up two potatoes putting them in her harvest bag. Killing one of the rabbits and skin it. She tosses the body next to the plant and watches it slowly lift it with its vines and place it in its mouth and close it. Hugging herself she hums as she heads home to cook.
