Some observations and investigations on the strange glows that seem to be everywhere.


    Observation #001


    Specimen: a leaf from Specimen #009


    Note: I have colored the green glow that emanates from the leaf.


    I have decided to investigate closely this strange phenomenon.


    The green glow almost seems to bubble away from the leaf, slowly losing brightness and fading away, I will try and see if I can ascertain the properties of the motes in any way.

    <td style="width: 50.0363%">dissipation appears to be slowed by at least a factor of 2 (Note: need proper timekeeping, water clock?)</td>

    The remainder of the leafs glow dissipated during this time, and I quickly collected another specimen of the exact same type.
