The Midnight Plant is a Sunless Skies Story Event.

Story description[]

Its black and purple leaves drink in the light. Its green vines pulse, spreading throughout the monastery. The floor is ankle-deep in a mulch of fallen leaves, winking with the odd radiant flower. Your head pounds, your memory paging through pain and regret faster than a demented zoetrope. The Midnight Plant rustles, its flowers puckering for a moment. It extends a vine; thorned, bloodied.

Actions Requirements Effects Notes
Take the vine
It flexes in front of you.
Midnight's grip
The thorns dig into your flesh. The vine wraps around your arm. Your vision fades.

Darkness. Silence.

A heartbeat.

Yours.
Burn the Midnight Plant
It would be so easy to destroy this... thing.
Flames in the night
The air is damp. Your tinderbox takes several attempts to spark. The Midnight Plant whips at you with its vines, thorns lashing your flesh. But it cannot stop you. Once lit, the fire is unstoppable. It burns wet and indigo, the smell of tea and charcoal. It spreads through the vines and into the tea fields, where the monks burn as they flail blindly with their watering cans and try to stamp the flames out with their bare feet. Others flee, watching their home burn until the flames finally die out, and the marsh is free to reclaim the stones.
