"It's actually a seed? But how could it survive being burned?" Old Man Wu still hadn't figured it out.
"Burning it won't destroy it. Any attack only feeds it. What you thought you burned away was actually just a batch of defective seeds that died first because they couldn't withstand such a tremendous energy output.

Of course, once they no longer had elemental mana attacking them, their growth was naturally restricted. Thus, I concluded that these things relied on mana to reproduce.
As for their weakness, it was simple: they didn't discriminate among controllers. In other words, once someone found their controlling incantation, the seeds would certainly turn on that person. It was a double-edged sword in itself.
