The world below came clearly into view.
It was a small valley, though not particularly large.
Mountains surrounded it on all sides, leaving only the sky above and the cliff they had come from as exits.
Sunlight could not reach down from above, yet glowing moss illuminated the entire valley floor.
When everyone saw what lay inside the valley, they all froze.
The first thing that caught their eyes...

They stretched as far as the eye could see, a dense, multicolored array that decorated the entire lakeshore like a fairyland.
Some flowers were as large as millstones, their petals layered one over another.
Some grasses were as fine as strands of hair, their entire bodies sparkling and translucent.
Some plants were as small as moss, yet gave off a rich medicinal fragrance.

One plant after another, one cluster after
