Honestly, given how densely they were planted, having only four Magic Plants express such thoughts... was a little underwhelming.
But there was nothing he could do about that. Magic Plants willing to evolve and choose a different path were exceedingly rare to begin with.
Every Magic Plant that had survived until now had endured long ages.
They were ancient beings. From birth, generation after generation had grown according to set patterns and predetermined paths.
It was the easiest path to follow, and one that had already been fixed.
