Ecology

Rahn plants are generally only found near deserts, and only if its local region has an [[Elder Tree] present to provide the enhanced nutrition and energy allocation required for large fields. Dansali are credited with cultivating and domesticating the plant and are believed to have done so for thousands of years.

Gigor are a common species of rodent that cohabits lands planted with Rahn.
