| Ekhor: A small flowering plant, the leaves can be made into tea, the stalk has no known purpose, the Kentae, a small fruit, sprouts out of the top of the plant. The fruit; is widely eaten by cattle, but it's taste is bitter and the substance is hard and chewy. It is sometimes eaten as travel food, but holds a lack of vital nutrients. The tea gives energy, though taking large concentrations to make anything worthwhile. | |

| Can you eat Kentae fruit? And do you boil the leaves in hot water to make the tea? | |

| Thanks! So do they dry out the leaves to make the tea, or do they boil them fresh? | |

| Most of the nutrients are found in the vascular system of the leaves, so they are best used when new. When dead and dry; the best thing to do would be to crush into a powder, because 'twould be hard to get anything out of dead leaves through boiling. | |
