Blood peaches can be found throughout the world of Toralym. They are originally from the small, southwestern country of Allim, located beside Mithryr and Tosh. They are a very juicy fruit, while the fuzzy skin is crimson color, the flesh is white as snow. Oddly enough, the juice of blood peaches are blood red. The explanation behind this being that the skin contains the pigments of red, while the flesh has a high sugar content. Most people and races in Allim and the surrounding countries where blood peaches have been exported to, know that the skin is a source of certain vitamins, and rarely ever peel the fruit.

Small nitpick--do they actually know about vitamins, endocosmically speaking? It seems to me that to use the category "vitamins" implies knowledge of molecules and stuff, which might or might not fit with your theme for Allim. Perhaps they might be aware that eating this fruit (and its skin, in particular) is an excellent way to avoid certain diseases, kind of the way British sailors knew to always bring limes on board their ships-of-the-line to avoid scurvy?

These sound neat, CammieSarah! :D Do blood peaches have any special abilities like healing or anything?

I'm so proud of you for taking the time to develop this story first. :D

"It is called 'passive righteousness' because we do not have to labor for it..It is not righteousness that we work for, but righteousness we receive by faith. This passive righteousness is a mystery that someone who does not know Jesus cannot understand.In fact, Christians do not completely understand it and rarely take advantage of it in their daily lives..When there is any fear or our conscience is bothered, it is a sign that our 'passive' righteousness is out of sight and Christ is hidden.
The person who wander away from 'passive' righteousness has no other choice but to live by 'works' righteousness.If he does not depend on the work of Christ, he must depend on his own work.So we must teach and continually repeat the truth of this 'passive' or 'Christian' righteousness so that Christians continue to hold to it and never confuse it with 'works' righteousness - Martin Luther

Fascinating idea. I might be uncomfortable eating something connected in name to "blood", although I probably wouldn't be if I grew up in your world, come to think of it. Very original and well thought out. :D
