Common Plants (Web Novel)

The Ascendance of a Bookworm world has its own fruits and vegetables, some resembling the ones known from Earth in some attributes.

Ediles are a type of fruit found in Ehrenfest that produce a sticky juice. Ediles are used in the papermaking process at the Rozemyne Workshop.

Meryls are an avocado-like fruit. Myne uses the vegetable oil to make rinsham, but it is commonly used to cook.

Potatoffels are a vegetable resembling Earth's potatoes. Myne used them to make Steamed Potatoes, for instance.

Ranshels are fruits that are tasty and easy to eat. They have a core which is normally not eaten.

Degrovas (デグルヴァ Deguruva) are a type of leaf that, when put in water, makes the water sticky. They are found in Illgner, and are used in the papermaking process.

Fisha is a kind of edible plant that grows in Illgner.

Rezzuch (レズーク Rezuuku) is a vegetable found in Illgner. They look like plums with zucchini flavour, also prepared like zucchini.

Trauperle (トラオペルレ, Toraoperure) is a fruit that grows in Illgner. Too bitter to serve as food, it's sticky juices are used as glue by the locals. It is also used as a component in specialized kinds of plant paper produced by the Rozemyne Workshop. Paper made with Trauperle is unusually silky smooth and drys in less than two bells time. It keeps it's shape very well when bent, making it ideally suited for making playing cards.

Fallold is a normally sweet fruit that can be made into juice. It is sour when harvested too early in the season.

A summer fruit used for rinsham instead of Meryls.

Taue fruits are fruits collected for the Star Festival in Ehrenfest. They are like water balls. If the taue fruits absord enough mana, they change into trombe seeds.

A fruit from a feytree that grows from the tree only in winter mornings. The tree it comes from is almost transparent, like glass or ice. One would warm up the branch that the parue fruit hangs from, usually by using their bare hands, which weakens the branch enough for the fruit to drop off. Parue fruits are primarily used as winter food or chicken feed, and Myne manages to turn the chicken feed into paruecakes, known as pancakes on Earth.
