Kara
Kara trees are rough-barked, fruit-bearing plants that grow to a height of 40 feet or more. The resin from its branches and leaves can irritate bare flesh.
The fruit of the kara tree, which can be picked throughout the summer, is fist-sized and squarish. When unripe, it's spotted yellow and putrid-tasting, causing severe cramps if eaten. When ripe, it is red-spotted, chewy, and somewhat sweet, and forms a staple for many people.
Spiced, stewed kara-fruit is shared in rituals to Heironeous. A kara tree filled with ripe fruit is one of the symbols of Atroa.
