They would fall out of trees when ripened, often aiming for passersby. They would wait until there was a gust of wind and then they would land on someones head. The impact would release spores that would be carried by the wind to other trees. The spores would sprout branches that mimicked the texture of the bark and new “fruit” would grow out of the ends to start the process all over again. The spores also caused hallucinations when inhaled.
