Pyric Moss

A salve-producing moss used for treating burns. Amon applied it to his wounds after the Cindershorn incident, refusing the healers.

Pyric Moss grows in thick, damp patches on shaded rock faces and cave entrances across Arietis. When crushed, it releases a cool, green-tinged gel that soothes burns and reduces inflammation. The Aries discovered its properties early in their settlement — on a volcanic world, burn treatment is not a luxury but a necessity.

Ino cultivates patches of Pyric Moss near every settlement, ensuring a steady supply. Its cooling properties are enhanced when mixed with cooled Moltreed sap. Amon's stubborn use of it — scraping it directly from rocks and pressing it to his burns while refusing all other aid — became a quiet joke among the Chosen.
