Blurb/lore:  "Near the running waters of Zamna, nature's very own pest control sits. " - Excerpt from a horticutural book within the Cassie's Crypt

Old tales say there was an ancient serpent within the forests of Zamna, a hungry and careless beast. It fed and fed, leaving a trail of bones and trash behind. It had no care for the environment. It only ate what was considered the cream of the crop! Nothing less. Then because of it's over-consumption, a prey depletion hit, it refused to eat what was necessary. Stubborn till the end, it passed, but with it's last words, it didn't want to die like this. It believed to leave a strong legacy, a tale that people will talk for ages, not for him to die a "pathetic" death. Subsequentially, it was "blessed" and turned into a plant. He wanted to leave a legacy, then it shall be to nature's benefit's—helping restore the cycle of the island. 

The pitcher plant was a play on words as it looks like a Bamboo Pit Viper!
