Chi’Thi

• Edible Flora Chamber: lush vegetation covers floor to ceiling above springy, moist moss that compresses underfoot; overhead braided rings mist recycled Tifa.
• Fern-like plants bear False Eyes fruit, ombré from yellow through orange to rich red; shimmering green lichen drapes the walls.
• Acoustics Chamber: a long, smooth, horn-like hallway opens into expanding circular walls that intensely amplify footsteps and the distant Tifa-core hum.
• Swakami sleeping alcoves sit at varied heights along the wall strata, their warm moss used as blankets.

• Swakami residents and travelers
• Bioluminescent fungi, bulbs, algae, lichen, and edible jungle plants

• The Acoustics Chamber’s amplification makes stealthy movement difficult, but its intense echo can also obscure the source of distant sounds.

The Swakami use this living network; circular braided structures rise through ceilings and floors, while wall strata hold resting alcoves where Swakami mold into warm, lime-green moss. Light shifts from bright cyan Hinte Bulbs in upper levels and gathering areas to dim purple in sleeping chambers and dim red in dangerous depths; wetter passages hold mulberry-pink Burst Bulbs, emerald algae, and lime-green lichen.

A new, unfamiliar rhythm is echoing from the Acoustics Chamber, and the Swakami want someone to discover what is making it.

Braided walls of pale, soft-grit material weave into interconnected passages, their coral-like surfaces lit by cyan Hinte Bulbs and the steady pulse of the distant Tifa core. Low gravity and dense, liquid-feeling air carry a deep hum as the tunnels open into mossy alcoves, a lush underground jungle, and a long horn-shaped passage.
