Blue Bliss fruit

The blue bliss fruits are grown in the northern and southern parts of Getherican where the winters are the coldest and the summers a are relative mild. Blue bliss is unlike any other plant in Getherican in the fact that it grows best in the cold winters with lots of snow minimal sunlight. Being in the same family as pomegranates, Blue bliss have a hard exterior shell that is the same deep blue color as the seeds that are protected inside the plant. Harvested annually during the Winter’s harvest festival, the blue bliss helps keep many small towns able to stay afloat financially. The blue bliss are hard to come by since so many of them are harvested and immediately sold to herbalists and medicine men, This also means they are very expensive and can run you up to 10 go in places near the equator. The blue bliss’s main use, and what makes it so expensive, is that when the seeds are ground into a pulp and applied to a wound, it blocks all pain for a few days. An added bonus is that once you have used all the seeds the shell is sweet and can be made into a jam.
