Oleander
is a species of poisonous flowering shrubs that grown in the desert around West Philadelphia and the Pyramid of the Scorpion King.
Black oleander flowers were often planted in graveyards and gifted to the sickest patients. But more importantly, black oleander was sought after for its alchemical properties. The flowers could be used to extract vitriol – a thick, dark-colored sap with a syrupy-sweet aroma. That vitriol could be mixed with certain types of alchemical sublimates to create elixirs of necrotic resistance.
Some believed that black oleander had properties that could halt the spreading of necrosis.
