CASE FILE AN-SP-004: SWAMP BLOOM

Known Behaviors

Swamp Bloom is believed to be one of the earliest-recorded Bala, forming naturally at the biological shelf between Fathom Deep and Germinal emergence points. It constantly extrudes wet plant matter, moss, and unidentified spores. Wherever it walks, the ground becomes soft and emits a low bubbling sound. It appears to feed on ambient decay and prefers areas of rot or runoff. Growth accelerates in confined areas.

Field Notes

• — Floral and fungal bloom trails appear even in sterile, sealed environments.
• — Occasionally emits a fog of sweet-smelling vapor that causes agents to lose track of time.
• — “It doesn’t just walk — it *grows forward*. Every step is something new.”
