siren's vine.              
                     
                                          
 for  thousands  of  years  known only to 
 "witches",  by  which  i  mean   various 
 cunning swamp dwellers  
    amphibian    
   lizards,  humanoid  frogs,  girls,   
  actual witches, and lots of insects   
  and other such gnats  
  that did or did 
 not use  it  (some would  even cultivate 
 it for use in  hunting) or  maybe  would 
 just  avoid  it  altogether.  the   dark

 slithering across it?  
    the   plant   
  likes  mutilation;  it's agressive;

  cords, which it will fill with seeds  
   and  as  such  destroy  completely
