(Equisetum)               
                                          
                                          
                                          
         The Plant          
                                          
 The  Equisetum  Is A  Plant  Much  Older 
 Than  Ferns,  Which  Are  In  Turn  Much 
 Older Than Most Trees. It'S Light  Green 
 To  Yellow  In  Color  And  Is  Slightly 
               Transparent.               
                                          
 The Plant Has A Spine. Each Vertebra  Is 
 Stacked  Upon The Next,  With  Spokelike 
 Ribs Radiating  Outward. Even  So,  It'S 
 Very  Light, Being Hollow.  It'S Roughly 
 The  Height Of A Foxes Tail, And  Shares 
            A Similar Plumage.            
                                          
 It  Likes Partial  Shade  And  Very Damp 
                   Areas                  
                                          
                                          
                                          
          In Magic          
                                          
 When A  Colony Numbers  High Enough,  It 
 Slices  The  Air  In  The   Forest  Into 
 Separate Planes,  A  Few  Centimeters In 
 Height.  Time  Can   Get  Diffracted  In 
 These,  Hitting   Each  In   Turn  In  A 
       Slightly Different Angle, And      
         Eventually Spread Thin.
