(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.
