Silverapple

Overview:
Silverapple is a rare, translucent fruit growing on ancient, glassy trees scattered across the Pale Country. It is infamous for its effects on human perception of time and memory.

Appearance:
The apple’s skin is almost transparent with a faint silvery sheen. Its flesh is firm and juicy with a subtle metallic aftertaste reminiscent of fading memories.

Behaviour & Effects:
Consumption causes brief episodes of time slipping, where individuals experience past and future moments out of order.
Excessive consumption may lead to temporal dislocation, trapping the individual within recursive memories or non-linear time loops.
The fruit appears unpredictably and is often found glowing faintly in moonlight or under ritual lights.

Folklore & Signs:
Known locally as the “Fruit of Forgetting,” it is believed to be eaten by those wishing to escape grief or trauma.
A Silverapple falling without cause is considered a dire omen of impending madness or loss.
Often incorporated into mourning rituals or magical ceremonies involving memory.

Summary for Field Operatives:
Avoid ingestion without strict supervision. Monitor for reports of temporal disorientation or memory lapses near Silverapple groves. Exercise caution in retrieval or handling.
