Q-LEFT W-RIGHT
CONGRATULATIONS!
Welcome to the herb & fibre corperation.For your
monthly trial your first job is to collect octol-
spice flowers on Sirius A.
This is not as easy as you think.Firstly the spice
is rare.Only a few plants grow on Sirius A,you will
be appointed to a tree and be expected to keep the
plant alive.
This is done simply by collecting rain drops.Rain
comes regular each day on Sirius A,but doesn't last
very long.Also the dry season is on its way so the
rain will get shorter each day.
Oh!There are a few tips when working on sirius A:
1)The water drops are large,this is due to the thin
atmosphere on the planet,so your container will
only handle four drops at a time.
2)Just go up to the tree at any time to feed it.
3)It is nearly the dry season so the giant eek bugs
are in the air,these drink the sap out of the
tree.
4)Rumours have it that a red plant will repell the
insects when picked.
Well good luck,and if you do well there could be a
promotion in it for you.
