Fraet Island!
All activity on the island seemed normal at first glance. However, in the depths of its underground mine, was a cocoon that had formed.
Attached in the walls of the flight of stairs descending into the mine were torches. They looked like torches, but instead of maintaining a fire, they released light through bioluminance.
They served their purpose, but in reality, were Nirclicks. As each Torch released a faint light, more of them were needed to properly light up the place. Hence, on the wall adjacent to every step was a torch.
They were all releasing pollen nonstop. The Free Humans living on the island, were for some reason, constantly shuttling up and down the flight of stairs. As they moved up the stairs, the Nirclicks sent pollen into their bodies.
Upon reaching the surface, the Free Humans gorged on food and lazily crawled back. The lower the stairs they went, the quicker their pace became, for the fat deposits on their body was reducing at a rapid pace.
