Prickly PearFood

Waxy magenta fruit shaped like a small egg, studded with hair-fine spines that embed in fingers almost invisibly. Peeled properly, the flesh inside is pale green, wet, and aggressively sweet.

Chronicle

Lore

Gathered off the flats-cacti through the dry end of summer by pickers wearing leather gauntlets that have done nothing else for a decade. The pear is scored at the poles, rolled between two cloths to break the spines free, then peeled while still wrapped. Travelers who skip the cloth trick carry the spines home with them and learn not to skip the cloth trick again.
