Exodus plant

The Exodus plant, also known in the old days of Earth as the Dandelion flower, was, when bloomed, a small, flat, yellow flower, but when in seeding was a white plant with a number of small delicate pappas. When blown by the wind the seeds inside of them scattered off from the central plant and be distributed randomly around the nearby surrounding area, being carried by the wind to new ground to be fertilised in.

The plant was common, and was one of a number of genetic files held in the arc banks of the first Human travellers to Proxima Centauri, recreating them from their DNA sequence through genetic engineering. They could be seen all around the wild fields of Proxima Centauri, to the north of the White Palace in the city of Majesteria.

Humans gave the flowers special religious importance. As the seeds are blown randomly across the air by the power of the wind from the central orb, Humans saw it as highly symbolic of mankind's own quest in the stars, as mankind started out from a central orb (the Earth), but had by this point been blown across the winds (often solar winds in a poetic, imaginative sense) to be fertilised on a hundred different planets. In this cycle of spreading, burying themselves in foreign soil, then growing again to produce new seeds, mankind saw reflected its own self-created story, and thus elevated it to becoming a sacred plant, one that represented their exodus from ancient Earth to the new lands, something uniquely created by the Mother Gaia (the corporeal embodiment of the Earth, and therefore oxygen, fertility, life and ultimately Humanity itself). Hence why the plant was renamed from its original name status. Often they were planted across their churches (called Greenhouses), adorned in pots around pools of water beneath the central oak tree that would grow at the far end of the House.
