Crocodile Seeds
What worlds transpire when colonial violence sparks radically different beings to meet?
Potentially climate-resilient seeds from 140 yr. dead, Singapore crocodile: Australian geneticists divine seed origins. Finnish farmers coax them to grow.
The same crocodile hosts a spirit of a 19th C. Malayan tin mine mystic/anti colonial fighter. Shrines for this spirit persist along the mangroves and rivers of Perak, which before limestone mine devastation, and the British, and Chinese tin wars, and Malay royal dominance, was home to the Orang Semai, their forests, cave refuges and crocodile familiars.
