Sage's Grass needs fertile lands to grow, but also ambient magic. It feeds on that [[Mana]] of its surroundings, which is then stored and amplified inside the plant.<ref name="6.36E"/> The older the Sage's Grass, the more magical it is; some ancient Sage's Grass will have more magic than a year-old stalk.<ref name=":0">[https://wanderinginn.com/2023/07/16/9-54-c/ Chapter 9.54 C]</ref>

While it is not the ''most'' magical stuff, large concentrations of Sage's Grass attract monsters, and it turns animals that feed on it into more monstrous versions.
