The upunu was a plant native to Ishtar.
Biology[]
A bushy plant which looked vaguely like a soft-bodied manzanita that were profuse on the hillsides. Owoc browse upon this plant but only could only fed on those occasional bushes which grew at the fringes of the valley floor. However even on the valley floor, the plant died off because of the uduwo. The human inhabitants of Ishtar eventually began to harvest the plant as a crop for the owoc. The gukuy also cultivate upunu but they use the plant to feed the uduwo which they harvest for food.
